A midnight argument over bursting firecrackers allegedly escalated into an iron-pipe-and-stick assault in Ahmedabad, leaving a 31-year-old autorickshaw driver injured and hospitalised.
The incident took place around midnight on November 9 near a bridge opposite a Ramdevpir temple in Vasna. The victim, Shanibhai Rajeshbhai Parmar, was allegedly attacked after he intervened in a dispute involving his younger brother and a local resident.
The Naroda police have registered a case against three people — Suresh alias Langdo Kantibhai Jadeja, Raju Kantibhai Jadeja and Rajveer Rajubhai Jadeja — all residents of Mahajaniyavas in Naroda Patiya.
Firecracker Dispute Escalates Into Heated Argument
According to Parmar's complaint, his younger brother Kuldeep returned home and told him about an argument between Suresh alias Langdo and Kantibhai Jadeja over bursting firecrackers.
Parmar decided to speak to Suresh in an attempt to resolve the dispute. However, the conversation allegedly turned heated, with Suresh abusing him. Suresh's brother Raju and Raju's son Rajveer also allegedly joined the confrontation.
When Parmar asked the three to speak calmly, Suresh allegedly picked up an iron pipe and struck him on the forehead and the crown of his head.
Two Others Allegedly Join The Assault
The complaint further states that Raju hit Parmar on his left wrist with another iron pipe, causing him to fall to the ground.
Raju and Rajveer then allegedly attacked him with sticks. Parmar's cries for help attracted people to the spot, while his elder brother Kunal also rushed to the scene.
By the time they arrived, the three accused had allegedly fled.
Injured Driver Taken To Civil Hospital
Kunal called an ambulance and Parmar was shifted to Civil Hospital in Asarwa for treatment. The injured driver subsequently lodged a complaint from the hospital.
The Naroda police have registered a case against the three accused and initiated an investigation.
A dispute that began with firecrackers allegedly ended with iron pipes, sticks and a hospital visit.
