A video featuring the son of a bootlegger from Ghanshyam Nagar, Varachha, Surat, went viral on social media. In the video, the young man, Hiren Gohil, a YouTuber and the son of Soma, a bootlegger, was seen with his friends.
They painted their bodies, verbally abused the police, and posted a video performing dangerous stunts with a Scorpio car on the road. Following the video’s circulation, the Varachha police arrested everyone involved.
According to police sources, Hiren and his friends insulted the police before performing risky stunts, such as driving the car through a crowd with his friends on its bonnet.
Varachha police traced the car’s registration number and launched an investigation. Within hours, they apprehended Hiren, his eight friends, who issued an apology.
The Varachha police have filed a case and taken appropriate action. Among the arrested individuals, one is a teenager, while the others, aged 20 to 22, work as labourers.
It is also worth noting that recently, in another incident in the city, cars were detained, and cases were filed against the parents and drivers after students from two schools performed stunts on vehicles during their Farewell Day celebrations.
