REASI, Dec 26: Two bikers reportedly including the brother of a local Naib Sarpanch allegedly looted a tractor driver in broad daylight at busy Bhambla Chowk of Pouni here. Police have registered cases against the miscreants under relevant sections.
According to reports, two bikers intercepted a tractor, when it was on its way to refill the fuel near Bhambla Chowk and started beating the driver and allegedly snatched Rs. 5,000 from him. The miscreants also took away the sale letter of the vehicle and damaged the tractor before fleeing away from the spot.
The driver of the vehicle has been identified as Gulshan Kumar son of Dev Raj, a resident of Sadeen, Pouni in Reasi. The registration of the bike, which the miscreants used to loot the driver, has been reported as UP 3426. Immediately on the receipt of information, police reached the spot and spoke to eye witnesses.
On the basis of complaint, situation at crime scene and statement of witnesses police registered FIR No 88/2021 under section 323, 341, 506, 427, 382 and 34 against the accused, who have been identified as Abinandhan Prashar, son of Sanjeev Kumar, a resident of Makol, Sudnerbani and Rashpal, son of Nanak Chand, a resident of Barnada, Sunderbani.
It is stated that Rashpal is the brother of the local Naib Sarpanch of Nallah Panchayat and such a crime in the broad daylight vindicates that hooligans are encouraged due to the influence of Naib Sarpanch. Meanwhile, locals appreciated the immediate response of the police and demanded that strict action should be taken against the miscreants, so that such attempts may not repeat in future.
Meanwhile self styled You Tube journalist Abhinandan has been arrested by police and FIR no. 88 under various section stands registered while another accused Rashpal is absconding. |
