GANGTOK, 13 Aug: Incidents of assault, particularly with weapons, seem to have become more frequent. In Nayabazaar, West Sikkim, a group of about 6 to 7 youth reportedly assaulted a couple of persons with iron rods seriously injuring one of them.
The assailants are yet to be traced by the police.
According to reports, two of the accused have been identified as Ajit Rai [alias ‘Tyson’] and another as Sajit Rai. They were allegedly accompanied by around 6 other persons in the assault on Anand Rai and others.
It is informed that Anand Rai along with Gopal Rai and others of Rohtak, West Sikkim, were in a canteen owned by Santosh Rai on the evening of 10 August, when, at around 9 PM, a group of youth arrived in a vehicle and began assaulting them with iron rods.
In the incident Anand Rai is reported to have sustained serious injuries and was rushed to the Jorethang PHC from where he was forwarded to the Namchi hospital. The Nayabazaar police are yet to trace the accused party which has been booked on charges of rioting and the case is under investigation.
