Sources said that they had come in three vehicles and Nitesh Rane’s vehicle had moved ahead when the incident occurred. Occupants of the other two vehicles got into an angry argument over the entry fee with the booth staff and assaulted them. They were being charged Rs 250 per vehicle. The toolbooth staff members explained to them that this is the fee stipulated by the government.
Sources said that out of the six youth manning the booth, three were beaten badly and the booth was ransacked. From there, the two vehicles sped away after committing the offence.
Following a complaint lodged at the Pernem police station, the police tracked Nitesh Rane and others in Calangute and detained them.
The situation is tense at the Pernem police station as more than 100 supporters of Rane have come from across the border.
They are angry and are questioning why Nitesh Rane has been arrested when he was not at the scene of offense.
