The infuriating video shows the two men spraying the elderly's face with snow right in the middle of a busy road in Uttar Pradesh's Jhansi district.

As soon as the locals came to know that a Bangladeshi was shooting videos of girls in Datar Colony of Bhandup Kanjoor area of Mumbai... they called Mr. Manoj Chavan, General Secretary of the MNS party.
After that, the Bangladeshi was handed over to the police… pic.twitter.com/zwV8GAksbG
According to reports, Irfan Ahmed Majid Ahmed, who works at a shop in Ashok Nagar, Mumbai, found himself in serious legal trouble after filming the girls without their consent.
