CCTV footage shows Sethi returning home on his scooter when several monkeys pounced on him in Laxman Gali.

The video of the assault has gone viral, sparking anger among residents. Sethi later released a statement calling the incident part of a worsening problem in Hapur, with groups of monkeys terrorizing locals daily.
