'Bahut cute hai tum': Junkie on Mumbai local eve-teases female cop at Bandra station; video surfaces

Being a police officer at times is a thankless job. No matter what you do, it is very difficult to please people and make them happy. The Mumbai Police also constantly gets insulted, cat-called, abused by unscrupulous elements for reasons unknown.

But we know that being a cop in a city like Mumbai is not an easy job. The Mumbai Police works round the clock, and if we cannot appreciate the hard work they put in, ridiculing and mocking them is at least not called for.

In a video that is going viral on micro-blogging website Twitter, a young man, a suspected drug addict, is seen travelling in a Mumbai local and is seen sitting on the footboard of the local. In the video, he can be seen making ludicrous comments at the female cops stationed on duty in what appears to be Bandra station.

In the video, the man, sitting dangerously alongside another person on the footboard, calls the woman cops 'Madam, cute ho tum' and goes on to say other things that are not clearly audible. It seems he was making a video to be put on social media.

Jeevandhara Sangh, a Mumbai-based NGO group, reported the incident on Twitter tagging the Chief Minister's Office, Mumbai Police and the Government Railway Police.

Mumbai is considered as the safest city for women in the country and incidents like these tarnish the reputation of the metropolis.

Jeevandhara Sangh, a Mumbai-based NGO group, reported the incident on Twitter tagging the Chief Minister's Office, Mumbai Police and the Government Railway Police. They tweeted saying, "Mumbai Police is in our service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, in such a situation, some people are misbehaving with women police by posting videos on social media. Those who insult and molest women should be taught a lesson."

Bandra GRP takes cognisance of matter

According to the Bandra GRP, they have taken cognizance of the video and will take action against the suspects. "The man in the video seems in an inebriated condition, making indecent comments about the lady police officials at the Bandra railway station. We are checking the video content and tracking the suspect," said an official from the Bandra GRP. 

In another recent incident, a Mumbai traffic cop was ill-treated in the Kurla area, where he was attacked by two men after he stopped them for jumping the traffic signal and driving without a helmet. A case was registered against the two accused under sections 353 (assault or use of criminal force to deter a public servant from discharge of his duty), 332 (voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace), 506 (criminal intimidation) and 34 (common insult) of the Indian Penal Code.
