A 28-year-old civil engineer was arrested on Saturday for allegedly flashing his genitals at a woman in a metro train earlier this week, police said.
The accused has been identified as Abhilash Kumar, a resident of sector 22, Gurgaon. He is a native of Karnal, works at a private company in Gurgaon and is unmarried, they said.
As FIR was earlier filed in the case in which a woman had alleged that she was harassed in a metro train by a man's "obscene behaviour", DMRC authorities said on Saturday.
The woman had narrated the alleged incident on Twitter late Wednesday night, saying that a man had flashed his genitals at her in a coach when she was travelling on the Yellow Line.
Taking to twitter, DMRC said, "Suspect in the Sultanpur case has been traced by the DMRC Security Cell & AFC. He was tracked using the phone number used for an online payment for his card. DMRP has taken him into custody. The case could be solved because of the prompt assistance & action by the Police."
