He further alleged that when he objected to this, deceased Mohd. Rashid intervened by asking as to whether the road belonged to his father. This, according to the complainant, was followed by exchange of hot words and the associates of Mohd. Rashid, including one Aarif, also threatened him with dire consequences. Mohd. Rashid thereupon asked a boy to call his brother. Within about 5 minutes, two accused named in the complaint, namely Ansar and Salim, along with some other persons reached there and started abusing the complainant.

It was further alleged in the complaint that, thereafter, the accused in the complaint took Rashid to hospital after threatening the complainant, who himself received a number of injuries at the hands of accused persons. The police came to the spot and took the complainant to GTB hospital and got him admitted there.
