“On the evening of September 24, around 5:10 p.m., ASI Jha happened to be in Model Town market for official duties when he suddenly heard distressed voices. He noticed two individuals attempting to escape on a scooter. Understanding the gravity of the situation, he immediately sprinted toward the road and took decisive action by kicking the scooter.
