Ahmedabad: A 25-year-old electrician from Vejalpur was allegedly assaulted by two unidentified men when he attempted to intervene in a fight between two motorists after an accident near Vasna on Tuesday night. A complaint in the matter was registered with Vasna police on Thursday.

According to the FIR, Masud Mansuri was returning home from Lal Darwaza on his two-wheeler at around 10.30pm on May 20 when he saw an accident near a TVS showroom in Vasna. Police said Mansuri parked his scooter by the roadside and stopped to see what had happened.

The complaint states that the two motorists involved in the accident were engaged in a heated altercation. Mansuri allegedly stepped in to separate them and calm the situation.

During the commotion, two unidentified men reportedly arrived at the spot and began abusing Mansuri. When he objected to their behaviour, the duo allegedly turned aggressive and assaulted him.

Mansuri later returned home and informed his family members about the incident before approaching the cops the next day to lodge a formal complaint.

In his complaint, Mansuri stated that he did not know the identities of the two attackers. His brother, Taha Mansuri, has been named as a witness in the case.
