He was then sent to the Babu Jagjeevan Ram Memorial Hospital for treatment. After being examined and treated, the Petitioner gave a statement to the IO in which he stated that he was returning from his scooter repair shop in Inderlok Market with his employee Nafis on his Bullet motorcycle.

The Petitioner stated that Pradeep hit him on the face with a brick while Amit gave a bottle blow on his head. The two other associates attacked him with chairs.

Kewal Singh, who had by then become a Sub-Inspector filed a reply on 20th Oct., 2010 stating that he had handed over the charge sheet to Ct. Sanjay to be filed in the Court. Kewal Singh sought time to search for the charge sheet.
