Allegation against petitioner Amar Nath @ Bittu Singh for hitting on the head of the informant with iron rod causing injury to him. Allegation against petitioner no.3 Ankit Singh is putting gamchha on the neck of the informant and trying to strangulate him whereas allegation against petitioner no.1 Prince Kumar is for snatching golden ring.
