Two Delhi University law students were arrested on Friday for allegedly stalking and harassing two women in Mukherjee Nagar on Wednesday night. Police identified the accused as Abhimanyu and Abhinav, while a third student, Naman, remains absconding. The incident occurred around 9:30 pm near Hakikat Park. According to the complaint, the women were walking when a white SUV approached and the occupants made lewd comments. One youth allegedly said, "Red suits you." When the women objected, the accused became aggressive and began abusing them. The SUV followed the women and stopped near Old Gupta Colony, where the occupants allegedly tried to push the women inside. The women recorded the vehicle, after which the SUV left. Police traced the SUV to a parking area in Bhalswa Dairy. The vehicle had at least 18 pending challans totalling Rs 33,000, mostly for speeding and tinted glass. The arrested duo were produced in court on Saturday and sent to 14-day judicial custody. A judicial test identification parade will be held.
