40-year-old thrashed in Jamnagar over old animosity

RAJKOT: A 40-year-old man was critically injured in a brutal assault by two people over some old animosity in Jamnagar city.
Complainant Bhagirathsinh Zala, 40, lodged a complaint naming Hardiksinh Chudasama and Jay Jethwa, who inflicted severe head injuries on Zala. The attack was a fall-out over a 11-month-old animosity when Zala's brother's Jaydevsinh had a quarrel with the accused over a rickshaw mishap, said police.
On Sunday, Zala and his friend Harpalsinh, had gone to watch a night cricket tournament where they came face-to-face with the accused duo. After a brief altercation, Zala and his friend left from there post midnight.
However, the accused followed them and attacked the victims with knives and bats. Zala suffered severe head injuries and his car was also vandalized by the duo, said police.
