A man was detained for attacking a Manipuri man here on Sunday night, police said Monday.

Soizamuam, 39, and a cab driver, was attacked on Sunday night by two brothers who were his neighbours.

The victim, who lives with his wife on rent in Nathupur village on the Gurgaon-Mehrauli border, had some differences with brothers Ajit (29) and Sujit (27) — his neighbouring tenants. They had earlier fought over trivial issues.

On Sunday night, Soizamuam and Sujit had a scuffle in which the latter was injured. Both were allegedly drunk.

“When Ajit learnt about the fight, the brothers attacked Soizamuam in his house,” police officer Sanjay Kumar said.

Soizamuam suffered a head injury and was admitted to a private hospital with Sujit who was later discharged.

Police then detained Sujit who is also a taxi driver.

A case was registered against the duo for attacking Soizamuam in his house, threatening him with dire consequences and common intent.
