In another Uber related harassment case, a Bengali television actor has alleged that she was thrown out of a cab and threatened by Uber cab driver when she was going for a shoot. Swastika Dutta, a popular Bengali television actor, narrated her ordeal on social media and shared a photo of the driver. The driver has been arrested.
According to Dutta, she had booked the cab from her home on Wednesday morning to go to a studio in south Kolkata for a shoot. However, the driver cancelled her trip-mid way.
"This guy named Jamshed, after picking me up from my location suddenly in the middle of the road he cancelled the trip and asked me to get down from the car," Swastika Dutta wrote on Facebook and shared a photograph of the driver, his phone number and the number plate of the cab.
The actor stated that when she refused to get off the cab, the driver turned the car and took her to his locality. He got down from the car and literally pulled me out... when I lost my temper and started asking for help he threatened me and called other boys," she wrote.
The driver allegedly told Ms Dutta in Bengali, "Do what you want, let`s see what you can do."
"Since I was getting late for my shooting and my unit was waiting for me I had to rush from the incident spot. Later, I spoke to my dad and whatever legal action is needed I shall pursue," Ms Dutta said.
The entire incident took place in a span of half an hour, between 8:15 and 8:45 in the morning. Swastika Dutta said the encounter took place in front of a restaurant near the busy EM bypass in Kolkata.
