Two wardens on Thursday beat up a fruit vender for refusing them free fruits.
Traffic wardens, one identified as Mujeeb, had been fleecing the fruit vendor for some time. When the fruit vendor, Mohammad Ali, refused to accommodate wardens, the wardens thrashed the vendor.
“The wardens have been forcefully taking peach, banana and apples for the last one month. Today when I refused to give them fruits, they started beating me,” Ali said pointing at his bleeding face.
He said that he did not want to go to the police for he fears more hardships at the police station. “Police and wardens work hand in hand. They will beat me more at the police station,” he apprehended. However, he urged the Punjab chief minister and CCPO to take notice of the situation.
