Pankaj Tripathi's brother hospitalised after axe attack over land dispute in Bihar; accused arrested: Report
On Sunday, Vijayendranath Tiwari, the brother of actor Pankaj Tripathi, was allegedly assaulted with a sharp weapon in Bihar's Gopalganj district.
Preliminary investigations by local authorities indicate the attack stemmed from an ongoing land dispute and old enmity between Tiwari and his neighbour.
Tiwari sustained critical injuries and was initially treated at Gopalganj Sadar Hospital before being transferred to Patna Medical College and Hospital for advanced care.
Police arrested neighbour Rajesh Sah and recovered the alleged weapon, while senior officials including the Sub-Divisional Police Officer of Sadar-2 launched a formal investigation.
While Tripathi has earned widespread recognition for roles in films like "Stree" and "Mirzapur," his family continues to live a simple life in Belsand managing ancestral agricultural land.
