Moradabad:
Police resorted to baton charge to disperse violent people in a theme park here on Tuesday. The violence allegedly started in a casino illegally operating in the Prem Wonderland Water Kingdom. Later, it spilled out and casino workers started beating randomly even those who had come to visit the park. Sajjad, who had come along with
his family, said he was beaten up by casino workers. "I was here with my son and
they started beating us without any reason. There was gambling going on. They
did not differentiate between people coming to visit the park and those coming
to gamble. They started beating everyone randomly," said Sajjad. The casino fight
began over some money payment issue. However, a casino co-owner said the casino
was closed before the violence started. "Casino was closed before the fight started,"
said Yasin, a casino co-owner. During the fight, many people were injured and
the park property was damaged.
