A COUPLE of weeks ago, a disturbing incident occurred in India at one of New Delhi's busiest metro stations. Two Nigerian nationals who allegedly misbehaved with women were subject to Indian ire, mob-style. A shocking video captured on a phone showed the two perpetrators attempting to take shelter in a police booth in the station, but being mercilessly beaten by male commuters to chants of Bharat Mata ki Jai! and Vande Mataram!, which roughly translate to "Salutations to Mother India!"
Clearly, the Indian crowd at the station that day believed the Nigerians had no right to tease Indian women - something they perhaps believe is entirely their prerogative.
