Tyagi, who accused director Subhash Kapoor of molestation, herself has a murky story to hide
It has emerged that journalist-turned-actress Geetika Tyagi, who is currently in the centre of a controversy involving her molestation allegations against filmmaker Subhash Kapoor, was fired by a news channel in 2004. It seems that Geetika stole news-anchor-turned-AAP-party leader Shazia Ilmi's ATM card and withdrew money using the same.
A source close to Ilmi says, `She (Ilmi) used to anchor the 7 pm news segment and Geetika would host the 10 pm slot. They shared a makeup room and often Shazia would leave her bag inside the make-up room, not realising that Geetika would fish out her ATM card from the bag and withdraw money from the bank. Obviously, Ilmi was alarmed that her card was being misused; she even filed a complaint with the management."

The source adds that when questioned, Geetika denied the accusations only to own up at a later stage. `She was shown CCTV footage that caught her in the act and immediately after, she was asked to resign from the organisation,` says the source. Ilmi, who is currently in London, confirmed the story. `Yes, the incident you mentioned is true,` she said. Geetika, however, didn't respond to either email or SMSes.
