Panaji, March 25 (PTI) A 42-year-old tourist from Bengaluru was seriously injured after allegedly being attacked by nearly 20 employees of a Goa beach shack, police said on Wednesday.
Kaushat Pasha was allegedly assaulted by the group at Calangute beach over a petty quarrel on Tuesday evening, they said.
The tourist was admitted to the district government hospital in Mapusa for serious injuries to the skull, police said.
