Can a Sikh use force against woman to protect innocent people?

I saw a video the other day about a man in india using physical force on a woman police officer for doing something wrong. But it rose a question in my mind, what if a Sikh ( regardless of gender) was in a similar situation. Guru Gobind Singh Ji gave orders to always protect the weak or poor. But Sikhi also teaches us to never hit children or females. I think this is also a really important topic because of all the clashes between Sikhs and indian officials happening in punjab right now. So if anybody was in that situation what should they do ?
