Hi Guys, This Sat, it happened with me too. But I dont feel ashamed of the incidence, just because I think, I can share some of good and bad points from my experience.
It was about Evening of Sat Sept 13, 2008. and I was coming from Dadar to Kurla. Platform No I dont remember. In the end of the Platform, there was a loo under dark, no lights. Like any other normal gay, I too was tempted to visit the loo and found a guy showing off. Cutting it short, the point is I got tempted to touch him (his). He left the loo and as soon as I came out, he was with another guy, and they caught me. I knew what is gonna go happen. One of those (the first one) held me from collar of shirt (which I feel very offensive). Before he could start something, I started shouting at both of those. I started swearing at the level higher than their. When they tried to threatened me that they are cops, and showed me the ID, I shouted back, that I know what is that. I also shouted that they have made it business and they net the innocent guys in this way and rob them. Believe me, before I started shouting and even after (even before they knew that they have netted a wrong prey), they never spoke anything gay or like that. (Like gud hai too, ya, yahaan gaandu giri karne aata hai... etc etc). My point is, they themselves do not talk about it very clearly. Anyways, as soon as I started shouting, they found that I am a wrong prey and better to leave. They left in the warning mode, as if they are real cops. Now: Why I am telling you all about my stupidity? I accept that it was a foolish act, but sometimes when you commit a mistake it is better to handle it with quick calm mind, rather than falling deep into net. And it is also good to share the tips and tricks you did to come out of the net, which may be useful to others too, in same or similar situation. I dont know what it could had impacted and how heavily, if those were real cops. But Worst could be like I had been really blackmailed, and they had taken a lot of money as bribe. But that was going to happen in anycase in this scene too, if I had fallen soft as they wanted. I know after seeing this mail from me, many of my friends over the group will scold me. But, I am ready to listen all that, I deserve that. But it was also necessary to tell the group about it. One more request to you guys: If anything happens like this, when you are around, dont stay away assuming "Thank God it was not me". It could be you too, if the god were not generous to you. Just like those blackmailers or false cops, we also can be grouped in same situation. If two guys could run away from the scene, just seeing me alone in fighting mode, suppose what could be done if I had been supported there itself by someone like me. I am sure, if two of us were there at the scene, those blackmailers could be taught a nice lesson. (Dont know if that had been a nice handle for the situation or not). Abhay.
