A staffer of the Pakistan High Commission was taken to a police station here for reportedly touching a woman inappropriately, police said Monday. The woman and the staffer were brought to Sarojini Nagar police station on Sunday, they said.

According to the woman, the man touched her inappropriately in the market, a claim rejected by the staffer. The man said his hand merely brushed past the woman due to heavy crowd in the market, police said.
