The confrontation reportedly occurred during a mediation session at the police station, where both parties had gathered to discuss their ongoing legal dispute. Hooda later claimed that he sustained injuries from the assault and accused Boora, along with her father and maternal uncle, of using abusive language and resorting to physical violence in front of the police. The couple got married in 2022.
“During the questioning, my wife and her father started using harsh language. They assaulted me physically in the presence of cops, and I received two injuries. Her maternal uncle Satyawan also accompanied them,” Hooda was quoted as saying.
