The victim was at first afraid to make any reports because he was threatened by the suspects.
The police are now investigating the case under Section 147 of the Penal Code and the possible sentences are a maximum of two years jail time or a fine, or both.
We hope that the victim recovers safely from the injuries and justice will be served. Bullying and violence is never the answer.
