Guwahati: In an attempt to go viral on social media, a 24-year-old girl from Chamata landed herself and three others in police custody after performing a dance on the busy Shradhanjali Flyover.
The main performer, identified as Pratima Baishya (24) from Belsar and popularly known as Sweety, was joined in the stunt by Manash Bora (25) from Teok. The act was captured on camera by Peasenjit Paul alias Raj (24) from Bakalia, who is also the brother of the owner of the car (AS31F3666) used during the shoot. Simanta Konwar (25), a resident of Sapekhaiti, was reportedly employed as the driver.
The video, which was filmed with the intention of gaining social media attention, quickly gained traction online, but not for the reasons they hoped. Instead, it drew the attention of law enforcement authorities.
Following the viral circulation of the video, all four individuals were taken into custody by Dispur Police Station. The vehicle used in the incident has been seized, and an FIR has been registered against the group.
Police have confirmed that legal action has been initiated.
