The attackers included a couple of women. In the attack, two junior police officers, one constable, and the driver of the police vehicle were injured severely.
Later a second police team reached there and rescued them. The four injured cops are currently under treatment at a private hospital in Siliguri. Till the time the report was filed, there was no information of any arrest in this connection.

India i.e. West Bengal is progressing too well….very happy ….
Bengal & Mumtaz Begum are progressing well. It augurs well for BJP & the nation.
Chief Justice of India & his hechmen are all supporting Mumtaz Begum. In next raid Judges should be asked to accompany then, so that they also get stabbed & feel the physical pain lying on municipality governed govt. hospital bed i.e. uncleaned hospital beds with barely any facilities and some of judges may also die in due course, then it is better for raising the conscious.
Judges to be sent to the action fields to gain experience – Siachen glacier, Ladakh, Terror Prone areas, drought prone areas, rain flooded villages to serve from there for few months every year by rotation, with NO air conditioner, only ceiling fan / exhaust fans.
