Panaji/IBNS: Two persons have been arrested for allegedly stabbing a taxi driver and his father with a knife following an argument over a parking issue at Mapusa town, a police official said on Saturday.

According to SDPO Mapusa Jivba Dalvi, a complaint was lodged by Brijesh Shirodkar from Candolim that when he and his father Chandrakant Shirodkar had gone to Mapusa KTC bus stand on Friday, two people parked their scooter ahead of their car and blocked their way.

When the accused Sammer Pednekar and Suresh Kumbhar, residents of Khorlim Bardez, Goa, were questioned, they allegedly assaulted him (Brijesh Shirodkar) and his father with a knife causing multiple injuries and threatened them with dire consequences, the police official said.

Both Pedneekar and Kumbhar were arrested under sections 341, 504, 307, 506(ii) IPC R/w 34 IPC.
