The woman - suspecting her husband having an extra marital affair - had obstructed his car and climbed on the bonnet of the vehicle. When the other woman tried to drive away, she ran after the vehicle, opened the door and kicked the man. The traffic movement on Pedder Road was briefly affected. The Mumbai traffic police had then issued a challan to the woman for abandoning her vehicle in the middle of the road, which led to traffic jam. No criminal offence was registered against her too.
