When Prathap replied that he did not know about Navin Kumar or his caste, Navin allegedly took away Prathap's bike keys and forced him to apologise for his behaviour. Reportedly an argument broke out between the two, following which a few friends of Prathap intervened and pacified Navin Kumar. Based on the inputs from Prathap, the police arrested Navin Kumar (22), Nandakumar (26), and Ramesh (38) under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
