At 2 am, one?Bengaluru woman?woke up to see her nightmare come to life. A man was allegedly trying to break into her apartment. He, for some reason, also threw condom packets inside the house through the window.?
In her complaint,?the Bengaluru woman lives alone in a locality which comes under Puttenahalli police station, mentioned that she was sleeping in her bedroom while she was woken up by the constant knocking on the main door of her apartment at night.?
The incident took place on January 30, the women said that she got immensely scared because of the constant knocking and ringing of the bell when she immediately dialed 100 in?the middle of the night.?
The man, meanwhile, opened the window which was next to the main door and switched the hall lights--the switches for which were also accessible to him--on and off continuously just to scare her more.?
She also said that the police did not arrive at the venue till 2.30 am and the man had fled by then. She spoke to the media and mentioned that the police checked the terrace and area near the building but the man escaped. The man could have hurt himself while climbing her building as there were blood-stains on the stairs and her windowpane.?
After that police left the venue and asked her to contact them if something happens again.?
After the long night, the woman got up in the morning to get ready for work when she found a packet of condoms near her fridge. She went to the police station to file an FIR but was shocked when the cops asked her not to mention the condoms in her complaint, adding casually that she should just throw the packet away.
¡°I told the sub-inspector of the police about the events that happened the previous night. But he refused to register an FIR, saying we can¡¯t because the guy is unknown,¡± the woman told media.??
Details of the CCTV footage that showed that the man had done the exact same thing on the first floor, also didn't make it to the complaint initially.
That said, the cops did acknowledge the fact that an unknown man had indeed banged on random doors and windows and filed a complaint eventually.
