In a shocking incident in Latur city’s Renapur Naka area, a lady traffic constable was seen abusing and physically assaulting three young women who were caught riding triple-seat on a two-wheeler. The incident was captured on video by a bystander and has since gone viral on social media.
According to eyewitnesses, the female constable noticed the three girls riding at high speed and chased them for a short distance before stopping them. The situation escalated when the constable, visibly angry, began scolding the girls using abusive and foul language. The video shows the constable shouting at the girls and threatening to beat them with her shoe.
Despite the girls repeatedly apologizing and requesting forgiveness, the constable continued to verbally abuse them in public. “The three of you were driving, the two in the back were sitting crooked. Did you get a license to drive a race car? Call your father immediately,” she is heard saying in the video.
The girls’ violation of traffic rules—riding triple-seat—is being condemned. However, the behavior of the police officer has also drawn sharp criticism from the public. Many on social media are questioning whether such public shaming and abuse were justified.
The video has sparked debate about both the irresponsibility of riders and the conduct of law enforcement. Authorities are yet to issue an official statement regarding the incident.
