Think Before You Act! The age-old proverb was again proven true as can be seen in a viral video. The video shows a boy being thrashed by a group of people at a railway station after being accused of stealing an iPhone.
However, things took an unexpected turn when it was revealed that the boy was not a thief at all and the real thief had taken advantage of the chaos to slip away. The incident, captured on video, has since sparked a range of reactions online, with some showing sympathy for the victim, while others have slammed the people for acting without verifying information.
The video begins with a group of people assaulting a boy, accusing him of stealing an iPhone. However, the situation takes a dramatic turn when the boy insists that he is innocent and that the phone in question actually belongs to him.
To prove his point, he unlocks his phone and shows his personal photos. This revelation leaves the crowd stunned.
Once they realise their mistake, the crowd’s tone shifts. One of the bystanders remarks, "This isn't the thief; it’s clear now." The victim appears visibly shaken and frightened. He is seen asking a person who tried to help him to stay with him as they leave the station, saying, "Please stay with me, otherwise someone might snatch my phone."
The undated video is said to have been recorded at a Delhi railway station.
