A 24-year-old lawyer chased a molester, a medical student, at Dadar station, jumped into the general compartment he had got into and refused to let go of him till she had handed him to the cops at Andheri. Sadly, according to her, not a single commuter came forward to help, and worse, even the cops were reluctant to file an FIR, warning her about legal hurdles she would face.

The accused has been identified as Javed Jan Shaha, 32, resident of Prabhadevi. According to the police, he is a medical student at a reputable Navi Mumbai college. The woman told mid-day, "Around 11pm on Saturday, while I was walking towards the first class ladies compartment of a train on platform number 3 at Dadar station, suddenly someone put his hand between my legs from behind. I immediately punched him with my elbow and turned around to see, but he was running off. I grabbed hold of his collar, but he managed to get into a Borivli fast that was about to leave.
