A Delhi couple which had a big altercation of the cops over not wearing masks in their private vehicle, has now been sent to the Tihar jail.

As per journalists, a local court refused to grant them bail after the cops slapped them against a slew of charges like sections 188, 186, 353, 269, 34 of the IPC along with section 51B of the Delhi Disaster Management Act.


Many social media users while criticising the behaviour of the couple, condemned the decision to jail them, while terming it as excessive.

In the viral videos, the wife supported by her husband can be seen rudely arguing with cops, which included abusing the police personnel while boasting that she has cleared the mains exam of UPSC Civil Services. She also yelled at the cops asking them as to what they would do if she kisses her husband in front of them.


Following the fracas, the husband was arrested and taken to the Daryaganj police station. Later while speaking to the media he claimed that his wife was in the wrong. He added that he was asking his wife to wear a mask but she did not listen to him and also did not allow him to wear one. The wife in turn has blamed her husband over this incident.
