to park their car and bike, five men went on a rampage in the JJ Marg
area in the early hours of Thursday and damaged over 30 parked vehicles
with iron rods. According to police, the men abused and molested some
women at Null Bazar area and then went to Dunkan Road where they damaged
vehicles. The police arrested all the five including the prime
suspect, Imran Kashmiri (35) and Mehdi Ali (32) and booked them for
rioting, molestation and destruction of private property .
“They had gone to Sion to celebrate the birthday of one of them. When they returned to Null Bazar where most of them reside, Imran couldn't find parking space. He got angry and started abusing the women sitting on the footpath there,“ said a police officer. His bike battery was stolen twice and he suspected the homeless women were behind the theft. “He abused and molested the women. When someone called the police control room, they left for Duncan Road near Grant Road. There, too, they didn't find space to park their bike and car.They got angry and started hitting the parked vehicles, including SUVs, sedans and tempos, and broke their windshields.
Hearing the noise, a crowd gathered there. They caught one of them, while four others escaped. Imran was handed over to JJ Marg police. He led the cops to the others, who were then arrested. The VP Road police are also making inquiries since some vehicles from their jurisdiction were also damaged.
