A man was issued a challan for ₹ 5,500 by Gwalior police after he was seen driving and performing a stunt in a car covered by 3,400 kiss marks. The man’s partner reportedly spent hours creating the lipstick marks.
The police took notice of the matter after the video of the car covered in kiss marks surfaced on social media. After the police officials found the car, they took the owner to the local police station and fined him under the Motor Vehicles Act. Additionally, the cops also made him wipe away all the lipstick marks from the car’s body. ANI shared a video showing the car. The news agency tweeted, “Traffic Police seized a car with lipstick marks for performing dangerous car stunts on city roads after an Instagram video went viral. One should never do anything that violates the law.”
Under ‘Operation Eagle,’ police tracked the vehicle, issued a ₹ 5,500 challan, and seized the car for traffic violations. He added, “Since I wasn’t aware that doing so was illegal, after the police action, I cleaned the entire car body to remove the lipstick marks and paid a fine of ₹ 5,500.
“Two days ago, a video went viral on social media showing a car with lipstick-like marks on its body moving in the City Centre area,” Traffic Police Inspector Abhishek Raghuvanshi told reporters on Monday. Reportedly, the police imposed the fine on Sikarwar for “modifying the vehicle”.
