New Delhi:Two men were arrested for allegedly stalking and molesting a woman in Delhi's RK Puram area, police said Monday.

The accused have been identified as Aftab Khan, a resident of Shaheen Bagh, and Soneneder, a resident of Uttar Pradesh, they said.

On Saturday, the woman approached police and filed a complaint where she alleged that Khan had sent her friend request on Facebook and they became friends, a senior police officer said.

Later, they got into a relationship.

She claimed that Khan, along with Soneneder, started pressuring her to marry him, police said.

She also claimed that they molested her and threatened her of dire consequences if she would not marry Khan, the officer said.
