Police have arrested a 25-year-old man for allegedly trying to kill two people following an altercation in Maharashtra’s Palghar district, an official said on Sunday. The incident took place on Friday evening when a group of persons were enjoying drinks at a locality in Dahanu area. When the accused Nirmal Patel came there, some people from the group asked him why they were not invited to the preparatory meetings for the upcoming Ganesh Chaturthi festival celebration in the area, police spokesperson Sachin Navadkar said.
Patel became angry and allegedly assaulted two persons, aged 33 and 35, with an empty beer bottle, he said. Both persons sustained injuries and were taken to a local hospital where they are currently receiving treatment, the official said. The accused was arrested on Saturday and a case of attempted murder has been registered against him under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code, he added.
