MRA Marg police on Tuesday arrested two more security guards in connection with a scuffle at the Tata Group's headquarters at Bombay House in Fort on November 5 in which three photojournalists were assaulted and sustained injuries.
Those arrested have been identified as Swapnil Dilip Chasksr, 22, and Pravin Ramesh Salunkhe, 29. With these fresh arrests, the number of persons arrested in the case have reached seven.
Earlier in the day, a rally was held outside Bombay House by journalists to protest against the brutal assault on the photo-journalists and demanding removal of all TOPSGRUP guards from all Tata establishments. Hundreds of scribes came out in solidarity with the injured photo-journalists while holding placards saying 'Tata' to TOPS guards.
"The Tata Group continues to be adamant in the issue, and it did not respond to our demand for removing Tops guards from all its establishments. We expect the Tatas to understand the seriousness of our demand immediately, or else we will continue to agitate in all possible ways in coming days. Based on our videos and press statements, the Press Council of India has taken suo moto cognizance of the case and asked one of their members Hormusji Cama to file a report by Wednesday," Mumbai Press Club said in a statement.
Meanwhile, Niraj Bijlani, Chief Executive Officer, TOPSGRUP while apologising to the media fraternity, said, "After conducting an internal investigation, we have arrived at the decision that the acts conducted by the four individuals were totally out of order. These four individuals have taken law into their hands for which the law enforcement authorities have already taken relevant action. Topsgrup strictly condemns all kinds of violence, and therefore we have decided to terminate the services of the four individuals with immediate effect."
