Bengaluru: The police have arrested two men for allegedly stabbing two bar patrons in north Bengaluru’s Rajagopalnagar early Tuesday morning.
The suspects, identified as Vishnu, 22, and Vishwa, 31, both residents of Rajagopalnagar, were remanded to judicial custody by a court.
The police said the incident occurred around 12.30 am on Rajagopalnagar Main Road. Bar patrons Hemanth Kumar and Srinivas had stepped outside after a few drinks and began arguing.
Vishnu and Vishwa noticed the altercation and attempted to intervene. However, tensions escalated, leading to a clash between the patrons and the duo. During the scuffle, Vishwa allegedly pulled out a knife to threaten the men, but ended up injuring Kumar and Srinivas in their stomachs and hands.
"We received a medico-legal case from a private hospital and visited the victims. An FIR was filed after taking their complaint,” an investigator said.
The police have booked Vishwa and Vishnu under BNS Section 109, which deals with attempt to murder.
