Heated confrontation in public
The situation escalated quickly as the accused woman denied any wrongdoing and resisted the man’s hold. A brief struggle followed, with another bystander stepping in to help restrain her while calls were made for someone to alert the police.
Despite the intervention, the woman eventually managed to free herself and walked away from the scene, continuing to argue as the crowd gradually dispersed.
Around Jama Masjid, such “fast & furious” moments aren’t new A few years ago, I witnessed a similar purse-snatching live! Moral of the story: enjoy the crowd, but keep your bag closer than your best friend.
