New Delhi, November 26: Two women correspondents of a news channel, while returning home in a vehicle after work, were chased and cornered by a white Indica car near Nizamuddin bridge here last night.
The two women Star News correspondents were returning home from work at night in the company’s car when a white Indica car (HR 38 KT 4373) started chasing them while crossing the Nizamuddin Bridge.
The Indica cornered the Star News car and tried to push it off the road. A person got out from the Indica with a rod in his hands and asked the reporters to get out of the car. When they didn’t come out, he broke the windowpanes and the taillight of the car and started abusing the reporters. He along with his accomplice tried to molest the girls and made attempts to abduct them. But due to the alert driver, they could not succeed in their attempt.
However, the car continued to chase them till the Star News car reached a police picket near Noida border. Meanwhile, the reporters made several calls to PCR, and other reporters to seek immediate help from the police. But there was no police help available. After reaching the police picket, no immediate help was extended. Only after raising a lot of hue and cry, an FIR was finally lodged in the Mayur Vihar police station at around 1.30 a.m.
