Earlier, police had arrested Satender alias Sonu (49) and Sanjay Sharma (56), both from Mehram Nagar.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/>Police said Satender and Sanjay were in their SUV when they were confronted for consuming liquor in a public place inside the vehicle.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>Investigations revealed that Surjit is acquainted with the main accused, Satender. <!-- -->The group was reportedly together in Mehram Nagar when Surjit received a call from Satender regarding a quarrel in Vasant Enclave. They then drove to the spot in Surjit\u2019s white car.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>An officer said that a confrontation took place upon their arrival, after which they returned home. However, once they learned that a case had been registered, they went into hiding and were later tracked down and arrested.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>\u201cThe car used in the incident has been recovered. Further examination is underway,\u201d the officer added.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>Police said Satender is a director at a firm providing aviation services, including chartered and cargo flights, and is also involved in the sale and purchase of aircraft and related parts. Sanjay Sharma runs a dhaba in the area.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>An FIR has been registered at Vasant Vihar police station under sections 115 (voluntarily causing hurt), 126 (wrongful restraint), 351 (criminal intimidation), 79 (word, gesture or act intended to insult the modesty of a woman), 191 (rioting), and 190 (every member of an unlawful assembly guilty of an offence committed in pursuit of a common object) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>Speaking to TOI earlier, the brigadier\u2019s wife had said that the incident took place at 9.45 pm on Saturday when the family had stepped out for a stroll. She was walking slightly behind her husband and son when they noticed two men consuming liquor inside a car parked near the society gate. In her complaint to police, she alleged that when they objected and asked the two not to do so, the men allegedly misbehaved, used abusive language and passed remarks that outraged her modesty.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>Following the confrontation, the family dialled 112, the police helpline, and a PCR vehicle reached the spot at 10.15 pm. However, the situation escalated in the presence of police personnel, the woman alleged. The occupants of the car talked to the cops and even made them speak to someone over the phone, after which no action was taken against the two, she claimed, adding that the PCR personnel, too, behaved improperly with her during the interaction.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/>Soon after, two more cars arrived and seven to eight men, allegedly known to the two men who were drinking, stepped out. \u201cThey threw my son to the ground and started beating him,\u201d the woman alleged. He suffered multiple injuries.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/>When the brigadier intervened, two-three men surrounded him and assaulted him as well, leaving him with bruises, including on his elbow.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"31\"\/><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/delhi\/4-more-arrested-for-assaulting-brigadier-son-in-delhis-vasant-vihar-for-objecting-to-public-drinking\/articleshow\/130323525.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW DELHI: Four more people have been arrested in connection with the assault on a serving Brigadier and his son in southwest Delhi\u2019s Vasant Vihar last Saturday, taking the total number of arrests in the case to six.The accused have been identified as Surjit Singh (36), Sunil Sharma (53), Ashish (32), and Satender (35), residents [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4396,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[150],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4395","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-delhi"},"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4395"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4395\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4396"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4395"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4395"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
