In the video released by the Delhi police, the woman, who was seated inside the car with her husband, was heard shouting at the police and calling them “beggars” because they asked her to wear a mask. The woman even shouts, “What will you do if I kiss him right now?”
The woman also claimed, “there is no such thing as coronavirus” and that “people are being harassed for no reason.” The woman can also be heard saying in the video, “I have cleared UPSC,” to which a police official is heard responding that since she has cleared UPSC, she should behave more responsibly. The woman also screams, “how dare you touch our car?”
The man also shouts at the police, “can’t you see I am sitting alone with my wife in the car?” and also asks, “if there really was a coronavirus, would it not have entered through our eyes or ears?”
The woman also taunts the police, “make a video, and if you have guts, upload it.” The video was shared by the Delhi police and shortly went viral.
Watch the video that was released by Delhi police:

Police have registered a case against Pankaj and his wife Abha, residents of Patel Nagar in central Delhi. Delhi has been witnessing a massive surge in coronavirus cases in the past few days. They were taken to Darya Ganj police station and both were arrested, police officials said.
Interestingly, while speaking to the media when he was taken to the police station, the man, Pankaj, claimed to Aaj Tak reporter, blamed his wife and said that he was instigated by his wife.
“The problem arose because of my wife. She was instigating me and then we ended up misbehaving,” Pankaj is heard saying to the reporter. When asked whether it was correct to call the police “beggars,” Pankaj said it was his wife who did so and that it was wrong. “When we were in the car, I had been telling her that we should wear our masks, but she refused to wear one and did not let me wear a mask either. We were fighting over that,” said Pankaj.
