“I co-owned a women’s salon with Mohsin, and a dispute arose on the 25th due to a loss of around Rs. 5000. I scolded a girl over this, which angered Mohsin. I questioned his close relationship with her, which triggered his violent reaction. As I was about to call the police (‘100’ emergency number), he forcefully took my phone, and since it had low battery, it switched off. I managed to escape to the road. Mohsin later apologized, and I forgave him, so I didn’t initially report the incident to the police. However, after the video went viral, the police became aware of the situation. I received numerous calls today. Although I wasn’t initially willing to file an FIR, everyone advised me that what happened to me today should not happen to anyone else in the future. I received support from many, despite being from the North East. Both the police and the media have stood by me, and I appreciate their support. I feel better now and thank everyone for their assistance,” stated the victim.
