Several youths carrying sharp weapons barged into a house in Sunet village here on Thursday night and attacked a family with sharp weapons and baseball bats. Three members of the family had suffered injuries in the attack. One of them succumbed to the injuries on Friday.

Complainant Kala Singh told the police that his younger son Birpal Singh was standing outside a medical store in the village on Thursday night where the youths came and started thrashing his son. When he got information, he went and brought his son home. About 20 minutes later, the miscreants again came and barged into the house and attacked all family members with swords and baseball bats.

He said in the attack, he suffered injuries on his head and mouth while his elder son Gurvinder Singh got deep injuries on his head and was undergoing treatment at the CMCH, where he succumbed today. While his younger son Birpal also suffered injuries on his head.

He said his sons had a fight with the youths about one-and-a-half years ago and a compromise was also reached in the matter. It seemed that they orchestrated the attack due to the old reason only.

Sarabha Nagar police station SHO Inspector Pawan Kumar said based on the statement of Kala Singh, a murder case was registered against the suspects, identified as Gagandeep Singh, Hardeep Singh, Shammi, Jagga, Kala Singh and some unidentified persons. Gagandeep, Hardeep, Shammi and Jagga were arrested by the police.
