New Delhi, February 5: A burkha-clad right-wing YouTuber was spotted secretly shooting videos at Shaheen Bagh, where the women-led anti-CAA protest is underway. The activist, identified as Gunja Kapoor, was confronted by the protesters, asking her to explain why she was shooting the videos in a secretive manner. On ascertaining her non-Muslim identity, the women at Shaheen Bagh sought to know why Kapoor was wearing the burkha or the full-body black veil.

In the videos which emerged on social media, a group of women could be seen asking Kapoor to reveal her intentions. "If you are from media, you can shoot the videos freely over here. Why are you wearing a burkha and filming videos secretly," a woman was heard as asking Kapoor in one of the clips. Shaheen Bagh Shooting: Kapil Gujjar's Father Rejects Delhi Police Claims, Says 'Family Not Associated With AAP'.
