In a post on X (formerly Twitter), user Ankur Bagchi (@JustAnkurBagchi) narrated the incident that took place on Wednesday. He revealed that his friend not only experienced inappropriate touching by the Rapido auto driver but also was forcibly thrown out from the moving vehicle when she resisted. He accused the company of enabling sexual predators and urged others not to use the aggregator service. Rapido enables sexual predators.

"Rapido enables sexual predators. Do not use Rapido. One of my friends got sexually assaulted last night by a @rapidobikeapp auto driver. She was touched inappropriately and when she pushed back, she was thrown out of a moving auto," Mr Bagchi wrote on Thursday.
The X user further disclosed that initially, despite his friend filing a complaint with Rapido, the company merely apologised without providing any details about the auto-rickshaw driver. "We're working on sorting this out, but in the meantime she needs medical care," Mr Bagchi wrote, adding, "Be safe. Tell your female friends and family not to use Rapido".
