Faridabad, March 28 After two groups clashed over music played at a club in Omaxe World Street, Greater Faridabad, police have arrested two people, including the son of the establishment's owner, officials said on Saturday.
A woman was allegedly dragged by her hair and beaten, while her father sustained serious injuries in the scuffle, they said.
An FIR has been registered at the BPTP police station, and the arrests were made on Saturday. A video of the brawl went viral on social media.
According to the complaint lodged by the woman's father, she was celebrating her birthday at the club late Thursday night and at one point asked the DJ to change the music. Simmi Arora got into an argument with her and slapped her.
Arora then allegedly called her friends and relatives—around 10-12 people—who attacked the woman, Mehak, her friends, and her father, Raman Grover. They are also alleged to have snatched Mehak's diamond ring, Grover said in his complaint.
On Saturday, police arrested Rishit Chitkara (25), the son of the club's owner, and Dhruv (30), both residents of Faridabad, for allegedly hitting the woman and her friends.
Police said the duo also claimed they were partying in the club at the time of the incident. "They and some of their associates assaulted the victims. The police team is looking for other suspects," a police spokesperson said.
Grover, who came after his daughter called him for help, sustained serious injuries and had to be taken to a hospital, police said.
In his complaint, Grover, a builder from Sector 21A, said he had booked the club, Vayu, owned by Neeraj Chitkara, whom he knew, to celebrate his daughter Mehak's birthday on Thursday.
Mehak is a university student in Canada who is currently home on holiday.
