Milkha Singh, whose son Jeev Milkha is a top international golfer, and regularly plays at the Golf Club, termed the incident as unfortunate.
“It is an unfortunate incident. Both me and Mann tried to intervene and calm the things down. However, Sandhu acted in an unprovoked manner, unbecoming of someone from an Army background. His allegations against me are totally baseless. He tarnished a gentleman's game like golf,” Milkha said.
Mann told PTI that Sandhu “has had tendency to lose temper and has displayed violent behaviour in the past as well.He came to us at the 16th hole over moving ahead. His behaviour was highly provocative and violent”.
He said, “Sandhu probably thought if he stands as witnesses in the case, he will be in trouble. That's why he took his name and also blamed me (Mann) so that he can make a strong argument”.
Sector 26 Police station's SHO, Inspector Anokh Singh said further investigations into the case were under progress. “We have recorded the statements and further investigations were on,” he said.
