A major incident was reportedly averted in Indore late at night after locals and members of Bajrang Dal intercepted a suspicious bus moving in a deserted area.
According to reports, the bus, which usually operates between Sarwate Bus Stand and Khargone, was seen roaming off its regular route around 2 AM. The unusual movement of the bus in a secluded location raised suspicion among local residents.
Concerned locals along with Bajrang Dal workers stopped the vehicle and checked inside. During the inspection, four men were reportedly found in the bus along with a woman. The woman allegedly told those present that she had been abducted and forced into the bus while she was travelling to visit her sister in Jalgaon in Maharashtra.
