NEW DELHI:Activists of right-wing group Sri Ram Sene Thursday assaulted supporters of Anna Hazare outside the Patiala House courts complex, police said.

Team Anna supporters had gathered outside the complex to support advocate Prashant Bhushan who was roughed up Wednesday by a Ram Sene activist – Inder Verma, supported by Vishnu Gupta and Tejender Pal Singh Bagga of Bhagat Singh Sena.

As both groups shouted slogans outside Gate No.2 of the court, which remanded the three youths in judicial custody for a day, an argument broke out between them.

Two Hazare supporters – Mohd. Shoufi and Raj Kumar – were dragged and thrashed by the right-wing activists while one of them was repeatedly kicked in the face and the other was slapped and punched.(IANS)
