Northeast Bar Girl Alleges Molestation by Boss in Delhi

New Delhi, Aug 31 : An employee of a restrobar, hailing from northeast India, has alleged that her boss tried to molest her after he found her watching television during duty hours inside the bar located in L-block of Connaught Place.

The accused is the manager of the bar. New Delhi district police has registered a case of molestation.

The victim, a resident of Manipur, has alleged that her manager first hurled abuses at her and then pushed her off her chair before trying to molest her.

"I was alone on the first floor of the restrobar when he attacked me with a fork. I suffered bruises," the woman told police.

She added that when she raised an alarm other employees of the restrobar rushed to her rescue.

"The accused has accepted that he did scold her but refuted all other charges. We have taken the victim, who has been working at this restaurant-cum-bar for the past three months, to RML Hospital for a medical test. We are investigating the case," said an officer.

Additional commissioner (New Delhi) Shankar Dash said, "As it is a case of molestation against a girl from northeast, we are treating the case seriously."

The girl, who lives with her brother and cousin at Kotla Mubarakpur in south Delhi, vowed that she will never set foot on the restrobar again.

"Now, I do not want to go back to duty. They did not remove me from my post. I left the job on my own volition," she said.
