Tonight I was returning after watching a movie with my friend. Then 10 men sitting in two cars tried to block our way on Mukhani Road near Sacred Heart School in Haldwani. A black Scorpio car with temporary number plate was going ahead of us. Then a white Nios i20 blocked their way from behind. To prevent us from taking our car out from the side, the boys sitting in the Nios i20 drove the car from beside us. They had kept both the doors of their car open. When this happened for the first time, we somehow managed to escape. However, the boys followed us and blocked our way again. At this time a person riding a scooter came out from there, he stopped the boys, so that we could run away once again. But those boys came after us again. In this post, Prachi Joshi also tagged the Uttarakhand Police. She criticized the police for not being able to ensure the safety of women. She questioned the increasing hooliganism in Haldwani and appealed to the police to take action against these boys. Police arrested all the boys
Uttarakhand Police informed on social media at 8:15 pm on Wednesday that they have taken both the cars into custody and arrested all the boys.
