Drunk Nigerian woman creates ruckus in Bengaluru; tied up by police

A drunk Nigerian woman allegedly attacked shopkeepers and policemen at National Market in Bengaluru, which prompted the cops to tie her with a rope in order to restrain her.

The woman, in her late 20s, has been identified as Mariam. Authorities at K.C. General Hospital said that she had to be pinned down physically. Meanwhile, the African Students’ Association has alleged that excessive force was used on her.

According to witnesses, the woman created ruckus and broke glass pane as she turned violent. The Upparpet Police tied her hands with a rope and put her in an auto.

A witness at the hospital said, “She was very angry. Her hands had been tied with a rope when she was brought in the auto. The man accompanying her had an injury near his eye. When she had calmed down a little, someone threw a hospital bed sheet over her and pinned her down before being given an injection.”
