The DU student in her complaint to Vasant Vihar police shared the entire sequence of events that unfolded in the moving bus, when the incident took place on February 7.
"I was reading a book when the person sitting next to me started masturbating. He even tried to touch my waist a number of times," the victim said in her complaint.
Expressing her ordeal, the girl also revealed how the people in the bus turned mute spectators and ignored when she approached them for help.
