Violence continued to rock the city and its suburbs for the third consecutive day on Saturday. Sporadic incidents of violence were reported from the outskirts of the city, especially Kattakada and Parassala.

There was heavy deployment of police personnel in various parts of the city to ensure that there were no further retaliatory attacks in the aftermath of a series of clashes among CPI(M) and BJP activists since Thursday.

Focused on bringing to book those responsible for the attacks, the city police took three more persons, allegedly BJP activists, into custody in connection with the attack on the residence of CPI(M) State secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan’s son Bineesh Kodiyeri.

The Poojappura police, which apprehended the three persons were yet to divulge their identities.

Isolated incidents of violence were reported from other parts of the district, including Kattakada, despite prohibitory orders. Unidentified miscreants threw stones at the house of CPI(M) Kattakada town branch secretary Tomy Antony by around 11.30 p.m. on Friday. The CPI(M) alleged the incident to be the handiwork of BJP activist.

Separately, Inspector General (Thiruvananthapuram zone) Manoj Abraham announced a reward of Rs. 5,000 for Prathinjaya Kumar, the civil police officer attached to the Museum police, for his brave deed in attempting to apprehend those who were behind the attack on the BJP office.

Mangaluru, Mar 10: Tension prevailed in the city after an international flyer quarantined at the District Wenlock Hospital walked out of the facility.

The passenger, with a recent travel history to high-risk countries, refused to cooperate with health officials. The day-long drama ended when the district administration intervened and the flyer agreed to get himself re-admitted.

Deputy commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh said the passenger had fever and was sent to an isolation ward. “The passenger is cooperating with the treatment and samples have been collected for testing,” she said. The samples will be sent to a testing centre in Bengaluru.

Sources told  that rude behaviour by staff at Mangalore International Airport may have angered the passenger and he walked out of the quarantine facility.

She said if passengers show reluctance to be screened, they should first be counselled and allowed to get themselves admitted to a hospital of their choice with quarantine facility. If they still refuse to cooperate, they will have to be hospitalised forcefully, she added.
