Allegedly stalked and harassed by her neighbour for several months, a guest teacher at a government school in South Delhi’s Vasant Kunj got him nabbed on Thursday.
Police said this was the second case of stalking registered against the accused Anil Kumar by the woman in the last 20 days. A case had been registered against him on October 8 as well. He was arrested and released on bail.
The accused has been arrested again following the latest case registered against him at Vasant Kunj (South) police station and he has been sent to judicial custody by a local court.
The 25-year-old victim lives with her family in Mahipalpur Extension and is employed as a guest lecturer at a government school in south Delhi’s Devli area.
She told police in her complaint that Kumar had been harassing her for several months before she finally reported him some weeks ago.
“The woman had asked him to keep away, but since the accused did not mend his behaviours towards her, she filed an FIR against him,” said the officer.
A day after being released from jail, the man again visited the woman’s house and told her brother that he would marry her. The brother, a chartered accountant by profession, asked him to immediately leave the house, but he allegedly continued to harass the family and stalk the woman.
Kumar allegedly followed the woman till her workplace on Wednesday before approaching her uncle and telling him about his plans to marry the woman.
When the complainant could take it no more, she secretly called the police control room number and asked the police to catch the accused red-handed while he followed her on Thursday.
