Guard Accused of Beating Visitor in Front of Wife and Child

A young man was allegedly assaulted by a security guard at Janeshwar Mishra Park in Lucknow on Wednesday after an argument reportedly broke out during ticket checking at Gate No. 2.

According to eyewitnesses, the man had visited the park with his wife and child after purchasing tickets. During the visit, an altercation allegedly erupted between the young man and a guard over ticket verification.

As the dispute escalated, the guard allegedly abused the man, dragged him to the ground by his collar, and assaulted him with his shoes. A video of the incident has now surfaced on social media and is rapidly going viral.

In the video, the man can be seen being dragged on the ground while his wife and child scream and cry nearby. Bystanders reportedly continued filming the incident, while no one intervened for a considerable time.

It has also been alleged that after the assault, the guards hurriedly sent the young man away in an e-rickshaw to prevent the situation from escalating further. The identity of the victim has not been disclosed so far.
