Parents Catch Son and Girlfriend Having Chowmein, Thrash Them in Public

On Friday in Kanpur, a 21-year-old man and his 19-year-old girlfriend were publicly thrashed by the former's parents. The event occurred at the Ramgopal intersection, near the Gujaini police station. A video of the incident has gone viral.

According to the police, Rohit was eating chowmein with his girlfriend when his parents, Shivkaran and Sushila, arrived on the scene.
