Woman stripped, assaulted by bouncers at Guwahati nightclub, video surfaces
A woman was allegedly stripped and assaulted by bouncers at The Locals nightclub in Guwahati's Khanapara area in the early hours of Friday, 2 October 2026, according to multiple reports. A video circulating on social media appears to show the woman lying on the floor without clothes while two women kick her. Some men are also seen nearby. NDTV reports the video shows the woman being kicked by two other women. News9Live says both male and female bouncers were reportedly involved, and the assault continued as she was taken from the fourth floor to the parking area.
The circumstances leading to the incident are unclear. Hindustan Times, citing a security guard, reports the woman, a customer, got into an argument with women bouncers after the bouncers objected to her clothes, the guard alleged she hit a woman bouncer. News9Live states the woman was allegedly pushed to the floor and stripped before being assaulted. Guwahati Police have registered a case and an investigation is underway. The club management has not commented.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The three outlets agree on the core facts: a woman was stripped and assaulted at a Guwahati nightclub, a video went viral, and police are investigating. NDTV's short report focuses on the video's content, offering no context or police response, making it the most limited account. News9Live provides a broader timeline, reporting the assault continued from the fourth floor to the parking area, and notes the club was closed when journalists arrived. Hindustan Times adds a specific cause, citing a security guard who said the woman hit a bouncer after being confronted about her clothes, and reports the incident occurred around 1:30am. Hindustan Times also explicitly states it could not verify the video. The guard's account, reported only by HT, gives a possible trigger absent from the other sources, while all three leave the woman's identity and the full sequence of events unconfirmed.
