A dangerous situation unfolded in Bhayandar on Wednesday when police officers were met with violent resistance while attempting to evict a family from their rented flat. The Choubey family, who had been accused of refusing to vacate the premises despite the lease expiring in September 2023, escalated the situation to a shocking level.
When police arrived at the Geeta Nagar residential complex to conduct a panchnama, the family initially resorted to intimidation tactics, hurling utensils at the officers. However, the confrontation took a more sinister turn when they threw boiling water at the police, causing severe burn injuries to four constables, one officer, and a panch.
Reinforcements were immediately dispatched to the scene, leading to the arrest of three members of the Choubey family – the parents and their 26-year-old son. Their daughter remains at large.
The incident has raised serious concerns about the safety of law enforcement officials while carrying out their duties. Investigations are ongoing to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the incident and to apprehend the remaining suspect.
This shocking event underscores the potential dangers faced by law enforcement personnel when dealing with volatile situations.
