A 19-year-old girl was reportedly kidnapped and molested by her neighbour and his friend at Devarachikkanahalli in Hulimavu on Friday evening.

Police said they had arrested Suresh, a welder, and his friend Kumar, a mechanic, based on a complaint by the girl who works as a maid. The victim and the suspects were known to each other.

On Thursday evening, the girl said she returned home early from work and had to wait outside as the house keys were with her father who hadn’t yet come. Just then, Suresh, a neighbour, walked up to her and asked why was she sitting outside. She told him that she was waiting for her father. He then told her he knew where her father worked and offered to take her there.

But instead of taking her to her father’s workplace, Suresh is said to have taken her to his friend Kumar’s house located nearby. He then asked her to wait in the house, saying he has to attend to a minor task. The duo, however, got drunk and also made the girl drink liquor. They then began molesting her. But the girl said she fooled them as they were inebriated and escaped, police said quoting her complaint.

The girl said she ran to her house and narrated the incident to her father who had arrived in the meantime and was looking for her. They then went to the Hulimavu police station and lodged a complaint.

Police said they had booked the duo for kidnap and molestation and were carrying out investigation.
