Bengaluru, Feb 19 (IBNS) :  More than 36 hours after Congress MLA N A Haris’ son Mohamman Nalapad allegedly  assaulted a youth at a Bengaluru restaurant, he surrendered before the police, media reports said.

Nalapad surrendered at the Cubbon Park police station in Bengaluru.

Meanwhile, Arun Babu, a friend of Nalapad, has filed a counter complaint against the victim, Vidwath, claiming that he had assaulted and abused them.

The Cubbon Park police station has registered an FIR against Vidwath.

Media reports quoted Vidwath's family sources as saying that  the police are behind this counter FIR to force the victim to compromise.

Vidwath was having dinner at a high-end restaurant in UB City when Mohammad Nalapad and his friends walked in and asked Vidwath, who had a plaster on one of his legs, to “sit properly”.

After a heated exchange, Nalapad and his friends allegedly brutally assaulted Vidwath. Even after he was rushed to a hospital, Nalpad and his friends allegedly followed him there and beat him up again.

Nalapad, the Bangalore District Youth Congress General Secretary, was expelled from the party for six years  after they were booked by police.
