On 22nd May, Salim Panni and his gang of five to six individuals threatened and physically assaulted Saba Naaz and her two kids in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh as they were engaged in political discourse outside their home. The main accused, who was passing by their residence, did not like that they were talking about the country’s growing support for Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath as well as the return of the Modi government for the third time. He acted inappropriately towards the woman and her children.
Furthermore, Salim Panni and his friends arrived at her house between one and two in the morning and managed to get the door opened after which they thrashed the victims and threatened to kill them.
