Kolkata: Two bikers held for assaulting man in road rage

KOLKATA: Two bikers were arrested for allegedly assaulting a 38-year-old man in a road rage at Ballygunge on Thursday evening.
Dhiraj Kumar, a resident of Asansol, lodged a complaint that he was driving on A C Avenue, when the bikers — Vipul Agarwal (22) from Bediadanga in Kasba and Abhay Agarwal (18) from Picnic Garden Road—overtook him. Kumar raised his voice against dangerous driving and had an altercation with the two who allegedly made him stop his car in the middle of the road and assaulted him.
Locals claimed the bikers were in an inebriated condition. However, the two denied the allegation, claiming that Kumar had abused them in foul language. “Based on our investigations, we brought the accused to the police station and arrested them,”said a police officer.
