A grocery shop owner was allegedly attacked by four men with a sword in Madawala in Pinjore here on Monday evening.
As per the complainant, Haakam Singh, the incident took place around 6:30 pm while he was sitting in his shop adjoining his house. "In the absence of customers, there was not much business on Holi. The four suspects, Subhash, Rikki, Naseeb and Gobind, came to the shop in a car and asked for cashew and almonds. They were seemingly in a drunken state. I told them that I didn't keep dry fruits. They started abusing me and barged into my shop, slapped me and dragged me out," the complainant stated.
The victim said he ran into his house and the suspects followed him.
"Subhash pointed a revolver at me. In the meantime, Naseeb brought a sword from inside the car bearing an HP registration number and placed it on my neck," the complainant added. While he was defending the sword attack by Naseeb, it hit him between the neck and a shoulder.
As neighbours gathered, the suspects left the spot in their car. The victim was taken to the Kalka Sub-Divisional Hospital, where the authorities informed the police. A case under Sections 148, 149, 323, 324, 452, 506, 427 and 379-A of the IPC has been registered at the Pinjore police station.
