Mumbai: The CSMT railway police have booked three passengers, including a woman, for allegedly assaulting and molesting a 38-year-old ticket checker (TC). The trio – Tai Pagare, 33, Tanveer Rangreda, 40 and Ravi Bansod, 35 – had come from Ahmednagar to Mumbai for work.
According to the police, the TC asked them to show tickets after they alighted at CSMT from the Pragati Express on Friday 11am. It was subsequently found that all of them were travelling on a long-distance train on local train tickets. Consequently, the TC asked them to pay fines, but the trio started an argument and allegedly pushed her in a fit of rage.
