A parking dispute turned violent in Guwahati, resulting in a man being assaulted and robbed by four individuals in the early hours of Saturday, March 16. The shocking incident unfolded near Guru Nanak High School on Dr B.K. Kakati Road, leaving the victim with multiple injuries.
According to eyewitnesses, the altercation began at around 10:15 PM on Friday when the victim requested one of the individuals to park their vehicle, which was obstructing pedestrian movement. Instead, the accused began to shout at the victim using abusive language, prompting three others to join in and physically assault the man. The victim’s 10-year-old daughter and wife, Dipika Jain, witnessed the harrowing scene.
The group allegedly snatched the victim’s gold chain and purse containing approximately ₹15,000 in cash. Bystanders soon gathered, and the accused fled the scene in two vehicles, recklessly damaging other parked cars in the process. A formal complaint has been lodged with the Paltan Bazar police station.
The police are currently trying to track down the suspects, with an investigation underway. A spokesperson for the Paltan Bazar police station stated, “We are working to apprehend the accused and gather more information. We cannot provide further details at this time.” The investigation is ongoing, and more details are awaited.
The incident has sent shockwaves through the community, with residents expressing outrage and concern over the brazen nature of the attack. The Guwahati police are under pressure to resolve the case quickly and bring the perpetrators to justice. As the investigation unfolds, it remains to be seen whether the authorities will be able to recover the stolen valuables and provide justice to the victim.
In the meantime, the community is left grappling with the disturbing reality of a violent and lawless Guwahati, where even a dispute over a parking spot can escalate into a serious crime. As authorities work to contain the situation, it is imperative that residents demand stronger measures to ensure public safety and order in the city.
