Meerut, Dec 15 (SocialNews.XYZ) Former cricketer Praveen Kumar has been accused of beating up his neighbour and manhandling a minor boy.
According to the neighbour, Deepak Sharma: "I was waiting for my son at the bus stop at 3 p.m. on Saturday. Kumar came in his car and started abusing the bus driver first and later, he abused me.
"He was in an inebriated state. He thrashed me and pushed my seven-year-old son. I have fractured my hand."
Superintendent of Police Akhilesh Narain said: "Both neighbours informed the police about the incident. We are investigating the matter based on their statements.
"Further action will be taken accordingly. The medical process is also done."
