Gurugram Mall and Restaurant Owner Dispute Over Utilities
A restaurant owner from South Korea in India is having problems with the mall where her restaurant is located.
She says the mall cut off her electricity and water.
She thinks the mall is trying to make her leave.
She also got a bill for a lot of money for damage the mall claims she caused.
The owner says this isn't her fault.
The police stepped in to help the two sides talk things out, and electricity was restored.
But they still need to figure out the money issue and have another meeting.
