Bengaluru: A young scientist narrowly escaped an attempted assault by a group of unidentified miscreants. The incident occurred on August 24, on the Ravutanahalli main road, situated on the outskirts of the city.

Singh was commuting in his Kwid car when the miscreants pounced on him. Eyewitnesses reported that the assailants attempted to break the car window in what seemed to be a coordinated effort to harm him.
