NEW DELHI: Delhi Police has arrested a 21-year-old molester, known as 'Crazy Sumit', who would kiss young women on the streets and flee, and post videos of the 'prank' on social media.

Police said on Friday that the accused youth, identified as Sumit, is a final year BCA, student of WCTC college in Gurugram. His friend, Satyajeet Kadyan, 23, who helped him as a "camera man" to record the 'prank', has also been arrested.

Police arrested the two from Ashok Vihar Phase-3 area in Gurugram after raiding Sumit's house on Thursday late night, the officer said.

"We tracked Sumit and Kadyan after examining the CCTV footage of a restaurant where they were partying a couple of days ago in Gurugram. On the basis of their identities, we finally traced Sumit's address," a senior police officer said.

"On questioning, Sumit told interrogators that he and Kadyan played the 'prank' for gaining publicity, and also claimed that the two girls who he kissed in the 'prank' videos uploaded in social media are known to him, and are his friends," the police officer said.

"Sumit has denied molesting any women. He said he kissed the young women with their consent. We are investigating the case and are waiting for the victims to come forward to give statement against him," the officer said.

Some more people may be involved in the case, such as service providers, and they will be arrested soon, police said.
