Despite the constant efforts from all the sides, women empowerment and safety concerns are still considered as the serious problems to be tackled. From the early morning when we go walking, to the late nights when we return from workplaces, there is no denial in encountering the barbarian behavior from few men.
And, when it comes to public places, the situation is much worse, traveling in public transportation is not easy, especially for women. You get perverts of all types and when you least expect them. It is surprising that no matter how much we advance, it will take us ages to make this world a safe place for women- especially with people like this. A female passenger was traveling in the Malaysian metro when she saw an old man trying to touch a fellow passenger sitting next to him. She recorded the video and shared it on the social media that immediately got viral.
The woman who recorded the whole scene was traveling back from work in the same metro. She conveyed that she had never witnessed any such incident prior to this. She said that when he noticed a couple was staring at him, he immediately got up from his seat and got off the train.
However, the whole recording is already shared on many social media platforms and have also been forwarded to the concerned authorities. Shockingly, many people are blaming the girl for dressing 'indecently'. One of the readers said that the man was not trying to touch the girl but he was pulling his kurta and because the girl was sitting so close to him, he was feeling uncomfortable.
Whatever his intentions are, anything that is done involving getting physical with other person demands consent, which he didn't try to ask for. And, it is quite heartbreaking to see a man of that age behaving in such a monstrous way with the young woman.
