New Delhi, March 19, 2023 (PPI-OT): A man openly beat up a woman and forcefully made her sit in a car on the road in the Indian capital city New Delhi. A video of a shocking incident has surfaced on social media where a man was seen beating a woman in the middle of the road and forcefully making her sit in a car in New Delhi. Another man was seen on the other side of the car who also sat in the same car. The disturbing part is that the woman was manhandled in the busy traffic ridden road yet no one came forward to help the victim woman.
The incident happened on Saturday night near the Mangolpuri flyover. However, the identity of the man and the victim woman has not been identified yet. The car and driver have been traced. The investigation is underway to gather more information about the driver and the incident, the Delhi police official claimed.
Hours after the video went viral, the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) chairperson Swati Maliwal took to Twitter to share the video of the incident and ensured strict action. She tweeted, “Taking cognizance of this viral video of a woman being forced into a vehicle and beaten up, I am issuing a notice to the Delhi Police. The commission will ensure strict action against these people”.
Notably, crimes against women are on the rise in the Indian capital as earlier this month a 28-year-old woman lost her life after being set on fire by her live-in partner following a dispute over drugs in northwest Delhi’s Aman Vihar. Since the beginning of 2023, Delhi has been witnessing back-to-back spine chilling murders in which women have been the victims.
