After a video of her hitting and abusing three girls for riding triple seat went viral, the Latur police constable apologised, saying she acted out of concern as a mother, not in official capacity. “I did it as a mother; I was not even on duty, but I did it because I have two daughters,” she said, defending her emotional reaction in a media interview.
She also informed that till now no action was taken by Latur Police.
Here's what happened
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.
