To folks commenting and telling me that the boy has been careless... You are the privileged 1% of the population, have you cared how 99% of India travels? A guy after work has somehow managed to get into a crowded bus, and found a place wherever possible to store luggage. A…

I'll also give you a bit of cultural context here because I have lived in Uttarakhand for 10+ years. Once you leave the plains and head into the mountains, we are a very safe community up here. There are hardly any incidents of petty thefts in buses or shared taxis or pickpocket…

Update: A copy of a written complaint by Mukesh has been shared with @elecityps via DM. They also have his contact details. Let's hope for the best that his documents are found 🙏 Kindly don't tag police handles anymore as it clogs their notifications.

@kalapian_ @Kyangs_Thang Happens most of the time. Tuned back with jurisdiction excuse. I was even asked once if the incident is on this side of the tree or the other as the jurisdiction was divided by the tree.

@kalapian_ I don't know what to say except that I feel sorry. I've had absolutely horrible experience with the police as a local in Bangalore.

@samanya_kumar I'm from Bangalore living in Uttarakhand for the last decade. All I could do yesterday when I heard this incident was hang my head in shame. At least the cops could have shown some human sympathy. Made him sit down, have a cup of tea, given a fair hearing and registered an FIR.

@kalapian_ I was going to my native (a rural tamilnadu) by bus (same TN) bus type, 10 years before. On that day, I was very tired and kept my bag tightly and slept. I was aware of the thieves so I wanted to be very careful. I woke up near to my busstop and was very happy. I still have my…

@kalapian_ I am sorry that this unfortunate incident happened, and the police should have helped, no question in that. But when creating attention for help, please use careful choice of words. "They were not even interested in trying to speak to him in hindhi". It sounds like you think…
