Muzaffarnagar, June 13: The Muzaffarnagar police have arrested three persons, including two brothers, after they threatened to behead a burqa-clad woman who had gone to buy alcohol from a liquor shop. A video clip of the incident has gone viral on social media.

The woman, in her 30s, had apparently gone to buy alcohol from a liquor shop when she was stopped by Baku a.k.a Shahnawaz (40), Adil Ahmed (30), and his brother Sajid Ahmed (35). The men warned her of "consequences", if she tried to do it again.
