Uttar Pradesh: At least nine people were arrested on October 31 after they attacked police officers patrolling near Holi Chowk in Banke's Cantonment in Uttar Pradesh's Bareilly district on Diwali. The police team had reached the spot after receiving information about the men gambling in the area.

On Thursday, Sub-Inspector Trainee Shubham Chaudary along with Constable Manish were patrolling in the Ashraf Khan Cantonment. When the police team was patrolling near Banke's Cantonment, they observed 35-40 people gambling, misbehaving with women and families passing by, and creating disorder.

When the police tried to stop them the group became aggressive, used abusive language, and began misbehaving with the officers on duty. As the police officers protested, the men united and attacked them with sticks, bricks, and iron rods.

The Sub-Inspector and Constable sustained injuries in the assault, following which the former filed a report at Premnagar Police station in Bareilly. Based on the complaint, a First Information Report was registered against the accused for assaulting the police officers with an intent to kill.
