A policeman, who allegedly tried to misbehave with a young woman when she was boarding a bus here, has been arrested.
Police said the accused C P Suresh, attached to the Alappuzha CB-CID, was arrested last night at the Vytilla Mobility Hub.
The woman, in her twenties, who was trying to board the bus to Kayamkulam last night after work, raised an alarm when the accused, in an inebriated state and not in his uniform, tried to misbehave with her, police said.
When she slapped him, she was pulled down and hit by Suresh, police said.
A crowd gathered and beat him and handed him over to police.
The woman is working as an engineer in a company here and is the daughter of a Retired Superintendent of Police of Alappuzha.
A day earlier, a migrant worker was arrested when he tried to misbehave with a woman passenger in a bus in the city.
