New Delhi: A female tourist from the Netherlands, identified as Andy Avocado, reported being harassed by a co-passenger during her journey on a Delhi-Agra train. She alleged that the man repeatedly clicked pictures of her without her consent, causing her discomfort.
Instead of alerting authorities or fellow passengers, Andy chose to address the situation by recording the incident and filming the man’s behaviour. Sharing the video online, she described the man’s actions as “annoying and rude” and sarcastically referred to him as a “d*ckhead.”
In the video, she remarked, "If you have someone like this next to you, just do the same. Put the camera to his face." Despite the ordeal, she emphasised her love for India, stating, "This experience is not going to stop me from exploring this beautiful country."
The video gained widespread attention on social media, with many users condemning the man's actions and expressing solidarity with Andy. Some suggested she report such incidents to railway authorities in the future, while others praised her calm handling of the situation.

Kolkata (PTI): Seven people were arrested from the Parnashree area in the southern part of the city for allegedly running a fake call centre, a police officer said on Saturday.
Acting on a tip-off, police raided a house on Netaji Subhas Road on Friday night and found the fake call centre operating from the ground floor, he said.
Preliminary investigation revealed that the accused had set up a bogus company using forged documents and posed as employees of an antivirus firm to call citizens in the US, the officer said.
"The callers would gain the trust of victims and then use remote access to take control of their phones or other digital devices. The accused allegedly siphoned off large sums of money, running into millions of dollars, from victims' accounts," he said.
Five laptops, two WiFi routers, six mobile phones and four headsets were seized from the accused, he said, adding that the seven are being questioned to ascertain the full extent of the racket and to identify others involved.
