PRESS TRUST OF INDIA


DEC 16: A Security guard at the residence of former cricket all-rounder Manoj Prabhakar in South Delhi, was allegedly manhandled by a group of hooligans in the wee hours on Saturday.

According to the guard Kanshi Ram Sharma, seven persons approached him at 2:15 am and enquired about Prabhakar and "threatened to kill me and my boss."

Sharma said when he tried to blow his whistle, the miscreants beat him before fleeing.

Sharma has registered a complaint with the police.The police officials said "we are looking into thematter."

The attack comes nearly a month after a group of Shiv Sainiks pelted stones at a beauty clinic run by Prabhakar's wife in South Delhi protesting against the cricketer's alleged involvement in match-fixing.

When Police was asked whether the hooligans could be from Delhi Unit of Shiv Sena, they said "we are probing that angle also."
