A video has emerged online allegedly showing a young couple being assaulted and harassed by a group of people in Odisha's Dhenkanal district, near the popular tourist destination of Kapilash. The incident reportedly occurred on a road leading to Kapilash while the couple was traveling on a motorcycle. The footage shows several individuals surrounding the couple, with the man being physically assaulted and the woman subjected to inappropriate behavior by some of the men present.
The woman can be heard repeatedly pleading with the group to leave them alone, but the alleged assault and harassment continue in the video. The circumstances leading to the confrontation remain unclear, and it is unknown why the couple was stopped, if they knew any of the participants, or if an argument had preceded the recording.
Odisha police have identified some of the alleged perpetrators and stated that strict action will be taken after a thorough investigation. This incident follows a recent case in Bihar's Jamui district involving a minor boy and girl, which led to public outrage and police action. In that case, three people were arrested, and a Special Investigation Team is actively searching for others involved.
