The entire episode was recorded on camera and later shared on social media, where it quickly went viral.

Visibly angered, the constable is seen reacting aggressively. He shouts at the woman, grabs her, and allegedly strikes her across the face multiple times with an open hand. Other police personnel and bystanders can be seen nearby, some attempting to intervene or separate the two, but the officer continues to behave aggressively.

The woman is reported to have suffered minor injuries during the incident.
