Mumbai crime, man beaten up, man almost loses eye, BMC officials, clean-up marshals, Santacruz station, spitting
It was as if marshal law was in effect near Santacruz railway station. Jaichand, Dharamveer and Satveer Nishad, who are related, and are carpenters by profession, were walking past the area, when Dharamveer felt a foreign object in his mouth and decided to spit it out. Even before he could wipe his mouth, three persons -- claiming to be clean-up marshals -- appeared on the scene, and allegedly started hitting the Nishads for spewing tobacco.

Hit hard: Jaichand, Dharamveer and Satveer Nishad
