On Saturday, a Congress MLA’s son had trashed a man in a pub who was later admitted to the hospital. Following this, the BJP workers had protested outside the police station.
Mohammad Nalapad, the son of Karnataka MLA NA Haris, surrendered before the police on Monday after being booked for thrashing a youth at a restaurant in Bengaluru.
An embarrassed Congress was forced to expel Nalapad on Sunday.
Nalapad, the Bangalore District Youth Congress General Secretary, was expelled from the party for six years hours after he and 10 of his supporters were booked for the Saturday night assault.

Bengaluru police commissioner Sunil Kumar had suspended Cubbon Park Circle Inspector Vijay Hadagali and also recommended the suspension of ACP Manjunath Thalwar for failing to make the arrest. According to sources, both were close to the MLA and had allegedly tried to hush up the matter. The case has now been transferred to the city crime branch.
The victim, identified as Dollars Colony resident Vidwath, was having dinner at a high-end restaurant in UB City when Mohammad Nalapad and his friends walked in at 11:30 pm. The group reportedly told Vidwath, who had a plaster on one of his legs, to “sit properly”.
After a heated exchange, Nalapad and his friends allegedly attacked Vidwath and beat him up. The victim was rushed to the nearby Mallya Hospital for treatment, but the group reportedly followed him there and allegedly beat him up again. Nalapad and his friends allegedly also tried to attack the victim’s brother.
