Assistant Sub Inspector, Gouse Pasha, attached to Yelahanka New Town police station, in his complaint said that the incident occurred on Wednesday near Rail Wheel Factory on the Yelahanka-Doddaballapura Main Road in Yelahanka New Town around 11.30 pm. Pasha stated that he was on night rounds that day and was asked to come near Rail Wheel Factory by the Hoysala patrolling staff as a man under the influence of alcohol was creating a nuisance.
“The suspect sitting in the driver’s seat was shouting and creating a nuisance. When I tried to talk to him, he saw my badge and started insulting my religion,” Pasha added in the complaint.
The police had arrested him. Investigations are on.
