Mumbai Crime News: Female Lawyer Molested By Delivery Agent In Andheri West After Payment Dispute

Mumbai: In a shocking incident reported from Andheri West, Mumbai, a 30-year-old woman lawyer was allegedly molested by a delivery agent following a dispute over payment for a parcel. The incident occurred on May 8, and a formal complaint has been lodged at the Amboli Police Station.

According to the complainant, on May 6, her brother had ordered two perfumes from the brand Fogg via Flipkart. On May 8, around 7:50 PM, a delivery agent identifying himself as Altaf Mirza arrived at their residence with the parcel. Since her brother was not at home at the time, the woman accepted the delivery and informed the delivery agent that her brother would transfer the money via PhonePe (GPay). Altaf provided his mobile number (8286019686) and also took her brother’s contact information.

However, at 8:58 PM the same evening, Altaf returned to the house, claiming he hadn’t received the payment and demanded the parcel back. The woman returned both packages due to the unresolved payment issue.

It was at this point that Altaf allegedly molested her, touching her inappropriately on her chest and abdomen, and hurling vulgar abuses before fleeing the scene. Distressed, the woman immediately shut the door and later informed her brother about the entire incident.

On May 9, the victim submitted a written complaint to the Amboli Police. After being contacted by the police on May 15, she filed a formal legal complaint against the accused, demanding strict action and highlighting the need for enhanced safety measures for women. Amboli Police have registered the case and are currently investigating the matter.
