Police in Bengaluru arrest a woman who first shared alleged footage of abuse at a daycare on the Capgemini campus, according to multiple reports. Investigators say they have “enough evidence” against the whistleblower and that she is accused for violating rules by circulating “sensitive” videos. NDTV reports police question the woman and take action after saying the videos were leaked. Police also describe her as an “equal party” to the crime, a position echoed by the Times of India, which says procedures were not followed after the incidents came to light.
The reports also say the police probe widens after earlier arrests in connection with the case. NDTV states that police had arrested two people linked to the incident before the whistleblower’s arrest, and that the investigation continues into alleged wrongdoing by caregivers. Times of India adds that investigators find indications that at least one alleged incident may have been stage-managed by caregivers. Family members raise concerns about the arrest, while police maintain that evidence supports including the whistleblower as an accused party.
