Witnesses at the Ambikapur Ganesh Visarjan reported that several of the young assailants appeared to be under the influence of alcohol or other substances when the dispute turned violent. While police have not yet confirmed the substance use, the claim adds another layer to the ongoing inquiry.
The alleged intoxication may have contributed to the rapid escalation from a verbal disagreement over the DJ’s placement to a full‑scale assault on the trainee DSP and vandalism of his car.
Investigators are reviewing CCTV footage and gathering medical reports to verify these statements as part of the broader case file.
