In a bizarre and unsettling incident from Surat, gujarat, a Friendship Day celebration took a dramatic turn when police raided a hotel room and arrested four men and two women for consuming alcohol. The raid took place in Room 443 of the Hotel Weekend Address, after the police control room received an anonymous tip-off about illegal alcohol consumption. Among those arrested was a young woman who was celebrating with friends—unaware that her private gathering would be interrupted due to a tip-off from her own father-in-law. The police recovered liquor bottles from the room and booked the group under relevant sections of the gujarat Prohibition Act.

As the case unfolded, it was revealed that the anonymous caller was none other than the woman’s father-in-law. The woman, who is reportedly having an ongoing marital dispute with her husband, had chosen to spend Friendship Day with her friends in a private hotel room. Furious at her actions and possibly looking to further strain her image during legal proceedings, the father-in-law made the call to authorities. While he may have intended to teach her a lesson or gain leverage in the ongoing domestic issues, his plan has now backfired in an unexpected way.

The police, now probing deeper into the case, have expressed concern over how the father-in-law came to know such specific details—like the hotel name, room number, and timing of the party. Officials suspect that he may have been tracking or stalking his daughter-in-law’s movements, raising serious concerns about privacy and potential harassment. Authorities are now considering filing a case against him for unlawful surveillance and misuse of police resources. The incident serves as a stark reminder of how personal disputes can spiral into public legal drama, where both sides risk legal consequences and reputational damage.
