In a video shared on Twitter by one Aditya, one of the accused is seen pulling the YouTuber by her hand as she shouts “no, no”. As she walks away, the two accused follow her on a bike and offer her a lift. However, she refuses and tells them that her house is nearby. Tagging the Mumbai Police, Aditya tweeted, “@MumbaiPolice A streamer from Korea was harassed by these boys in Khar last night while she was live streaming in front of a 1000+ people. This is disgusting and some action needs to be taken against them. This cannot go unpunished.” Later, the Youtuber retweeted Aditya’s tweet (under the account name Mhyochi in) and confirmed the incident. “Last night on stream, there was a guy who harassed me. I tried my best not to escalate the situation and leave because he was with his friend. And some people said that it was initiated by me being too friendly and engaging the conversation. Makes me think again about streaming,” she tweeted. Meanwhile, the two accused - identified as Mobeen Chand Mohammad Shaikh and Mohammad Naqeeb Sadrealam Ansari - have been sent to one-day police custody.
