NYPD messed with the wrong human rights lawyer

Chaumtoli Huq was arrested for standing on the sidewalk while waiting for her kids to use the bathroom.



In New York, a human rights lawyer has filed a lawsuit against the NYPD after she was arrested for blocking the sidewalk while waiting for her husband and kids to use the bathroom at a Times Square restaurant.

Human Rights Lawyer Arrested For Standing On NYC Sidewalk Waiting For Kids To Use Bathroom

Chaumtoli Huq, a human rights lawyer and former general counsel for Public Advocate Letitia James, had just left a pro-Palestinian rally in Times Square with her husband and two young children when they stopped to use the bathroom at Ruby Tuesday. While she was waiting in front of the restaurant, officers approached her and demanded she clear the sidewalk. That's when some unreasonable shit went down.
