BENGALURU: A car owner narrowly escaped an attack by some goons at Rauthanahalli Main Road. The goons followed the car with swords and smashed the rear windshield.
The car owner Ashutosh Singh, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), expressed his dismay about the “delayed police response”. He had lodged a complaint with the Madanayakanahalli police. The incident came to light two days after the incident when another X user going by the handle ‘The Bengaluru Man’ (@BetterBengaluro) reposted Ashutosh’s post while tagging Additional Director General of Police (Traffic and Road Safety) Alok Kumar and Bengaluru police commissioner B Dayananda.
