In an earlier case, a koyta gang stormed a residential society in the Dattanagar area of Katraj. The attack was linked to a dispute over a tea bill. Aditya Ranjane, who runs a tea stall at Trimurti Chowk near Bharati Vidyapeeth, got into an argument over payment at 6 a.m. The situation escalated when Dayaram Sutar, a resident of Dattanagar, intervened to stop the fight. The men involved left the area but returned later, armed with koytas.

Security footage shows the gang entering Sutar’s society and searching for him. When they learned he was not home, they left. The video of the incident has since gone viral on social media.
