An Uber autorickshaw driver passed lewd comments at a 45-year-old woman passenger he ferried home on Monday afternoon.
He later stopped the vehicle and touched her inappropriately. The incident happened in Vijaya Bank Layout in Bilekahalli.
The homemaker went to the BBMP office and booked an auto on the Uber app to get back home. As she boarded the vehicle at 2 pm, the driver, later identified by the police as Darshan M P, harassed the woman.
The shocked woman got out of the auto and raised an alarm, but the vehicle sped away before she could get help. The woman filed separate complaints with the aggregator and Mico Layout police, who filed an FIR against Darshan, charging him for outraging the woman's modesty.
