Four people have been arrested after they allegedly assaulted a police constable who had told them to stop drinking on the premises of a housing society, a police officer said on Tuesday.

The police officer said, four men entered the Jankalyan Nagar society at Malwani in Malad on Monday night and started drinking alcohol. After a resident complained to the police control room, constable Kailash More, who was on patrol duty in the area, reached the spot and told the four to stop consuming liquor.
