Delhi Police have apprehended four men in connection with a viral video that appeared to show the assault of a woman during a protest. The incident reportedly occurred on a stretch of DDU Marg, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Kamla Market police station. The video gained significant traction on social media, prompting various organizations, including the Indian Youth Congress and the All India Students’ Association (AISA), to circulate the footage along with posters identifying those involved.
According to an official police communication, authorities acted after receiving intelligence that the suspects were preparing to flee the Delhi-NCR region during the night to go underground. Due to the high visibility of the video and the immediate risk of the accused absconding, police teams tracked the men and took them into custody. The individuals have been identified by the police as 50-year-old Raman Saini, 32-year-old Vivekanand (also known as Vivek), 27-year-old Kapil Kumar, and 35-year-old Ravinder Singh, who is also known as Govind Hindu.
While the video has been widely shared online, police stated that they have not yet received any formal complaint from the alleged victim or any other organization regarding the incident. Despite the absence of a registered complaint, authorities initiated the arrests to prevent the suspects from evading law enforcement. The police communication indicated that further necessary legal action would be determined during the day as the investigation continues.
