Two of the accused have been recognized as Farman and Sameer, residents of MS Palya.

The incident occurred within the Chikkabettahalli locality as three males have been touring in a automobile, displaying a flag and reciting ‘Jai Shri Ram’ chants in celebration of Ram Navami. They have been stopped by two motorcycle riders, who voiced objections to their chanting.

As these people got out of the car, those on the bike ran away to bring more youths to assault them. In that altercation, one person injured his nose,” mentioned BM Laxmi Prasad, DCP Northeast, Bengaluru City.
