JAMMU, Sept 7: A police Sub Inspector Rahul Mahajan, posted at Janipura police station, was attacked by a miscreant when the former had gone to arrest him at Janipura Colony last night.
Reports said the Sub Inspector had gone to arrest a drunk miscreant Chunna at Janipura Colony following reports that he was creating nuisance in the locality.
The miscreant pelted stones on SI Mahajan and fled away from the spot. The SI was hit by a stone on his nose causing him a deep wound. He was admitted to SMGS Hospital, where he underwent nose surgery.
Surprisingly no one from police visited the Sub Inspector in the hospital to inquire his condition. It was only after the SI’s father met SSP Jammu Atul Goel that two police officers proceeded to the hospital.
SI Mahajan had suffered deep injuries on his nose after being hit by the stone.
Meanwhile, police parties headed by SHO Janipura Inspector Niaz-ul-Hassan have launched searches to nab Chunna, who was absconding. A case has been registered against the accused at Janipura police station.
