Arvind Yadav and his friends allegedly beat up the constable, identified as Vamsi, near Golla Khidki here last night when he "objected" to their car being not parked by roadside and to celebrating Holi by setting up a bonfire in middle of road, they said.
The constable later lodged a complaint after which the Hussaini Alam police booked Arvind and others under sections 332 (voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty) and 506 (punishment for criminal intimidation) of the IPC.
