Nagar police station, police stepped up efforts to identify the people who instigated the attack on August 2. “We have taken up two cases, including the attack on PSI Latha and PSI Mallikarjuna during the protest, and a case about an injury to a minor boy when he was pushed by the accused while fleeing after the violence,” a police officer said.
