Mangalore, Jul 15: A man pelted stones at the MCC inspector's sub office near service bus stand, damaging all the window pains, and physically assaulted MCC labourer Raju, in the wee hours on Monday night, July 14.
The accused has been identified as Dinesh alias Pabba, a resident of Monkeystand. He allegedly carried out the attack on his wife's office due to a family issue.
It is learnt that Dinesh’s wife Shashi works as a supervisor under the contract division in the MCC inspector's office under the health department.
Sources said that Dinesh, angered over certain family disputes and issues, pelted stones on all the windows of the office and damaged them.
When Raju, a contract labourer who stays in the office at night, tried to stop Dinesh and demanded an explanation for his act, he was assaulted by the accused, it is learnt.
The contractor who came to duty on Tuesday morning came to know about the attack from Raju, and brought it to the notice of higher officers.
A case has been registered against the accused in the Pandeshwar police station, based on a complaint by Bharath, the duty incharge inspector at the office.
