Thousands of Delhi Police personnel laid siege outside the police headquarters for almost 11 hours 0n Tuesday and staged a virtual revolt, which was sparked by two attacks on their colleagues, one on Monday and the other on Saturday, following a dispute over parking vehicles between an on-duty policeman and a lawyer at the Tis Hazari Court complex here, which resulted in injuries to at least 20 security personnel and several lawyers.
