One of the officers told the group that they were not allowed to consume alcohol past 10.30pm and advised them to dispose of the beer.
Sanjiv's four companions poured the beer into a pail and got up to leave, but Sanjiv continued to sit there, smoking his cigarette with his beer cup in front of him.
When the police officer asked him again to throw the beer away, Sanjiv refused and told the officer that he could dispose of it if he wanted to.
The officer told Sanjiv that he could not, because he had not purchased the beer. He asked Sanjiv again to dispose of the beer.
Sanjiv stood up and said: "Technically we are paying for your salary, asshole."
