A public altercation broke out between a rape survivor and Mahesh Patel, the director of Sabarkantha Bank, leading to a scuffle in Ahmedabad. The incident escalated when the woman called the police control room, and the matter reached Navrangpura police station. 

As Mahesh Patel is an accused in cases registered in Sirohi and Jodhpur, a legal complication arose, leading to a compromise being reached, as per reports.  

An Ahmedabad-based woman had filed a rape complaint against BJP MLA and former minister Gajendrasinh Parmar from Prantij, Sabarkantha, at Sector 21 in Gandhinagar. 

On Saturday, she received information that Parmar would be arriving in a particular car at an event organised at Rajkot Nagarik Sahakari Bank in Navrangpura, Ahmedabad. Consequently, she reached the venue.  

When Patel, the director of Sabarkantha Bank, arrived in the same car at the event, the woman accused him of helping Gajendrasinh escape. This led to a heated argument between the woman and Patel, which escalated into a scuffle. The woman allegedly attacked him. Photos and videos of the entire incident have gone viral on social media.  

Following the altercation, the woman called the police control room, prompting the police to arrive at the scene. Meanwhile, Patel went to Navrangpura police station. However, since Patel has been accused under the POCSO Act in Rajasthan’s Sirohi and Jodhpur, the possibility of further legal entanglements led to no official complaint being filed.
