Sex workers in Bengaluru Allegedly beaten up and assaulted by police
Zomato has been making the headlines since last week and the case has seen several twists and turns. It all started with a Bengaluru-based model-turned-make-up artist Hitesha Chandrani accusing a Zomato delivery executive of punching her over a dispute with the bill of the order. Now, the same customer has an FIR in her name in Bengaluru s Electronic City Police Station.
According to ANI report, an FIR was filed against Chandranee under Section 355 (assault), 504 (insult) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of IPC on Zomato delivery executive Kamaraj s complaint. The FIR was not lodged by Zomato, which had agreed to fight the legal battle on Kamaraj s behalf and cover all expenses. Rather it was filed by a Kannada organisation that has come forward to help the delivery boy.

The Bengaluru Police on Wednesday arrested a Zomato delivery executive after a model-turned-makeup artiste posted a video clip on social media platforms alleging an assault on her.
According to the Electronic City police, the arrested person has been identified as Kamaraj, who works with the online food delivery platform.
Kamaraj was arrested shortly after Hitesha Chandranee took to Twitter and Instagram to air her woes, tagging the city police, which asked her to provide the area details to assist the police.
Acknowledging her complaint, Zomato s official Twitter handle mentioned that a local representative will be in touch with her shortly and provide all possible help in the police investigation.
