In a shocking incident near Kalyan Nagar in Bengaluru, a man was brutally attacked with an iron rod in broad daylight. The disturbing incident came to light after an Instagram user @_cavalier_fantome shared the horrific video of the incident, showing an unidentified assailant assaulting the victim with the iron rod before walking away from the scene.
The video, recorded on a dashboard camera of the Instagram user's car, captured the assailant's violent act while the traffic passed by. What's concerning is the lack of intervention from bystanders as the attacker continuously assaulted the victim. Only after the attacker departed did a few passersby step in to aid the victim.
The user posted the video and wrote, "Today, during my drive near Kalyan Nagar, Bangalore, I witnessed a horrifying incident that shook me to the core. On the main road, I saw a person being viciously attacked with a steel rod, while the assailant walked away without a care in the world. This is just a glimpse of the violence that seems to be becoming all too common in our city.I’m deeply concerned about the safety of our community. Is Bangalore still a safe place to call home? It’s heartbreaking to witness such brutality on a daily basis.I urge the authorities of the Karnataka government to take immediate action and ensure that justice is served for the victim. We cannot allow such acts of violence to go unpunished.Please share this post and help spread the word. Together, we can make our city safer for everyone."
