Anant Singh said, "Two people fired and one of my people got injured in the neck. Sonu and Monu are kidnappers and thieves. They loot people's fields. They are thieves and their father is a dacoit. He roams around with a pistol. If the police had been taking action, I would not have been worried. I demand that there should be an inquiry."
"But the police takes money and takes no action. Sonu and Monu are like the chiefs of the police. I want that people should be safe. I don't demand any security. It is the government's call whether I would go to jail or not. I stand with the people. So what if there is a case against me? I stand with the people. I don't care about the case," he said.
The incident reportedly happened when Anant Singh, a strongman in the region reached Nauranga village along with his men to settle some disputes brought to his notice by some locals.
