Ayesha Takia’s Instagram posts
In a series of posts on Instagram Stories on Tuesday, Takia, Ayesha said it was her husband who dialed 100 for help but ended up with a complaint against him. "It was a night of horror for our family up until this morning... Just saw this post and need to share. I will share more in due time... My husband and son were brutally bullied and scared for their life as local Goan goons mobbed, threatened, and tormented them for hours... They even badly roughed up the police who were called by my husband to protect our son and him," Takia posted.
"The hatred for Maharashtra has reached unbelievable heights in Goa...as they repeatedly cursed Farhan and my son for being from Maharashtra and having a big car. The police, in turn, have filed a complaint against Farhan when he was the one in fact who dialed 100 for help against the large crowd of almost 150 people," she added.
In another post on her Instagram stories, Takia wrote that the family has "video proof and evidence" including CCTV footage that they will share with competent authorities in due course of time.
