Enraged at being overtaken, five men allegedly chased after a car and thrashed its driver on the Gurugram-Faridabad Road, Gurugram police said on Saturday.
According to the Kadarpur village resident Sandeep Jangra, the alleged incident occurred around 11.52 pm on Thursday when he was returning from Sonepat.
When Mr Jangra crossed the Bandhwari toll plaza, some men in a Hyundai Aura overtook his car and suddenly stopped in front of it, he said in his police complaint.
Seeing the five men disembark, Mr Jangra said he got scared and drove towards Gwal Pahari village. He alleged that the men caught up with his car after its tyre burst, brought him out and thrashed him.
