'Just For The Sake Of A Reel': Youth Apologises After Video Allegedly Shows Him Throwing Stones At Mumbai Local; VIDEO

A youth from Digha has faced legal trouble after a video surfaced on social media, allegedly depicting him attempting to throw stones at moving Mumbai local trains and making obscene gestures at passengers. The video was traced by the Railway Protection Force (RPF) Sanpada, leading to the youth's identification and booking under relevant sections of the Railways Act.

In an apology video, the youth claimed that the incident was staged for a reel and not intended to harm anyone. "Hello, the video of mine that has gone viral, that wasn't supposed to be an issue of hitting a train. I made that video just for the sake of a reel. I didn't actually throw that stone at the train; I threw it aside. I only acted like I was throwing it at the train," he stated.

The youth expressed remorse, promising not to repeat such actions. Police are now investigating the footage and circumstances surrounding the incident to determine if any train or passenger was endangered. Authorities have warned against dangerous stunts near railway tracks to prevent potential legal and safety consequences.
