In what comes as a shocking incident, a Russian YouTuber known for her channel ‘Koko in India’ was harassed while she was taking a stroll in Delhi’s popular Sarojini Nagar market. A video which is currently going viral shows the man constantly trying to have a conversation with her asking if she would like to befriend him. The approach, however, is what seems to make her uncomfortable.

“Can you be my friend?" he asks while Koki is live streaming from the market. Further in the conversation, he says that it has been a dream to be friends with a Russian girl. Further into the conversation, he makes an inappropriate remark, making the vlogger completely uncomfortable. He says, “Aap vaise bahut sexy ho. Kya aap (friend) banna pasand karoge?, which translates to “You are very sexy. Would you like to be my friend."
The video has been uploaded on Koko’s YouTube channel and has angered people in the comment section. Here, have a look at the video:
“Being an Indian, I apologise for that guy’s behaviour," commented a YouTube user. Another person wrote, “being an Indian, I am extremely sorry for that shameless and desperate guy. I am sorry that such guys exist in our society. Also, I salute your bravery and the way you ignored that guy."
This is not the first time such an incident has happened. Earlier, Korean vlogger May5w on Twitch had an unsettling encounter with a man. This incident gained significant attention after segments of her livestream went viral. It happened when May was waiting at a tram stop in Central, Hong Kong, around midnight. While waiting, a man approached her, seeking information about tram routes. When they engaged in a discussion and time passed, the woman grew increasingly concerned due to the late hour and the absence of trams. She decided to take the MTR (Mass Transit Railway) instead.

As they talked, the man placed his arm around May, expressing gratitude. She attempted to shake him off, saying “Okay, okay." The man’s behaviour escalated as he grabbed her arm and insisted, “Listen, come with me." May nervously responded, “Please don’t hold my arm."
