The incident happened on October 31 last year but the police had been verifying facts before arresting Gurupreet Singh Anand, 40. The police said Gurupreet’s father Inderjeet Singh Anand runs a hotel and lives in Kamdhenu building at Lokhandwala in Andheri (W) along with Gurupreet’s family –  wife and two children. “Inderjeet said the incident took place on October 31 last year when he saw his son wearing only his underwear. He reprimanded his son. Gurupreet then started abusing his father,” said a police officer.

This started a heated argument between the two. Gurupreet picked up an iron rod and started beating his father. “Inderjeet was profusely bleeding,” said the officer.

“We arrested Gurupreet following the complaint registered by his father, alleging that he had assaulted him over a property dispute. Gurupreet was remanded in judicial custody,” said senior police inspector, Nasir Pathan of the Oshiwara police station.
