The confrontation occurred Saturday afternoon, as the victim, riding a two-wheeler with her two children, was followed for 2 kilometers by a car driver who then attacked her, causing severe injuries and a nosebleed.
Seeking justice and highlighting women's safety concerns, the victim recorded a video detailing the incident and shared it on Instagram, where it quickly went viral.

Recounting her harrowing experience, Jerlyn Dsilva said, 'He was blocking me and wouldn't let me go. When the signal was red, I tried to talk to him, but he aggressively took down his window and started abusing me. As he pursued me, he eventually got out of his car and punched me, leaving me blank for ten seconds. His wife did not intervene.'
