The victim has been identified as Altaf, a local resident. He was attacked by a gang led by one Sandeep when the former was eating at a fast food restaurant.

A severely injured Altaf was immediately rushed to a hospital in Kasargod where he received preliminary treatment. He was later shifted to a hospital in Mangaluru for further treatment.

Kasargod police reached the spot and registered a case. The manhunt is on.

It could be recalled here that Muhammed Riyaz Moulavi, a madrasa teacher was stabbed to death by Sangh Parivar activists in March this year at a mosque in Old Choori.

3 held for murder attempt

In a separate case, the police have arrested three persons here on charge of attempting to murder a youth a week ago.

A police team led by Kasaragod Town Circle Inspector C.A. Abdul Rahim arrested Khaisal, 28, Habeeb, 22, residents of Anangoor here, and Thajuddin, 26, from nearby Majal, in connection with the murder attempt on Rajesh, alias Raju.

Around 9.45 p.m. on June 14, Rajesh was riding a scooter along with his friend, when the accused rammed the car they were travelling in into the scooter. Rajesh sustained multiple injuries in the incident and is being treated at a hospital in Mangaluru.

The attack was in apparent retaliation to the killing of Zainul Abid in the town in 2008. The police are on the lookout for Sulaiman Rifal, alias Chippy, 26, who allegedly masterminded the crime.

Bengaluru, May 27: Former Karnataka chief minister and JD-S leader HD Kumaraswamy on Wednesday said that the state government should withdraw the decision to name the Yelahanka bridge after Hindutva ideologue Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.

"The state government's decision to name the Yelahanka bridge after Savarkar is a disgrace to those who have struggled for the country's prosperity. This doesn't give a good name to the state government," Kumaraswamy tweeted.

"There are many great people who worked for the development of the country before and after independence. Their names could have been used for this bridge. Do other states name their bridges after our leaders? On behalf of the people of the state, I urge the state government to take a step back from this decision," he added.

The newly built Yelahanka bridge was named after Savarkar last year in a BBMP council meeting. Later it was sent to state government for approval. Tomorrow, the bridge is likely to be inaugurated for public use.
