Twelve years after a female professor of a city-based college filed a molestation complaint against the principal, who is now the head of Mithibai College, the Tilak Nagar police arrested him on January 17. According to the police, the accused had moved the court for anticipatory bail but the court asked him to surrender before the police and instructed the cops to arrest him and then release him on a personal bail bond of Rs 15,000.

According to the complainant, the police took 11 years to file an FIR as she had first filed a complaint in the matter in 2007. After she wrote a letter to the prime minister, the cops registered an FIR in 2018.
