A person was beaten up and made to kneel down by some girls after he allegedly passed lewd comments at a female MBA student of Utkal University in Vani Vihar campus in Bhubaneshwar.
Last evening, when the girl was going from the bus stop to the ladies hostel in the university campus, Binod Kumar Sahoo, a private tutor, allegedly passed lewd comments against her, police said.
"I called up my friends who immediately arrived. Though Sahoo had left the place, we searched for him in the campus and he was spotted near VSS Nagar gate," the girl said.
They beat up Mr Sahoo with bamboo sticks and made him kneel down before handing him over to police, an officer said.
The accused was arrested today, police said.
