A scuffle broke out between security personnel posted at Bombay House and photographers who were trying to click pictures of ousted Tata Sons Chairman Cyrus Mistry, ahead of the board meeting of Tata group firm Indian Hotels Company in Mumbai today. One person has been injured in the scuffle, a PTI report said.

As soon as Mistry, who is the Chairman of IHCL, arrived at the Tata group headquarters to chair a board meeting to consider quarterly financial performance of the company, photographers went beyond the cordoned off area to click his pictures. 

In a bid to control the situation, the security personnel roughed up the photographers, injuring one belonging to the Times of India and damaging his equipment, in the process, the report added.

Later on, Mumbai police intervened and brought the situation under control.

Four security guards and three photographers have been taken for a medical check up, the PTI report added.
