"As I, along with one of my friends, was walking down the road, two youths surfaced all of a sudden and started molesting us," one of the harassed ladies said.

"As we screamed a police van, which was passing by, came to our rescue and arrested both the culprits," she said.

Police said the two were rounded up and taken to the nearby police station.

Three separate cases of molestation of women were reported in the city during the past fortnight.
