One held, juvenile apprehended for forcing man to drink acid

Two persons have been arrested for allegedly forcing acid down the throat of a milkman's 18- year-old son in southeast Delhi's Sangam Vihar, the police said today.
The accused, Talib, had on July 24 night gone to the victim's father's shop to buy 'paneer', but was told that it was not available.
Enraged, Talib picked up a knife kept in the shop and tried to attack Yogesh.
The next day, when Yogesh was about to shut the shop, Talib came brandishing a pistol along with some other men, Brijesh said.
"They held Yogesh at gunpoint. They thrashed my son and made him consume acid," claimed the victim's father.

Talib was arrested last night from the area and later the juvenile was nabbed, the police added.
