Two extremists on a two-wheeler stopped the bank officers on the way and objected to the female officer’s travelling with her male colleague. They also took her husband’s mobile number from her and informed him about it. The husband replied that he was aware of the incident and personally knew his wife’s male colleague. Yet the two fanatics beat the woman and her male colleague. They also sent the woman home in a rickshaw. The incident got recorded on CCTV which was later circulated on social media.
