Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense (Bengaluru, India) Situation 1
When a car unexpectedly stops while you are crossing the street, a few men attempt to deceive you inside.
Should they seize your hands
- Avoid pushing or pulling them since they are stronger than you and might overpower you.
- To make them take longer to draw you in, stoop a little and stand on your side with your legs slightly wider apart. Avoid facing them or moving away from them in areas where you could lose your balance.
- With your free hand, make a fist with it and twist your hand by pushing your elbow in his direction.
- You can strike him in the face with a closed fist once you’re free.
If they hold your clothes or purse
- Hit the person’s palm with your knuckles, as if you were pounding on a door.
- If they seize your handbag or duppata, release them and flee without trying to grasp onto it.
If they hold you close
- If you have your arms crossed, strike the groin.
- Stomp & hit his feet.

If the men have succeeded in pinning you down and putting you into the auto-mobile…
- To be in a position to kick the person who is responsible, always try rolling to your side.
- Try to move around out the opposite side of the door while you keep kicking.
- Find a pen, rolled-up magazines, or anything else hard that can be used as a jabbing tool inside the auto-mobile by using the seat as a place to lie down and kick hard repeatedly.
- To get the driver to halt or slow down the car, try aiming for his eyes, turning his head, or squeezing his nose.

When two males approach you when you’re out on the town and want to make out.
- When crossing a busy street, always hold your bag or purse closer to your chest.
- If you are able to apprehend the individual, always yell and scream at them. However, avoid hitting or swearing at them, since this could cause a disturbance and put you in danger.
- If you detect a hand coming toward you when he is in front of you, you should use your palm to press against the very soft cervical oesophageal area of his neck, which has the ability to choke him.

In an isolated area, you are riding in an autorickshaw when all of a sudden it stops and two men barge in.
- Kick someone in the knees or groin right away if two males are attempting to enter. Poke the other person in the throat or eyes with your hands. Put your hand on his chin.
- Roll to the side and use your knees to kick the driver’s face if he tries to grab you from his seat.
- Give them what they want if they are requesting money and they are armed. Don’t mistreat them, and don’t cry, beg, or plead. Present a confident image, but refrain from threatening them.
- As you prepare to attack one of these people to make your getaway, try to isolate these individuals.

In your call center taxi, you are the final passenger. The driver stops abruptly and lunges at you.
- Use your legs to kick the driver in the face if he tries to take you off his seat. The car’s backseat has enough room for you to sprawl out and give a powerful kick. Scream aloud while you strike him.
- By lying on your side, you can stop him from jumping on you.
- Use your legs to kick his knees or groin if he grabs you.
- Use your hands to poke him in the eyes or throat if he’s managed to get a hold of you.
- Refrain from taking a nap in the car. That would be noticed by a driver, who would turn that against you one day. Steer clear of calling or talking too much about your personal life. For one thing, you are giving away too much information about yourself, which could lead to him assuming untrue things about you. Secondly, when you are chatting on the phone, you are not paying attention to your surroundings.

There are no people in the office while you work late. Someone unexpectedly approaches you…
- Let out a loud cry as you can. If he shuts your mouth, push your full weight into his hand and use your might to pull it down.
- Bite hard.
- To stamp on his feet with the heels of your shoes, stoop slightly and then take off running.
- Should he attempt to seize you by the waist or approach you from behind, stoop down a little to make it difficult for him to raise you up.
- Step on his feet forcefully, then stomp on his groin. Use your elbows to strike his chin firmly when he curls up in discomfort.
- Hit him in the eyes, throat, or ribs with any implements you may have, such as a pen, keys, or umbrella. Scream and shake in an attempt to get someone’s attention.

You witness three men dragging your companion into the automobile.
- Avoid attempting to take hold of your friend’s hand since this will merely stop her from retaliating. As an alternative, assault the man. Aim for his thumb, groin, neck, and eyes. Never try to slap someone or throw insults.
- Try focusing on the attacker’s scar, the curve of his moustache, and the arches of his eyes. Put the car’s number on paper. Don’t cry or get scared since those emotions will zap or muddle your memories. Make a police call..
Remember this… Dr B L Gangadhar, HOD, Psychiatry, NIMHAMS and Safety Specialist Guruji Franklin Joseph, Founder & Chief Instructor of Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense Academy , Bengaluru, say:
- Scream and make a scene while you are being attacked to draw attention.
- Scream “rape, rape” as opposed to “help, help.” The latter elicits greater empathy from onlookers.
- You can’t (potentially) overcome someone who grabs you with strength, but you can outwit them. Pinch the assailant between the elbow and armpit or the upper inner thigh if they grasp you by the waist from behind.
- Always target the groin after the first blow.
- When he places his hands on you, take hold of his first two fingers and use as much pressure as you can to bend them back as far as you can.
- Take a crash course in boxing, martial arts, or self-defence. Keep pepper spray on hand.
Profile of a rapist
When women are attacked, they may experience mild to severe levels of involuntary paralysis because the attack usually occurs unexpectedly. She finds it violent and extremely stressful, which causes her to lose consciousness. “This action serves as an acknowledgement of consent from the woman to some of the attackers,” says motivational speaker, life coach, and psychological counsellor Ottilie Anban Kumar. The following categories can be used to typically classify attackers:
- POWER ASSERTIVE : Of all those accused, about 44% fall into this group, where they will use force to get the victim to cooperate.
- ANGER/REVENGE : Since they despise women in general, the offender in this case truly wants to punish them. Approximately thirty percent of them fall under this group.
- CRIME-RELATED : This is carried out in connection with another crime, like robbery, kidnapping, or break-in. Approximately 10%.
- DANGEROUS MOTIVE : The most vicious kind of offenders, these people intend to harm or even kill their victim once they have been raped. Thankfully, only 5% of people fit this description.
