The accused have been identified as Raju Gaikwad and his son Shubham Gaikwad.

According to police, Rajesh Wakchaure along with his wife Suvarna and daughter Sanskruti were heading towards Koregaon Park in their car. Due to heavy traffic on Mundhwa-Koregaon Park Road, Wakchaure honked at Gaikwad to move ahead.

Angry about the issue, the Gaiwakd duo stepped outside of the car and abused Wakchaure. During the exchange of heated arguments, the situation quickly escalated, and the suspects reportedly attacked Rajesh by using a sharp weapon. His wife and daughter who stepped out of the car were also injured.

Following the assault, the accused also vandalised the car of the Wakchaure and threatened them.

A team of police rushed to the spot and arrested the accused and gained control over the situation.
