In a disturbing incident, a salesman at a petrol pump tuck shop in Lahore’s Garden Town area was attacked by three girls, allegedly daughters of a prominent individual. The incident, caught on CCTV, has spread widely on social media.
The footage depicts the girls verbally and physically assaulting the salesman. An elderly man nearby tried to intervene but was also subjected to verbal abuse by the girls, who are reportedly the daughters of a lawyer.
According to the tuck shop owner, the girls left without paying for the items they took. They claimed the salesman was laughing at them, a claim denied by the tuck shop owner.

A social media user shared their perspective, stating, “This is the Total Petrol Pump on Usmani Road in Garden Town. I recognize the salesman on the right. I stop there almost every day when I’m in Lahore.
He added, “These guys are extremely polite, well-mannered, and pleasant salesmen you can come across. Really sad to see this.”
