A Pakistani woman showed bravery by fighting back against criminals who attempted to rob her at gunpoint in Gujranwala, Pakistan. Bisma Shahid, a university student whose mother was with her at the time of the incident, counterattacked and snatched a robber's pistol. Shahid's quick reflexes turned the tables prompting the robbers to beg for forgiveness, but the lady wasn't in the mood to forgive them. She said to the robbers: "Now you are seeking forgiveness but it is of no use now. You shoot people!" "You think that women are weak?" she added. She warned them not to repeat the crime, adding that their video would be shared with the media. Shahid's bravery inspired the bystanders, who held the robbers until the police arrived.
