India: A shocking video from a football match in Chennai is going viral that shows fans in a stadium harassing few people from the northeast.

The footage shows a group of men dressed in blue making obscene gestures to the women seated at the Jawaharlal Nehruindoor stadium (also known as the Marina Arena) in Chennai on Thursday evening, reports the Indian Express.

The incident took place during the ongoing Indian Super League, in a match between Chennayin FC and NorthEast United FC.

It’s not clear what the men were saying from the video but body language clearly suggest the women were uncomfortable.

The footage also shows a woman lastly pushing one of the men away but that only motivates him to ridicule her further.

One man is seen sitting next to her and as he too tries his best to keep him away from her, others just watch in silence.  Not a single person can be seen protesting or stopping them.

IndianExpress.com could not verify the video independently, but the footage was shared on a Facebook page called Indian Football Team- For World CUP and has got everyone talking, including John Abraham, who owns the NorthEast United team.

The video created a huge uproar on Twitter and Facebook and many condemned the ‘racist’ act including Kiren Rijiju. Many people from Chennai, inluding the Chennaiyin FC apologised.
