"As we approached the Shastri Nagar road near the dumping ground, we saw a Tavera car parked and we could here loud music emanating from the vehicle. We saw three people consuming alcohol and making a lot of noise. When we asked them to stop drinking and making noise, Gaikwad broke a bottle and came charging towards me, trying to stab me in the stomach," Gurav said. "I immediately stepped back, but he managed to get me on my hand."

Senior Police Inspector Chandrakaant Ghodke from the Kothrud police station, who is the investigating officer in the case, said, "We are looking for the two other suspects in the case." The three have been booked under IPC Sections 353 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty), 307 (attempt to murder) and 506 (criminal intimidation).
