He and other staff members tried to resolve the matter, but he threw his bag on the floor and started abusing Monu and other staff members. In the meantime, he called his sister Himani and Mahir Das and an unidentified person also accompanied her. They came there in a Scorpio and assaulted him and other staff. The manager said he had approached the SHO concerned as well as the SSP, Chandigarh, but the police did not lodged any FIR despite the lapse of more than 40 days. The court has sought status report from the SHO of the Sector 3 police station, Chandigarh.
