Jodhpur/Mumbai  Feb 23 (IBNS) :  In two shocking incidents,  a UK national was allegedly molested by two bike-borne men in Rajasthan's Jodhpur, while a middle-aged man allegedly forcibly kissed a young woman in a suburban railway station in Mumbai, media reports said.

Both incidents took place on Thursday.

In Jodhpur, the incident took place when the woman, a UK national on a visit to India,  walking back to her hotel and two men on a motorcycle suddenly grabbed her.

She lodged a complaint with police who are trying to track down the culprits with the help of CCTV footage.

In another incident, the  Navi Mumbai Railway Protection Force  arrested a 43-year-old man for allegedly forcibly kissing a woman  at the city's suburban Turbhe railway station.

The act, captured on a closed circuit television (CCTV) camera, shows the accused, identified as Naresh K Joshi, walk up to the unsuspecting woman and allegedly force himself on her.

The woman in her 20s, pushed  Joshi away, and he casually strolled off leaving her shocked.

Earlier last month, during the Republic Day weekend a similar incident was reported from Goa where a woman had alleged that she was molested by a bike rider at Morjim.
