Complainant said that the accused used to blow pressure horns and drive recklessly in the locality, much to the annoyance of the neighbours.
Deterred against blowing the pressure horn and driving rashly, a Kohara resident deliberately rammed his car into his neighbours, leaving four of them injured, on Wednesday.

Her son, Harpreet Singh, had rebuked the accused for his actions.
