A MAN who indecently touched a woman’s thigh on a subway train in Shanghai was kicked out of the Party and sacked from his job at a local travel agency yesterday.

The 38-year-old was also put under administrative detention, a punishment for violations not serious enough for criminal charges.

Police said Wang Qikang had been drinking when he twice deliberately touched a woman’s thigh on a Metro Line 9 train on June 29. Police did not say how long he was detained for the indecent assault.
