Nadeem, 26, bought the two-wheeler last month, and just a few days after the purchase, he brought it back for servicing after facing trouble with the scooter, the commissioner of police for Kalaburagi said.
"The (servicing) response was not good; he went multiple times. Yesterday (Tuesday), when he went, he carried petrol and set fire to six bikes," he said, as quoted by news agency Reuters. No one was injured in the incident, he also said.
However, there was no information available pertaining to the problems with the vehicle. There was no response from Ola Electric pertaining to the incident. The police officer, Sharanappa S.D, quantified the damage to the showroom to be worth over eight lakh rupees.
