Noida: 33 private security guards and students were taken into police custody after a clash broke out between them at the state-run Gautam Buddha University in Greater Noida, officials said today.
The clash was triggered after security guards allegedly objected to some students smoking cigarettes at the Munshi Premchand Hostel inside the university campus, a police spokesperson told Press Trust of India.
“An argument broke out between the two sides around 10.30 pm on Sunday and blew into a clash after which 33 people were taken into custody by a police team which reached the spot. The police have received complaints from both sides and the matter is being probed,” the police spokesperson said.
Among those detained are private security guards and college students involved in the clash, the official said, adding the exact break-up of the figures was not available immediately.
The matter, which took place in the Ecotech 1 police station area, is being investigated by senior officials and more people could be taken into custody, the spokesperson said.
A video clip of the incident surfaced on social media, allegedly showing some stick-wielding persons smashing two-wheelers and cars parked outside the hostel whose inmate is heard abusing in the video.
