Mumbai, Jul 14 (PTI) - A scuffle broke out between two groups of inmates at the Arthur Road Jail in Mumbai involving infamous gangster Suresh Pujari, according to authorities.

The altercation, which occurred on July 6, was ignited by a disagreement over spatial conduct in the prison barrack, prompting heated exchanges and subsequent physical confrontation. Fortunately, the disturbance resulted in no reported injuries.

Authorities swiftly intervened to restore order and have since filed a case against seven individuals, including Pujari, at the N M Joshi Marg police station.
