[QUOTE="avi, post: 2005470, member: 38834"] In just three months, the number of pickpockets held in the Delhi Metro has exceeded that of six months of 2013, and 94% of them were female. The CISF says that's because of increased security, but if you're a woman, hold on to your handbag tightly. If you're a woman and a frequent commuter on the Metro, chances are, you always prefer the pink compartment. However, while it reduces the likelihood of you being groped or leched at, you're probably trading that safety for an increased chance of you losing your money or belongings. Recent figures by the CISF (The Central Industrial Security Force, which is responsible for the security of the Delhi Metro) say that in just three months (January to March), 126 pickpockets were held, of which 118 were women. Ergo, more women are nicking pockets on the metro than men, and they're mostly targeting women. In 2013, the CISF caught 193 pickpockets in six months, and 91% (175) of them were female. In 2014, in three months (January to March), 126 pickpockets have been held, of which 94% (118) were female.
