Digital Desk: Social media users are now sharing a video of a Pakistani reporter slapping a small kid for allegedly heckling her as she spoke to the camera. The journalist can be seen covering the Eid al-Adha celebrations in Pakistan in the video, which has received more than 3.8 lakh views on Twitter as of right now.
There are locals surrounding the
journalist, including women and children. But as soon as she finishes her
report, she slaps the young boy next to her who is wearing a white shirt.
According to media accounts, she smacked the child for taunting her as she was
speaking to the camera. However, when asked why the reporter slapped the
youngster, the unverified account that posted the video responded in the
comments section, "DK (Don't know)".

users. The youngster must have misbehaved, some social media users tweeted in

journalist lost her calm, even though the internet was taking sides. To better
grasp the situation, a Twitter user added the following comment to the post:
