How it happened?
When Licypriya left her apartment complex on Sunday night to go shopping for Diwali with her mother, she started a Facebook Live discussing Diwali decorations and about enjoying Diwali without crackers. The two bike-borne males arrived, took her phone, and left in an instant.
She made a report at a police station in Greater Noida, the location of the occurrence.
It’s so urgent, she even tweeted, identifying the Noida Police and pleading for their assistance. “While I was broadcasting live on Facebook in front of the Bellana Street market in Greater Noida’s Sector 16B, across from Nirala Aspire, my mobile phone was just taken by two bike-borne robbers. Please help me!”
