New Delhi, Jan 19 (IANS) An employee of a spa was arrested for allegedly molesting an NRI woman, police said Thursday.

“The incident was reported in south Delhi’s five star hotel in Vasant Vihar areas Jan 13,” a police officer said.

“The accused Sanjay, a salon employee in the hotel, was arrested Tuesday on her complaint and a case was slapped against him,” Chhaya Sharma, Deputy Commissioner of Police, told IANS.

“The victim alleged that the hotel authorities were not sensitive to her complaint and refused to approach police following which she herself decided to lodge a complaint,” said the officer.

The victim had checked into the hotel along with her parents on Jan 12.

“The next day, she claimed, she along with her mother went to a spa and while going for a head massage, she was taken to a separate room although there were five other available chairs in the room where her mother was.

“The victim claimed she was having a terrible headache and was exhausted and the therapist apparently pressed certain nerves so that would go to sleep,” said the officer.

“When she woke up, she alleged, she found the salon employee molesting her and she immediately reported the matter to the lobby manager. She alleged that they did not see any action taken by the hotel management instead they passed the blame on to Spa, saying it was an outsourced division,” the officer added.
