A strange event took place in Kanpur’s Chakeri area on Friday morning when a young man became trapped inside a locked box at his girlfriend’s house for 45 minutes and the situation became popular on social media. Police reported that the woman had invited her boyfriend to her house at 11:30 AM because her family members were out for work and she wanted to meet him in a secret location. The situation turned into a state of emergency when her aunt entered the house without warning and she heard strange sounds coming from within. The woman used a large box to imprison her boyfriend because she wanted to avoid detection by her aunt and she opened the door to her aunt while lying that no one else was inside her home.
