In a bizarre incident, a middle-aged man on Tuesday stopped a woman passing by on the road to borrow her phone and check the updates on tragic incident of Dongri building collapse, which claims 14 lives and several feared trapped. However, the lady was shocked when she realised that man had no interest in seeing anything about the building collapse instead he searched explicit content from her phone.
A Twitter user who goes by the name ‘Garam Sankat’ on the micro-blogging site, shared her experience of dealing with this craziness up close. The Twitter user described the incident through multiple screenshots that she posted on her timeline, which is now deleted.
She described the whole incident as follows –
“What happened was, I was walking on the road (the main road with cars and people and everything) on my way back to the hostel. An old uncle stopped me asking if I have the internet on my phone and if I could look up the building collapse that happened earlier today,” describes the person in a text message, a screenshot of which she shared online.
“I thought maybe his family friends live somewhere there and he wanted to check on updates, maybe the poor guy doesn’t have a phone or his phone died or something”.
“So I Googled it and showed him an article about it. Uske baad he says ye exit karke wapas Google results dikhao na (after that, he says exit this and take me to the main Google results page). I was getting a little annoyed but I did so. He’s like ye phone pe sab milta hai kya net pe (can you find everything online on this phone). I said yes ,” she narrates.
“He tried to use the voice command on my phone, it didn’t work (because I’ve disabled it). I was feeling weird and said uncle duty pe jaana hai (uncle I have to go to work). He said ‘ek minute’,”.
And this is where it gets super weird.
“Then he said something which I heard as ‘ispe HDphone dekh sakte hai kya?’ (‘can you watch HDphone on this’). I didn’t get it. Then he tried to take my phone (I was still holding it) and started to type ‘hdporn’. I was like WTF man,” writes the Twitter user. She further added that “I thought he’s an old uncle and I should help? Maybe I am too naive”.
After this, she left the place and doesn’t even look back at the stranger to check if he was following her or not.
Meanwhile, the Mumbai Police, in a now deleted tweet has said that the team would get in contact with her soon to procure details of the incident.
