Two inebriated youths allegedly assaulted a couple following a confrontation over reckless driving, according to authorities on Monday. Pooja Jain and Sunil Raghav, both entrepreneurs, faced the attack as they traveled back to Gurugram.
The incident unfolded near Manesar Polytechnic, where their vehicle was narrowly missed by another car. An escalated argument led to one of the accused attempting to push Raghav off a bridge. Jain swiftly called the police’s women’s helpline, leading to an immediate police intervention.
Both accused, Ajay from Ghaziabad and Manoj Sharma from Delhi, were apprehended on site. A firearm was seized from them, prompting charges under the Arms Act. Investigations are focused on the pistol’s history for any other criminal involvements. A court hearing resulted in their judicial custody.
