Night-time photograph under an illuminated yellow canopy supported by orange pillars. In the foreground a bald, bare-shouldered man wears an orange cloth draped over his shoulder and holds a white mobile phone to his ear, speaking. Beside him a man in a purple-and-white checked shirt stands close, and a man at lower left is partly visible. Several uniformed police officers in khaki stand around, including a woman officer with a peaked cap and a woman officer with hair tied back. Behind them a crowd of men in white shirts and dhotis watches, and a tall orange scaffold-like frame stands in the background. The scene looks tense and crowded.
