According to sources, the incident occurred at Kilokari village, Maharani Bagh around 11.30 pm. The four individuals including one Yambem Kendy Singh, his wife, sister and friend were reportedly attacked by a gang of 10-15 unknown miscreants.

It is learnt that they were approached by three individuals, including a woman, seeking help on the pretext that their phone died, following which Kendy even booked a cab for them.

However, things took a turn when the second party reportedly called their friends and allegedly attacked Kennedy and his team, following which a scuffle broke out between the two sides. The miscreants did not even spare the female companions of Kendy, sources added.
