While the man can be heard apologising for his actions, the woman yells out demanding to know what kind of forgiveness he was looking for When she threatens to call the security and make a complaint about it , the man can be heard apologising."I will not leave you, don't think," she can be heard saying. In another video , of the same incident, the man can be heard saying that he is willing to write a written apology for touching the woman in question. This story is not an isolated case.
