Hyderabad: A person old enough to be her grandfather becomes her tormentor, pestering her to go out with him. However, the sordid saga ended and the dirty old man was nabbed by the police and produced in court.

According to the Rachakonda Police Commissionerate‘s She Team, a 24-year-old MBA student went to the Kushaiguda Sai temple along with her grandfather on May 15. The old man suddenly took ill. Another old man offered help and dropped the young woman and her grandfather at their home. Before leaving, he took the woman’s mobile phone number on the pretext that he would like to know the health status of her grandfather.

The apparent “good samaritan” then called the woman and asked her to go out with him on a long drive. The surprised young woman politely declined his offer. As he started pestering her, she told him that she had to talk to her father before going out with him. He threatened her against telling her parents but insisted that she go out with him. She stopped responding to his phone calls and avoided him.

She then contacted the She Teams through their app and filed a complaint, giving details of the randy old man. Kushaiguda police were alerted immediately. They zeroed in on the old man and checked his call records. They identified him as 76-year-old Vinod Dewan, a resident of Lake View Residency in Sainikpuri, Secunderabad. They apprehended him and booked a petty case against him.

The relieved woman thanked the She Team through a message: “Thank You She Team; you helped me out of this problem. Your team did a great job. (From Deccan Herald)
