A case was registered against the accused Sukhraj Singh with Moga police yesterday.
According to the complaint lodged by the victim, the driver took his vehicle to a secluded area yesterday after dropping the school kids to their residences and allegedly molested her inside the van.
When the victim raised an alarm, the accused dragged her out of the car. The driver managed to escape when some passerby came to the woman's rescue after hearing her cry for help, according to the complaint.
No arrest has been made in the case yet, police said, adding investigation is underway in this connection.
The incident came close on the heels of a teenage girl, who was killed after being molested and thrown off a moving bus in Moga recently.
