Attackers Question Victim About Remarks on Female Students
The viral video clearly shows the female student asking, “Kya bola tha character?” which translates to “What did you say about character?” The victim is heard apologising repeatedly.
The male attacker can be heard saying, “Janvi ke baare mein bolega? Somiya ke baare mein bolega?” meaning “You will speak about Janvi? You will speak about Somiya?” The relentless assault continued despite the victim’s plea to stop. The video also shows the student shielding his face with his hands to avoid the continuous blows.
The incident reportedly ended when two other boys, who were sitting inside the car during the attack, intervened and asked the attackers to let the victim go. By that point, the victim had already endured 26 slaps and repeated humiliation.
While the video spread rapidly across social media platforms, the exact reason behind the assault remains unclear. The clip has triggered wide outrage, with many demanding strong action against the accused students involved in the violent act.
