Watch how she bravely prevented a major incident, using her wits!”
The video, split into two, shows three burglars attempting to break into a house. They scale the wall and try to force open the main door, but the woman foils their plan. Seemingly alerted by the CCTV cameras installed both inside and outside the house, she rushed to closed the main door, and used her body weight to prevent thieves from entering. As the video goes on, she secures the door by latching it both at the top and bottom and wedges it shut with a sofa. Towards the end, she calls someone for help and is heard screaming for help throughout the video.
Unable to gain access to the house, the thieves, who had covered their faces with cloth, gave up and left the house.

In March of this year, a mother-daughter duo successfully thwarted a burglary attempt by two armed men posing as delivery boys in Hyderabad’s Begumpet. The two men rang the doorbell, and when the house help answered, they forcibly pushed their way inside.
One of the intruders made his way to the kitchen, brandishing a knife and threatening the maid, while the other was fighting off the teenager skilled in martial arts. The commotion drew the attention of neighbours, who rushed to the house to help. Together, they managed to catch one of the suspects, while the other was later apprehended by the police.
