She said she gave him a bottle and even asked him to keep it. According to the woman, the delivery executive later returned after finishing the water and asked for another bottle.

The delivery executive again continued insisting that she allow him inside, the woman claimed, alleging that when she attempted to close the gate, the delivery executive repeatedly rang the doorbell and again requested entry into the house. Feeling increasingly uncomfortable, she said she locked the door and stayed indoors. She also claimed the man continued knocking and banging on the gate, heightening her fear.
The woman said she did not file a police complaint because she did not have the delivery executive’s personal details at the time of the incident. During the earlier incident around four weeks ago, a delivery executive was arrested following allegations that he entered a woman’s apartment without permission and sexually harassed her after asking to use the washroom.
