Naked Man Boards Women’s Compartment on Mumbai Train, Escorted Off by Staff

Mumbai, 18th December 2024: Passengers in the women’s compartment of a Mumbai suburban train were left startled when a naked man boarded and had to be escorted off by railway staff.

The incident occurred Monday afternoon at Ghatkopar station when the man entered the Kalyan-bound AC local train. Despite the women passengers’ alarm, the man refused to leave the train.

Some passengers shouted at him to disembark, while others tapped on the windows to alert station authorities.

Eventually, the ticket collector intervened, removing the man from the compartment and handing him over to the Government Railway Police.
