In the viral video, a young man can be seen tied to rope while miscreants force him to act & behave like a dog. The viral video shows a group of hooligans shackling the man, reportedly from other community and threatening to abuse & molest his female family members including sister & mother.
The attackers reportedly thrashed the man before tying him up in chain and also forced him to bark like a dog.
The shocking & startling incident that was recorded on camera is creating anger & outrage on social media. Many people vented anger over the inhumane act and more so against the hatred meted out to man on leash.
