Kundapur, Apr 23, 2014 : According to reliable reports,  Udupi district police  opened a rowdy-sheet against a scuba diving instructor, who has been charged with the molestation of a 23-year-old Bengaluru-based software engineer near Shiroor Beach, Byndoor on January 26.  The district administration also cancelled the licence of the firm Dreamz Scuba Diving, which was operating at  Shiroor.


Scuba diving instructor a rowdy sheeterKavya Raman had come along with friends for  diving at Dreamz Scuba Diving. Instructor Dhirendra Rawat (46) is reported to have molested her underwater.  Later  Kavya and her friends confronted the instructor and he was unable to give a satisfactory response. They lodged a complaint at the Byndoor Police Station and a case was registered under Section 354 (assault or criminal force to woman with intent to outrage her modesty). Rawat was arrested and produced before the court in Kundapur.

The lady  narrated her ordeal to the media through ‘Youth Ki Awaaz’. She had to suffer molestation for about 40 minutes under water.  She stated  she had information that this was the second such report against this instructor  in the last one-and-a-half month.
