A video is becoming increasingly viral on social media, where a man is seen touching a female journalist inappropriately while reporting. Many social media users have also expressed their displeasure with this video and demanded action against the person doing this.
This video is from Madrid, Spain; this incident happened last Tuesday (12 September). The news is that the person who misbehaved with the woman and the journalist in the video has been arrested.
According to Sky News, journalist Isa Balado was reporting live on a robbery in Madrid for Channel Cuatro when a man approached her—and started touching her inappropriately, which made her uncomfortable. The viral video shows how this man placed his hand on the woman’s body from behind and asked her which channel she worked.
The Anchor Has To Intervene
However, amidst all this, female journalists continue their reporting. Seeing this, the host hosting the program from the studio is surprised, and finally, he asks Isha, “Forgive me for interrupting you… but did he touch your butt?” The female journalist says yes in an uncomfortable situation. The anchor gets angry at this and says, please bring that man in front of me on camera.
“Do you really have to touch my ass?”

On which the person denies that he has done anything wrong. However, after this video went viral, he was arrested by the Madrid Police.
