Father-Son Clash with Police Causes Uproar in Jamia Nagar
In a troubling incident in the Batla House area of Jamia Nagar, SHO Narpal Singh encountered aggression from a father and son while on a routine patrol. The incident unfolded as SHO Singh, noticing the distinctive noise of a Bullet motorcycle, instructed his team to stop the vehicle for an inspection. Upon further examination, it became evident that the motorcycle was equipped with an illegal silencer, resulting in noise levels exceeding permissible limits under motor vehicle regulations.
The confrontation occurred around 8:45 p.m. as the patrolling team observed the loud motorcycle approaching from the cemetery crossing toward the Zakir Nagar market. Acting on the noise violation, they flagged down the rider, 24-year-old Asif, and inspected the motorcycle. The unauthorized silencer not only violated traffic laws but posed a disturbance to the area’s residents. SHO Singh, determined to take appropriate legal action, instructed his team to issue a citation and begin formal proceedings.
As the officers proceeded with the legal documentation, Asif contacted his father, Riyazuddin, who arrived at the scene shortly after. Tensions escalated as the father-son duo began pressing the officers to resolve the matter on the spot. They warned that failing to accommodate their request would lead to “consequences,” implying an attempt to intimidate the police team into bending the rules. When the officers refused to overlook the violation, the duo tried to forcibly retrieve the motorcycle, leading to a physical altercation.
As SHO Singh attempted to secure the situation, Riyazuddin grabbed him, creating an opening for Asif to strike SHO Singh near his eye, inflicting injuries. The altercation left SHO Singh in need of medical attention, and he was later taken to the hospital for treatment.
In response to the assault, police arrested both Asif and Riyazuddin on charges related to attacking a law enforcement officer and interfering with the execution of duties. The incident underscores the challenges officers face while enforcing regulations, particularly when met with resistance. The arrests serve as a reminder of the importance of adhering to lawful conduct, and the police have reiterated their commitment to enforcing traffic regulations to ensure public safety and order in the community.
