Pennsylvania, July 26: An Indian Forest Service officer has been arrested in the US for allegedly assaulting a hotel employee sexually.
Surender Mahapatra was arrested in Pennsylvania yesterday. He was part of a batch of 34 officers who had gone to the US for a training workshop at Syracuse University in New York.
Mr Mahapatra has denied the charges against him. While he has been arrested, others accompanying him have left for Washington DC to continue with the rest of their training program. The tour coordinator has however stayed behind.
