Aarey police have arrested a 38-year-old man, Ishrat Khan, for allegedly flashing, masturbating and making obscene gestures at women in the Royal Palms and Aarey Colony area. Police said the accused, an egg supplier, regularly visited hotels and shops in the locality to deliver eggs. During these rounds, he allegedly targeted women, exposing himself and making vulgar gestures.

The complainant, a 29-year-old house help, was first harassed on November 24 while she was on her way to work. Shaken, she left the spot immediately and informed her employer, who told her that Khan had behaved the same way with her 20-year-old daughter a few days earlier. They tried looking for the accused, but couldn’t locate him.
