"We arrested the person yesterday for molesting the Irish tourist in the A/C paid waiting room at Bangalore Railway Station. He has been sent to judicial custody," Railways Superintendent of Police S N Siddaramappa said.
The man, hailing from Davanagere and a frequent traveller to the city, molested the 33-year old woman, who was down with dysentery and dehydration as she reached the station at 6 am yesterday, under the pretext of helping her.
He has been booked under IPC section 354 (A) - sexual harassment, Siddaramappa said.
