Mohammed Shaikh, who sustained head injuries, is recuperating at home. Subhash Tripath (57) was booked by Valiv police for “voluntarily causing hurt”. No arrest was made. Shaikh, a resident of Om Mangalam chawl, Boidapada, said he had been getting khichdi from an NGO nearby. Shaikh stays with wife Aasma and four minor children.
