Benagaluru: A woman who hired an auto in Bengaluru alleged that the auto driver filmed her surreptitiously by placing a mobile phone on the roof of the auto. The woman posted the matter on Facebook.

The incident took place in Bengaluru when the anonymous woman hailed an auto at Richmond Town on Sunday night. Meanwhile a mobile phone fell on her lap from the ceiling of the auto during the ride. Assuming that the driver has placed the device in the upholstery to film the passengers sitting in the back seat, the woman asked the driver to stop the vehicle and confronted him regarding the matter.

The driver, however, gave an evasive response saying he just fixed the mobile there for illumination purpose to give loose change to previous passenger.
