In Uttar Pradesh's capital, Lucknow, a brother-sister duo publicly assaulted a woman selling vegetables. Present police officers tried to intervene, yet the assault persisted unabated. A female constable who tried to mediate also faced the assaulters' wrath. Police eventually arrested the duo involved.

The incident unfolded in the Gudamba police station area on Kursi Road. As the video circulated, Police Commissioner D.K. Thakur took immediate action, detaining the alleged assailants behind bars. The perpetrators have been identified as Ashish and Vivek, with a case registered against them.

The vegetable vendor, Ram Dulari, got involved in a heated dispute with residents Ashish and his sister Aanchal over price negotiation. The argument escalated into a physical altercation between Ram Dulari and Aanchal. Ashish, alongside his father Barati Lal, also joined in the assault. When the police patrol vehicle PRV 0522 and a female constable arrived, they attempted to control the situation, but the assailants even confronted the law enforcement team. Order was restored when police took stringent action.

Notably, in light of rising instances of harassment and such events, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had previously instructed the suspension of Gudamba police station's in-charge. Further action was suggested against the sub-inspector and beat constable involved. Another case involving a woman being brutally beaten has surfaced, revealing shocking degrees of violence.
