A woman took to Twitter on Wednesday night to describe the ordeal she faced on a Metro Train in India's capital city. She alleged that a man flashed her in the metro while she was on her way home.
In a series of tweets, she shared a picture of a man wearing a grey jacket with a backpack and alleged that he had flashed her.
She wrote: “This man (right, grey jacket+backpack) flashed his penis at me inside Delhi Metro around 6PM while I was returning from work today. Feel shaken, numb & angry. Didn't even remember I had taken this pic till I spoke to a friend hours later.”

(3/6)I can recall the numbness and dread I felt all over my body when I saw it and looked away. He was carrying that bag infront of his penis to hide it from the front. He stayed at that position for maybe a minute while my eyes were glued to the floor...

The woman said that she wished she had been b enoughrave to handle the situation much more quickly.
“Contacted my friend later & she encouraged me to report it. Regret that I wasn't able to call him out there & then. Wish I could have gotten over the sickening, numbing feeling sooner, & taken action quicker. Sad that my 1st tweet is about a sexual harassment experience.”
