Argument Begins Over Alleged Staring
The complainant, Ajaybhai Jayantibhai Makwana, told police that he was standing in the parking area when he noticed Vijendrakumar Ramjibhai Parmar, a fellow resident of the housing scheme, sitting in his autorickshaw and allegedly staring at him.
Makwana asked Parmar why he was staring at him. According to the complaint, the question angered Parmar, who allegedly began abusing him.
