Metro submits report, lens on 3 men

PORN CLIP Police trying to identify suspects seen in the CCTV footage

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has submitted the internal probe report of the porn clip incident to the police, identifying three young men as suspects. The incident took place on April 9 at Rajiv Chowk Metro Station. The police is tracing the movement of these men by checking footage of the stations where they could have boarded the train.

The probe report has been submitted to the police, a Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) spokesperson said. The police is trying to identify the suspects seen in the CCTV footage which formed the basis of the investigation, the official said.

Another official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the police was scanning CCTV footage installed at the entrances of the Metro stations as well as those captured by the platform cameras to identify the suspects.

The pornographic video clip was played on one of the screens of a giant video wall, a grid of 12 LED screens, at Rajiv Chowk, a major interchange station, on April 9.

A video of the incident, recorded and shared by passengers who were present at the spot, had gone viral soon after, leaving the metro authorities embarrassed. A probe was launched on April 15.

A Delhi police official said, “We have received the footage from the DMRC and it is being examined. In the footage, some suspects are visible but the Metro authorities haven’t pinpointed any particular person. We will be speaking to them in detail and try to get more details”.

Rajiv Chowk Metro Station, located at Connaught Place in central Delhi, falls on the busy intersection of Blue Line and Yellow Line of the Metro network, and receives heavy footfall.
