Shahjahanpur: An FIR has been registered against a Congress student body leader who is caught on camera threatening a student after she complained of harassment in an Uttar Pradesh college.

The leader has been identified as National Students Union of India’s district president Irfan Hussain, who is absconding.

In the video, Hussain is harassing the student and saying, “You are just in the first year now, you have to stay here for three more years, sudhar jao (better behave). I will make it very difficult for you to enter the college.”

 “Ladki agar daayre mein hai to hi acchi lagti hai (A woman looks good when she stays within limits),” Hussain added.

During the entire argument, the college staff did not intervene.

After the video went viral, the Congress student body suspended Hussain and ordered him not to participate in any activity in the organisation.
