According to Ketaki, the riders appeared intoxicated and grew aggressive when her husband honked in an attempt to pass. "One of them got enraged, began hitting our car windows, and chased us for nearly 20 meters," she said in an Instagram post that has since gone viral.When the couple eventually stopped their car to address the situation, one of the men launched a physical attack on Amaldeo. The situation escalated further when four additional individuals arrived on the scene. Together, the group assaulted Amaldeo with sticks and stones. Two of the attackers held him down while the others beat him mercilessly. Ketaki, who tried to shield her husband, was also targeted. She was kicked in the stomach and struck in the face during the altercation.The attackers then proceeded to vandalise the couple's car, smashing windows and headlights with large stones. One of the stones, Ketaki said, also damaged the interior of the vehicle."We barely managed to escape. Amaldeo was bleeding heavily-his nose was fractured, and his ear was injured. A sonography later revealed swelling in my abdomen," she recounted. The couple reached out to Ketaki's brother, who rushed them to Chatushringi Police Station to file a complaint, and then to Sai Shree Hospital in Aundh, where Amaldeo was admitted to the ICU for further treatment.
