In a shocking incident, an elderly woman was dragged on the road as she held on to her purse which was being snatched by a couple of thieves on a bike, in northern India’s Punjab.
This incident happened in Mota Singh Nagar area of Jalandhar district on April 17.
CCTV footage captured the chilling visuals of the lady being dragged across the road. The woman held onto her purse which was grabbed by the pillion rider and the bike swiveled on the road, causing her to be dragged in a very nasty manner. She also seemingly took a blow to her head which was dragged against the road as the tussle between her and the pillion rider continued for her purse.
