Man flashes at Gurugram woman in broad daylight, influencer shares chilling video: 'Felt disgusted and unsafe'
Soni Singh, a model and content creator, said she was returning from Jaipur when she was allegedly approached and harassed by a man. She documented the incident on her phone and later posted about it on social media after she claimed her calls to emergency helplines went unanswered.
According to her post, the man began circling her while she was waiting for her ride and made her feel extremely uncomfortable. 'He kept staring at me, and I noticed his behaviour was deliberate. I felt disgusted and unsafe,' she said in a video posted on Instagram.
Unable to reach her initial cab driver, Ms Singh booked another ride and returned home safely. She later shared photos of the man and recounted her experience online. She also criticised the lack of immediate police response, stating that even the women's helpline did not offer assistance at the time.
'It was shocking to feel so helpless in the middle of the day. Why are women still unsafe in public? There needs to be stricter action,' she wrote.
Two days after her post gained traction on social media, Gurugram Police responded and confirmed that a First Information Report (FIR) had been filed. Police spokesperson Sandeep said that CCTV footage from the area is being reviewed, and efforts are underway to identify and locate the accused.
Ms Singh also raised concerns about the safety protocols of ride-hailing services, claiming the driver of her original booking was unresponsive, leaving her feeling more vulnerable.
Ms Singh has nearly 40,000 followers on Instagram. Her public account of the incident has reignited conversations around women's safety in urban spaces and the role of quick response mechanisms.

Woman's body parts found stuffed in multiple plastic bags on roadside in Karnataka's Tumakuru
The severed head and dismembered remains of a woman have been discovered in several plastic bags dumped along a roadside in Tumakuru district, Karnataka. Authorities said the bags containing the woman's body parts were first spotted in Kolala village, Koratagere, by passers-by on Thursday, August 7. (HT_PRINT file) According to news agency PTI, the bags containing the woman's body parts were first spotted in Kolala village, Koratagere, by passers-by on Thursday, August 7. Initially, seven plastic covers were found, but when cops carried out an extensive search of the site the next day, they discovered seven additional bags holding more body parts, including the head. The same day, Tumakuru superintendent of police Ashok KV, deployed special teams to comb Kolala village and neighbouring areas where the remains had been found. An investigating officer has reportedly said that cops have zeroed in on the woman's identity with help from the severed head, but are yet to confirm it. Police suspect the killers probably used a car to move the remains before discarding them in the bags. They believe the bags could be spread along the route between Chimpuganhalli and Venkatapura villages. 'The woman was more likely murdered elsewhere,' the officer added. Search efforts for additional body parts were hampered on Saturday due to heavy rainfall in the region. 30-year-old woman murdered in Vijayapura In a separate case that took place in June, a 30-year-old woman working in a government department was killed in broad daylight near Tippu Sultan Circle in Indira Nagar, Vijayapura district, over a personal dispute connected to an 'immoral relationship'. The victim, identified as Renuka Sayabanna Kannolli, was attacked while riding her scooter. News agency ANI quoted police as saying that the accused, Sanju Banasode, stopped her and launched a violent assault, causing severe injuries. Renuka was taken to the district hospital for emergency care but succumbed to her injuries shortly afterwards. Police teams reached the location soon after the crime and began their investigation. The matter is currently being handled by Indi City Police Station. In another incident from the same month, a shocking case emerged in Udupi district, where a 27-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her husband following a quarrel over her watching Instagram reels, The Hindu reported. The killing took place on the night of June 19 under the jurisdiction of the Shankaranarayana police and has once again drawn attention to the dark side of digital addiction and domestic disputes.
