Mob attacks 3 African men at Delhi Metro station

Three Nigerian nationals were beaten up by people on Sunday evening after they allegedly misbehaved with a woman commuter on the Delhi Metro.

 

The video clips show that the men unsuccessfully sought cover inside and on top of a glass booth in the station used by the Delhi Police, who were notably absent for at least five minutes as the students were beaten with sticks and fists.

 

The incident was reported at 6.15 pm. The woman was travelling on the Yellow Line between Jahangirpuri and HUDA City Centre Metro stations. According to an official of the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), the woman raised alarm.

 

“Other passengers then beat up the three Nigerian nationals. When the train reached the next stop at Rajiv Chowk, the three were forced out of the coach and the station master was informed about the incident. The Nigerians were taken to a Delhi Police booth at the Rajiv Chowk Metro station,” the DMRC official said.
