Bengaluru: A Bengaluru woman took to social media and alleged that Flipkart delivery agent forcefully barged into her home and exposed himself after she repeatedly refused his request to use her toilet.
A complaint was filed after Bengaluru Police took note of her post, and based on the complaint, the accused identified as Vijay Mallikarjun Kamat was arrested.
The woman alleged that the delivery agent had visited her house to deliver a package and then asked her if he could use the toilet. However, he forcibly entered when she refused and exposed his private parts while coming out of the washroom.
The woman said that she refused his request several times and even suggested that he approach her male neighbours if it was an emergency. “I politely refused multiple times and clearly told him that I do not allow strangers inside my flat. I even suggested that he ask the male neighbours next door since it was an emergency. Despite my repeated refusals, he removed his slippers and forcefully entered my home without my permission,” she wrote in the post.
The woman further alleged that after coming out of the toilet, the delivery agent flashed her. “When he came out of the washroom, he exposed his private parts to me. I felt shocked, violated, humiliated, and completely unsafe in my own home. A woman said, ‘NO!’ That should have been the end of the conversation. No one has the right to ignore her boundaries or force their way into her home,” she added.
Based on her complaint, a case was registered under Sections 75, 79 and 329(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
Following the incident, Flipkart issued a statement, saying that it as immediately fired the accused involved.
Flipkart said it will be treating the matter with the utmost seriousness. “We take such incidents very seriously and are deeply sorry to hear about the executive’s behaviour.
