The complainant posted her ordeal on social media in which she alleged that how she and her friends were harassed and obscene gestures were passed at them. She also alleged that no one was ready to offer help.

Invading space

“Two men sat behind our table and one of them rested his arm on my chair. I moved my chair as his arm was very close to her head. At doing this the other man sitting with him pushed my chair very aggressively, to which I went flying ahead [sic],” complainant wrote in her social media post.
