Bengaluru: Tensions remained high in the Channasandra area of Karnataka's state capital after a group of 50 men reportedly barged into a home at the Isha Misty Green apartment building and thrashed revellers. Officials with the Whitefield Division police said that seven people were arrested in this regard on Friday adding that the accused were irked by the complainants playing loud music during a celebration of the ongoing Navratri festival.

The incident took place when residents of the apartment were celebrating the festival of Navaratri on Thursday night. Around 9 pm, a group of 50 men who live near the apartment in Channasandra barged into the flat where the party was underway and physically assaulted the revellers including young boys.

A little later, the Kadugodi police were alerted about the incident. Upon reaching the scene, cops detained some of the assailants while others fled in no time. A case of trespassing has been registered by the city police by residents of the apartment building. However, the accused have lodged a counter-complaint alleging that the residents were playing loud music which was disturbing their peace.

Meanwhile, police have arrested seven residents including seven people including two women for attacking those celebrating inside the apartment. An investigation into the matter is still underway. A report by The New Indian Express suggests that men accused of barging into the apartment are all drivers and the women, their wives. More details are expected to emerge with respect to the case following a thorough police probe.
