Two groups clash over caste-based remarks, 4 injured

Four persons, including a law student, got injured after a fight broke out between two groups at the Sohna bus stand over caste-based remarks. The injured are being treated at a Gurugram hospital. The police have registered a case.

According to the complaint filed by a software engineer Abid, he travels to Delhi for work every day by bus. On Saturday morning, as he was boarding a bus at Sohna, a young man standing nearby started abusing him. An argument followed and Abid called his brother Zuber, who works as a home guard.

“Meanwhile, the man called five or six of his friends, who were carrying sticks, and they attacked us. They also attacked a law student Mustafa and a Mahoun village resident Yusuf, who were standing nearby. After injuring us, the accused fled from the spot,” Abid said in his complaint.

After getting the information, a police team reached the spot and rushed the injured to hospital in Sohna from where all injured were referred to Gurugram.

“An FIR has been registered against unknown accused. Footage from nearby CCTV cameras is being examined to identify them. They will be arrested soon,” inspector Ravinder Kumar, SHO of the Sohna City Police Station, said.
