Raising awareness about the incident on the social media platform ‘X’, a user said, ‘Whose car is it? Who is the hanging girl? Who is sitting inside? Don’t know.. but the Advocate logo is stuck.. The place is in front of Palacio Mall, Lucknow.. What else is happening is visible to all of you and the police.. The number is also clearly visible..’ (English translation). He highlighted its location near Phoenix Palassio Mall, Lucknow, and urged the Lucknow Police to intervene. With uncertainty persisting about the incident’s nature, the user reiterated concerns about its peculiarities and the potential danger it posed on the road.
