The complainant, Vinod Parse, who works in a private firm was returning home from work when the incident happened. He was travelling from a local train in the harbour line between 10.15 pm and 10.24 pm. When the train was plying between Cotton Green and GTB Nagar, he got into an argument with two men, identified as Vasant Palekar and Santosh Karanje, who were travelling with him.
Parse alleged that the men, whom he did not know, hit him on his face and leg before anyone in the train could intervene. He suffered a fracture in his leg and also alleged that he lost his gold chain in this altercation.
