A senior female cop in Mumbai was caught on video slapping a Chinese food stall cook. The incident was reported from Keshavrao Khadye Marg near Mumbai’s Haji Ali circle and occurred earlier on Wednesday. The woman’s actions were caught on video, which subsequently made its way to Twitter and WhatsApp. Following the incident, a non-cognisable (NC) complaint was filed against the senior cop.

The video of the incident shows the female cop making sure that the stall and its seat is removed from the busy road. The female cop then has a brief exchange of words with a man in white shirt, who then lifts a bucket from kept on the roadside. However, something irked the female cop who assaulted the man with two tight slaps.

The complaint was filed by the cook identified by Mohammad Salim. The female cop who was caught slapping the man was identified as Mubarak Shaikh. Reportedly, Salim worked at the food stall when Mubarak arrived and asked him to remove the stall from the busy road. Salim also alleged that Mubarak slapped his co-worker, Parsuram Sahu.

Meanwhile, Shaikh alleged that she had asked to put away the stall owner to remove the furniture as it occupied the busy street and no space was left for pedestrians to walk. She also claimed that she shared pictures of the location with her seniors.

Due to overpopulation and less means of employment, over 50% of the urban labour force is in informal work in Asian developing countries. Street hawkers make a significant subset of those who are in such informal jobs.

And while the city is growing, they do not include plans for those who are informal trading activities. Thus, such individuals are often forced to trade on busy streets, where more often than not, they are found occupying a large space.

This is equally bothersome for cops, who have the responsibility to ensure that the rights of pedestrians and commuters are not breached.
