BHOPAL: “Instead of shooting a video, people should help the victims,” appeals Prashant Katare, the 32-year-old banker, who foiled an abduction bid on a minor girl at Katara Hills on Wednesday night. The accused was chased by Katare on his motorcycle after girl’s aunt failed to stop him from abducting a girl.

We should always react and help … [Read more...] about Don’t shoot videos, but help people in need: Banker who saved girl
