But for some odd reason, every time we hear about a woman getting molested at the hands of yet another perpetrator, it gets right under our skin. Because despite several efforts to keep women safe, they really aren’t. Especially till the time we have criminals like this man around, who has gotten accused of molesting as many as 66 women.

Recently nabbed by the Uttar Pradesh police, a man was arrested on Friday in Auraiya after more than 66 complaints were filed against the man for molesting and harassing innocent women. A matter that came to light after a bunch of women called the Women Power Line 1090 and reported their their experiences.
