Mohali: Couple booked for bashing neighbour following complaint over pet dog

Kulwant also told Chandigarh Newsline that his wife told him that when she was returning home, the accused also tried to stop her but she managed to escape. “Jaswinder suffered an injury on the head after the brick hit her. I, too, came out of the house after I heard my wife calling me. I saw that my wife was crying and told me that Babbi and Gurmeet had hit her with a brick. When I tried to figure out the matter, Babbi and Gurmeet started abusing me. First, I took my wife inside and then asked the reason for the incident. They also attacked me outside my house. I managed to catch hold of both when some neighbours came and pacified me. But I decided to go to the police,” Kulwant added. He further stated that when he took his wife inside, Babbi and Gurmeet, too, entered their house. But, due to the intervention of the neighbours, they left.

According to Kulwant, Jaswinder was admitted to the Civil Hospital at Phase 6 while Babbi and Gurmeet fled from their home. “We had earlier, too, complained to Babbi as his dog used to enter our house. He could bite our children but the couple always ignored our requests. Sometimes, Babbi and his wife used to take the dog to the park which is again wrong as no one can take their dogs to the parks as per the Municipal Corporation guidelines,” Kulwant claimed.

Acting on Jaswinder’s complaint, a case under sections 341 (wrongful restraint), 322 (voluntarily causing grievous hurt), 506 (criminal intimidation), 452 (house trespass) and 34 (acts done by several people in furtherance of common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) has been filed.
Officials at Sohana police station said the accused couple fled from home after the case was registered.
