Cops Thrash Woman For 'Dating' Muslim Man; Assault Caught On Camera
Home > India newsIn a shocking case of bigotry, the Uttar Pradesh police were caught on camera abusing and thrashing a girl for allegedly being involved in a relationship with a Muslim boy. The police rescued the boy and girl, who were being harassed by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) over allegations of 'love jihad'. A video of a policewoman hitting the girl inside a police van has gone viral.
The cops took it upon themselves to teach the girl and lesson for dating someone outside of her religion. They even went on to use derogatory language for having an affair with a Muslim man. “Are you not ashamed of dating a Muslim boy despite being a Hindu?” one of the cops, sitting in the front of the car, asked the girl. The same cop also shot a video of the incident.
