Panigate police officers said the incident occurred in Sudamapuri slums area on Thursday night, when two brothers — Govind and Mukesh Pateliya — were beaten up by their neighbours.

“Govind and Mukesh were flying kites along with the accused, when they fought on a minor issue. After sometime, Govind's kite fell in Kirit's compound. Kirit and Punit attacked Mukesh with sticks,” said a police official.

Mukesh was severely beaten up and got serious head injuries. The duo stopped beating Mukesh after Govind reached their house with some neighbours. Police said Kirit and Punit were in inebriated state and had fights with other neighbours on similar issues. “We are looking for these troublemakers, they are still at large.”
