Police have registered a case of sexual harassment and criminal intimidation against two unidentified individuals after the wife of an IPS officer filed a complaint alleging that her children were harassed during a recent IPL match at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.

The clash took place between the families where the IPS officer's family accused the other party of intimidation, sexual harassment and outraging modesty. The I-T commissioner's family denied the allegations, a TOI report said.

"But what's more shocking is it all took place in the complimentary hospitality box even as several senior government officials watched without intervening," a senior cop said.

The report added that the incident occurred when the IPS officer's daughter, who was at the venue with his brother, stepped out of the seating area briefly to go to the restroom.

"The daughter stepped away to use the washroom, leaving her purse on the seat to indicate it was occupied. That is when a man came and occupied her seat. When the woman's brother asked the man to vacate the seat, explaining that his sister was about to return, the man refused, leading to a heated argument. The situation escalated when the woman rejoined her brother, while the man was soon accompanied by his wife—an income tax official—and their son. The verbal confrontation quickly intensified, with both parties allegedly hurling abuses at each other. At one point, tensions nearly spiraled out of control as the man was seen arguing aggressively in close proximity to the IPS officer라이브 바카라 daughter, a police official said in the report.

Following the altercation, the siblings contacted their parents, who were at home at the time. En route to the stadium, the IPS officer reportedly sought assistance from his senior colleagues but received no response. Subsequently, his wife approached the Cubbon Park police station and filed a complaint.

In her complaint, she accused the man of making "unwelcome physical contact" and "intruding on her daughter라이브 바카라 privacy with the intention to offend her." She also stated they had visual evidence of the incident, recorded on a mobile phone by the man라이브 바카라 son. The complaint further noted that no police personnel were present in the Diamond Box section when the incident took place.
