Rajkot: Videos of a medical student threatening and using obscene langauge against a woman whose cycle he rammed with his car have caused a flutter on the social media.
The student claimed to be a close relative top Gujarat politicians and flaunted his political as well as police connections to threaten the woman.
The student was detained for allegedly ramming his car to a woman cyclist on Nirmala Road in Rajkot on early Saturday morning. He was later let off by the police as the woman did not lodge any complaint in this regard.
Though no police case was registered, the incident has created a sensation as its video clip has gone viral on WhatsApp and social media.
In the video clip, the student is heard hurling abuses and saying, “Vijay Rupani is my uncle and Rajkot deputy commissioner of police Manoharsinh Jadeja is my father’s friend. I come from the family of advocates. You can’t do any harm to me.”
The video shows that when a passer-by tries to intervene, the student is heard threatening him too: “Don’t involve yourself in this matter, or else I will frame you in a police case.”
Sources said that the student is not related to any politician but only wanted to intimidate the hapless woman.
