In a shocking incident, a traditional wedding procession in Greater Noyda’s Rampur Fatehpur turned violent late Friday when a mob of 30-40 men ambushed the guests with lathis, dandas, and sharp farsas. At least 8 to 10 participants lie critically injured, transforming the village into a hotspot of fear and unrest.
The attack stemmed from simmering old enmities between locals. As the baraat from Jagannpur village arrived, arguments ignited, leading to premeditated aggression. Assailants, reportedly prepared in advance, stormed the scene in cars and SUVs, beating revelers mercilessly.
Bhagdad ensued immediately, with baraatis scattering to save their lives. Women and kids huddled in terror while cars bore the brunt of the attackers’ rage. The wounded received urgent hospital treatment; a few remain in intensive care battling severe injuries.
Swift police response contained the situation. Dadri SHO arrived with a large contingent, dispersing the crowd and fortifying the village. An FIR is underway, with dedicated teams hunting the perpetrators. Doctors confirmed no arm-related critical wounds from weapons, yet the assault’s brutality is evident.
Investigations probe witness statements and CCTV footage as tensions simmer. Extra personnel patrol relentlessly, ensuring no repeat of the bloodbath. This brazen daytime attack highlights rising rural feuds threatening community harmony.
