Sexual harassment that thousands of women face in public places has been captured in its most graphic and disgusting form by a Delhi University student who filmed a man masturbating next to her on a crowded bus.In the video, which the student has posted on social media, a middle-aged man is seen exposing and fondling himself, with a bag shielding his activities from most passengers but the young woman sitting next to him. The woman has alleged that he also tried to touch her.The incident took place on February 7, according to the student, when the bus was at Vasant Vihar in south Delhi.Shockingly, the woman shouted at the man but he was unfazed, perhaps encouraged by the lack of any response from other passengers.The student got off the bus and went to the police station to file a complaint for sexual harassment and obscenity in a public place.The man, clearly seen in the video clip, is yet to be arrested.The incident has reinforced questions on the safety of women, especially in Delhi, which was in the global media glare when a 23-year-old died in 2012 after being gang-raped and tortured on a moving bus. Sexual harassment on public transport or in public places, in the form of touching, flashing and masturbation, is not uncommon in the capital.Despite an assurance by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal a few years ago, there were no marshals in the bus and no CCTV either.
