In a disturbing incident unfolding in the late hours of the night in Guwahati's Japrigog area, a group of journalists found themselves at the receiving end of a terrifying assault by three inebriated youths.
The unsettling ordeal began when the journalists, diligently on duty to gather news, were allegedly accosted by three young men on a scooter, whose demeanor quickly turned aggressive.
As per reports, the situation rapidly deteriorated as the trio allegedly unleashed a volley of abusive language directed at the journalists.
Despite the journalists' attempts to defuse the escalating tension, the inebriated youths persisted, brandishing bottles of liquor as weapons and menacingly advancing toward the startled journalists.
