Bulldozers demolished a part of the illegal extensions at the residence of Shrikant Tyagi who abused and pushed a woman at a housing society in Noida last week, a video of which came to light later, officials said.

While the bulldozers partially demolished the glass roof and wooden pillars, the workers took over after 10 minutes as the bulldozers could not enter the narrow path. (Video screengrab/ Express)

The demolition comes a day after his alleged associates turned up at the society asking for the woman’s address. A first information report (FIR) has been registered against Tyagi and sections of the Gangster Act have been added to it, but he is still on the run, the police said.
