Default Star news & HT : coverage on bikers causing nuisance in Delhi

Did anyone see star news last night?

they were apparently showing a group of so called bikers who were stuntin away to glory in some vip area. later on, the cops did come and lathicharged some of the bikers. while most of them ran away, the cops managed to get hold of a few.

the news channel was tryin to show how these bikers are a menace to society and i do agree that its due to bikers like these that the whole biking community gets a bad name

ALSO, Delhi edition of HT carried an article on the same thing:
Bike thugs run amok in city heart"-A group of rogue bikers zip around CP after midnight and make a nuisance of themselves.By the time police arrive,they manage to flee.

The same pattern played out in early hours of Monday-with one difference.45 bikers were arrested this time.The police said that there were around 150-200 bikers but others fled(Whoa! that's a big group).

The gang of motorcyclists had earlier harrased people at Bangla sahib Gurudwara.The police said that the bikers beat up a cameraman near the gurudwara and snatched his camera and mobile phone.When people come to rescue him they too were assaulted.

After this the bikers went to a Dhaba nearby where they had food but didn't paid and fled.The police caught with them,there was a scuffle and the motorcyclists threw stones.Eight policemen were injured.Five police cars were damaged.The arrested bikers were sent to judicial remand till August 5.

Police are looking for other accused.
