Former DCW chief Mamata Sharma on Tuesday lashed out at the Delhi Police for acting inefficiently in the Tilak Nagar eve teasing case and said that this would boost the morale of the goons.

"This is very unfortunate that the accused got the bail in the police station itself after the girl herself went to the police station to report the case," said Sharma.

"From this case, the goons will get confidence that nothing will happen to them if they tease the girls in the national capital," she added.

She further criticized both the Centre and Delhi Government for not fulfilling their promise on women security.

The Delhi Police had yesterday said that they have filed the case in the Tilak Nagar eve teasing incident on the basis of the victim's statement.

"We go by evidence on record. We have recorded the statement of the girl and on that basis we have filed the case against the accused," Delhi Police Commissioner B.S. Bassi said.
