Zomato has dismissed a delivery agent after a troubling incident involving a customer in Ahmedabad. On August 28, a woman shared her unsettling experience on social media, which has since gone viral. The woman, who chose to remain anonymous, reported that the delivery agent exposed himself to her when she went to collect her late-night order.

What Happened

The woman had ordered a coffee around midnight. When the delivery was delayed by 15 to 30 minutes, she received a call from the delivery agent at 12:48 am. Upon arriving to collect her order, she noticed the delivery person was unusually apologetic and kept mentioning an injury to his foot. Although she felt uneasy, she initially dismissed her concerns.
