After leaving the bar, Prajwal and his friends decided to go for dinner and stopped their bikes at Pipeline park in Kurubarahalli near Mahalakshmi Layout. They were smoking there around 1.30am when the four youths who had clashed with them at the bar arrived in a car. One of the youths got down and pulled out a machete even as the other three goaded him into attacking Prajwal and his friends.
The accused swung his machete at Prajwal's head, but the latter raised his arms to fob off the attack. Prajwal's left hand was severed at the wrist and the right thumb was also cut off. The gang fled the spot and Prajwal's friends rushed him to Victoria Hospital.
When Prajwal's mother Sudha came to know about the attack on her son in the morning, she rushed to the hospital and later to the crime scene. She then filed a complaint with Mahalakshmi Layout police, naming Harish and Ajith of Kurubarahalli as suspects.
Police have picked up Harish for investigation on Wednesday, and said they would arrest him and his associates soon. Prajwal's severed hand and thumb were missing from the scene of crime and police suspect stray dogs might have eaten them.
