Four constables, one officer, and a panch suffered severe burn injuries after the Choubey family threw boiling water at them in Bhayandar on Wednesday evening. Earlier, the family had hurled utensils at the police from their kitchen to intimidate them. Senior officials quickly sent reinforcements to the scene. Three members of the Choubey family—the couple and their 26-year-old son—were taken into custody for further investigation.
