He stopped them and asked them to pay fine of Rs 100. K P Singh, the pillion rider, who was drunk, paid the fine and went away along with the rider, said the police.

Within minutes, Singh and a group of around 25 armymen returned and began an argument with Krishnamurthy for peanalising an armyman. In the melee, Singh slapped Krishnamurthy who sent a wireless message seeking assistance. Cops rushed to the spot, bundled up Singh in Hoysala vehicle and took him to the Commercial Street police station, said the police. Other armymen went back only to return with more men and assault Sudheendra. Upon receiving the information, senior police officers rushed to the spot and dispersed the armymen. They also informed the army higher-ups who rushed to the spot.

One of the armymen was a commissioned officer, but he did not stop others from assaulting a cop on duty. The army higher-ups have assured action from their end for attacking a public servant on duty. A case has been registered with Commercial Street police.
