Guwahati, 17th December: In a horrifying incident that occurred on G S Road, a group of inebriated youths created terror with wielding rods, bamboos, and even a wooden wind instrument.
The incident was reported near Pancham tower at the GS Road in Guwahati city.
As per sources, the rampage began near the Fifth Tower, when the intoxicated youths allegedly assaulted a man without any apparent provocation.
Speaking to the media, one of the victims said, “We were assaulted without any reason. After attending Arijit Singh’s concert at Barsapara, we were on our way home when the gang, equipped with rods, wooden sticks, and bamboos, targeted us.”
As chaos ensued, the assailants sought refuge within the premises of the Fifth Tower.
After some time, the police reached the spot.
The gang of unidentified youths fled from the spot on the pretext of police coming.
