Observing that crimes against women in public spaces cause both physical and psychological harm, a city court has upheld the conviction of a man for sexually harassing a woman commuter on the Delhi Metro.

The case pertains to an FIR lodged against Mohd. Tahir after the complainant accused him of standing next to her and masturbating while travelling in a crowded metro train between Saket and Hauz Khas stations on March 27, 2021.
