Gurugram (PTI): A clash between two groups from the same community after Eid prayers in a village in Nuh left more than five injured on Monday.
According to police, the incident, which occurred at 9 am, was a fallout of an old rivalry between groups led by individuals Rashid and Sajid in Tirwada village.
After getting information, teams from several police stations reached the village and restored order. A police team has been deployed in the village to ensure peace, officials said.
The violence started after members of one group, who were going home after offering Namaz at an Idgah, had an altercation with some people from the other side. The two groups then attacked each other with sticks.
After police reached the spot, the violence stopped and the injured were rushed to a hospital.
The police said there is an old dispute between Rashid and Sajid groups in which cases had been filed against both parties earlier.
"In the old rivalry, there was a clash between the groups of Rashid and Sajid in village Tirwada in which Meeru and Hafiz from Rashid's party and Khurshid, Ashmin and Noor Mohammad from Sajid's party got injured and are being treated in hospital," said Krishan Kumar, the spokesperson of Nuh police.
"Some other people from both groups also suffered minor injuries. Our police teams are on the spot and the situation is under control. A probe is underway and an FIR will be registered soon," the spokesperson said.
