This paper’s front-page report yesterday showed that while perverts have remained the same through the ages, those at the receiving end do not take things lying down any more, especially with technology acting as a great empowering tool.

When a 35-year-old man stopped his motorcycle next to an auto rickshaw carrying two teenaged girls at a traffic signal in Khar and started masturbating at them, the quick-thinking teens snapped a picture of the jerk and circulated it among their friends. When told they should contact the police, one of the girls tweeted the picture and tagged Mumbai Police.
