Mumbai: The Mumbai police are facing an online backlash for their 'moral policing' act at a lounge where 71 youngsters were detained for 3 hours and then fined Rs 38000 rupees, all for dancing indecently.
Most of them were call centre employees having a bite after work. A few couples, eyewitnesses say, were holding hands and dancing.
The arrests have led to huge indignation across the city and the question that many are asking is what defines indecent?
Another says, ''This has even made news here in Melbourne. This is nonsense! What next? Cover up Khajuraho?"
Sources say even senior police officers are unhappy about the action taken. There were no drugs or underage drinking involved.
