Dhule: Ten days
after a policeman was beaten up by several Maharashtra legislators
in the state assembly complex, another policeman was attacked by
the sons of a former corporator in Dhule, police said here
Wednesday.
The victim, Assistant Police Inspector Dhananjay Patil, responded
to a call about a fight between two groups during Holi
celebrations Tuesday night.
"He (Patil) went there in response to the call and tried to
control the situation. The culprits - Devendra and Bhushan - are
sons of former Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) corporator
Chandrakant Sonar. One of them attacked Patil from behind with a
sword," an official from Dhule's Azad Nagar Police Station told
IANS.
Patil is attached with the Azad Nagar Police Station.
Patil was injured in the sword attack and was admitted to
hospital.
"Patil is in the ICU. His condition is stable," the official
added.
The two brothers have been charged with attempt to murder. Both
are absconding.
Dhule is 325 km from Mumbai.
This is the second attack on a policeman in the state within 10
days. Assistant Police Inspector with Mumbai Police Sachin
Suryawanshi was attacked by several legislators in the Maharashtra
Vidhan Bhavan premises March 19.
Five legislators were suspended and two surrendered, following
which they were released on bail Monday.
