Jagran correspondent, Jamshedpur. The illegal game of Habba-Dabba (gambling) took the form of Kurukshetra on Thursday night near Hurlung Panchayat Bhawan under Birsanagar police station.
After a dispute over gambling, a drunk youth drove a tractor in filmy style and crushed three motorcycles parked there. Not only this, he terrorized the entire area by firing in the air, causing a stampede.
A weekly market is held on Thursdays in Hurlung area. Amidst this very crowd, the illegal game of Habba-Dabba was being conducted without any fear. As the evening approached, a gathering of gamblers started here.
According to eyewitnesses, a young man staggered to the gambling den in an inebriated state during the night. There he had a heated argument with the game organizers over some issue. At that time the matter somehow calmed down and the young man left from there, but his intentions were dangerous.
After some time, the young man returned with a tractor with a vengeance. Before people could understand anything, he rammed a tractor on three motorcycles parked in the market and crushed them badly. There was panic among the people to save their bike and life.
Whatever condition he was in, he started running here and there to save his life. Amidst this chaos, news of firing in the air by a youth has also come to light. The entire Hurlung echoed with the sound of the gunshot and within no time the entire field became empty.
As soon as information about the incident was received, Birsanagar police reached the spot, controlled the situation and inspected the incident site closely. Police are now trying to find out with which weapon the firing was done and who was the accused. However, when Birsanagar police station in-charge was contacted on this serious issue, he did not receive the call.
At present, the police is connecting the links of the case, but this incident of open gambling and firing in the Haat Bazaar has exposed the police patrolling and law and order situation of the area.
