00:00Call the women's police, you guys are all men.

00:30Call the women's police, you guys are all men.
00:57I was going from Krishnanagar police station to my house.
01:12There was a green light at Alambagh-Nehariya Chaurah.
01:16After that I moved the car a little ahead.
01:19There was a lot of traffic.
01:20Then there was a red light.
01:22While following the traffic, I stopped my car.
01:26A woman was crossing from the right side.
01:29At the green light.
01:31After crossing, she came back.
01:34She took out my mobile from my car.
01:38Broke it.
01:39Till I came out, I asked her what is my fault.
01:43She didn't say anything.
01:44Then she broke it again.
01:46She damaged my mobile 4-5 times.
01:49Then I went to the police station.
01:52She didn't take any action.
01:54I was just shouting that call the women's police.
01:58Why is she beating me?
02:00The car has also been damaged.
02:02Both the mirrors have been damaged.
02:04And my mobile.
02:05And I had money in it.
02:07She took that out too.
02:08I had kept 600 rupees in the car.
02:11Because an Ola driver doesn't have so much money that he can earn only this much.
02:14When they took us to the police station.
02:16We said, sir, what is my fault?
02:19Please leave me.
02:21The women's side was taken.
02:24Her report was written.
02:26But I was not heard.
02:28Our lawyer.
02:31Mr. Haider.
02:33And Mr. Riyaz.
02:35They got us released.
02:37I was not sent to jail.
02:38I was locked up in the police station.
02:39And I was put in jail.
02:40The police station.
02:42And I didn't get to eat or drink.
02:45I stayed there for 24 hours.
02:47I want my self-respect.
02:50What I have lost.
02:52I want my self-respect.
02:54And the damage to my car.
02:56Whatever happened.
02:58I want it back.
