To ensure women's safety in Gurgaon, Haryana Police arrested 46 people during a drive, police said today.
"Romeo-free" campaign was last night carried out at Mehrauli-Gurgaon (MG) road in Gurgaon, where thousands of people throng specially on weekends, a police spokesperson said.
"Mostly the miscreants were found stalking, passing lewd comments and teasing women visitors, after the pubs closed at 1 am, and were detained by the police teams," said ACP Dharna Yadav.
"The accused were booked under sections 107 and 151 of CrPC Act and arrested in sector 29 and DLF phase -II. They were later given bail at police station level after a warning," he added.
If they indulge in such cases again in next six months, they would be booked under cognisable offence of IPC, he said.
