A minor dispute at the Ghamroj toll plaza near Sohna escalated into a violent clash on Tuesday morning. Over 10 youths vandalised the toll office and assaulted employees.
Six employees of the plaza were injured. An FIR was registered against the attackers at the Bhondsi police station.
The injured toll workers were initially taken to Sohna Civil Hospital. After receiving first aid, they were all referred to Gurugram. CCTV cameras installed at the toll plaza captured the entire incident.
According to the police, the incident took place on Tuesday morning at around 11 am when a young man from Sohna was traveling to Gurugram by car. When he stopped at the Ghamroj toll plaza to obtain a monthly toll pass, a parking dispute arose with the security guard standing there.
