PUNE: Two drunk men, who reached Chakan rural hospital for treatment of injuries after falling from their motorcycle, created a ruckus by abusing and assaulting a doctor, a security guard and a policeman early on Monday.
The doctors at the hospital treated the duo, Shrikant Ambore (24) and Kanhaiya Dhavale (24), both from Kharabwadi, and then handed them over to the Chakan police. Vinayak Mohole, the hospital doctor, lodged an FIR in this connection.
“We registered an offence against them under the Maharashtra Prohibition Act, besides offences under the Indian Penal Code and relevant sections of the Maharashtra Medicare Service, Persons and Medicare Institutions (Prevention of violence and damage or loss of property) Act,” a Chakan police officer said.
Dr Mohole told TOI, “On Monday, around 1am, I was checking patients when we heard someone honking and accelerating a motorcycle. When our guard, Dnyaneshwar Hivrale, told them to stop, they snatched Hivrale’s stick and started hitting him. They pushed and abused me, too.”
After the police reached the spot, one of them started running away. Police constable Bajrang Sable ran after him and caught him. “The suspect hit the constable on his ear, following which he fainted on the spot. The suspect was nabbed later,” Mohole said.
