The incident took place in a society in Sector 82, Faridabad last week. The video was shot by a concerned resident of the opposite building who witnessed the entire ordeal.
According to one of the neighbours, the woman did not seek anyone's help or advice on how to get back her saree from the locked house and decided to endanger her son's life. The neighbour recording the video can be heard saying that if the child falls down, nothing will be left of him. He also says that "aise bhi log hote hain (there are people like this)".
"This happened on February 6 or 7. The woman decided to endanger her son for a saree. She should have contacted the society maintenance instead of doing something so dangerous," the neighbour said.
Last year, a two-year-old girl fell from the 12the floor balcony and a delivery driver was hailed as the hero for catching her and saving her life.?“Everything happened within a minute. I didn’t understand how I could scale the roof that quickly. I couldn’t believe I saved the girl’s life,” the driver had said at the time.
