The author of the post claims that the venue's security did not intervene, and the police officers who arrived at the scene instead of helping blamed the victim of the attack.
According to her, the man was first taken aside, but later he managed to leave the bar. Meanwhile, four security guards allegedly blocked the girls themselves at the entrance.
The police, as stated in the post, were called by the girls themselves.
View on Threads "Why are you even hanging out in a nightclub?" According to the girl, instead of help from law enforcement, they faced questions about why they were in the nightlife venue at all.
The author of the post claims that when she asked why the police officer did not side with the girls, she reminded him of his mother, wife, or sister.
"If needed, my wife will also get *****," the police officer allegedly replied.
The girl's friend, who, according to her, was in a state of shock, eventually refused to file a report and wanted to leave as soon as possible.
