INDORE: A man committed suicide after a scuffle with the manager at a cinema hall, Anup Talkies, after he was denied a ticket to Salman Khan-starrerPrem Ratan Dhan Payo on Thursday.
Enraged over the suicide, a group of people pelted stones at the cinema hall on Friday afternoon. Police reached on time to defuse the situation.
Dharmendra Kushwaha had gone to watch the movie at Anup Talkies and had a tiff with the manager over the buying of the tickets.
"The duo abused each other. The matter escalated when the manager came to our house along with some of his friends and thrashed Dharmendra brutally," said Rakesh Kushwaha, brother of the deceased.
This prompted Dharmendra to commit suicide by hanging himself from the ceiling of his residence using his mother's saree in Bajrang Nagar under Heera Nagar police station.
Dharmendra was found hanging by his mother who then called in the other family members and he was rushed to hospital where he was declared dead on arrival.
The police were informed and a case was registered against unidentified persons for abetment of suicide, said Heera Nagar police in charge Shashikant Chourasia.
On Friday, when the family members of the deceased were carrying his body for cremation, they allegedly protested by pelting stones at Astha and Anup talkies, adjacent to each other.
"We are probing the matter and based on the complaint lodged by the manager of the Anup talkies, a case has been registered against those who pelted stones," said Chourasia.
