Mangaluru, Jul 13: A gang of three miscreants barged into a beef stall at Mastikatte area in Ullal on the outskirts of the city and attempted to murder a youth in the broad daylight on Wednesday.
A severely injured Mohammad Kamaaluddin, 25, son of Nasir, a resident of Alekal, was rushed to a private hospital in Thokkottu for treatment after the attack.
The eye-witnesses have identified the assailants as Arfan, Mitha Nisar and Jafar, the three notorious men, who had allegedly robbed the same beef staff nearly a month ago during Ramadan.
They attacked Kamaaluddin with knife, iron rod and soda bottles and fled the scene before anyone could catch them.
According to sources, the reason for today's murderous attack was that Kamaaluddin had lodged a police complaint against trio and their associates after they allegedly barged into the beef stall in Ramadan, attacked him and other staff before fleeing with Rs 1,200.
Based on the complaint of Kamaaluddin, the Ullal police had nabbed one of the gang members, identified as Mukthar, who is still in custody.
Following this the other gang members had started issuing threats to Kamaaluddin and asked him to withdraw the complaint against them. Arfan's father Jaldi Siddiq, who is said to be a drug peddler, had also threatened to eliminate Kamaaluddin if he failed to withdraw complaint.
Kamaaluddin had reportedly brought this issue to the notice of the local police, who asked him to be careful. However, on Wednesday the three among the accused again barged into the beef stall and attempted to murder him.
When the injured was admitted to the hospital, a few local residents saw Jaldi Siddiq there. He began to ran. However, locals chased for nearly one kilometre and caught him. He was then handed over to the police.
A case has been registered at Ullal police station in this regard and investigations are on.

Why all the goondas and drug peddlers at large in ullal ? police department must be very alert in this areas.
Running a beef stall is not a lesser crime than murder. they are murderers of kaamadhenu.
thank god that locals catch the attackers, and cleared the situation of communal violence.
