He shouts something along the lines of “Don’t threaten me with an arrest!” in Marathi. The signboard noticeable in the background also carries words written in Marathi such as the names of locations in Maharashtra. Also, the police badge on the uniform worn by the police officer is specifically emblazoned on the uniforms worn by Maharashtra police officers. It has nothing to do with recent Jahangirpuri violence.
