Leo said the defendant was beating up a tricycle driver and the complainant tried to stop him.
“The complainant got to the scene to make peace between the two parties, when the defendant transferred his aggression on the complainant for daring to stop him from beating up the tricyclist,’’ he said. (NAN)
