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.

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.

Kochi, Mar 1:Adheringto a policy of "zero tolerance" towards clergy who sexually exploit minors, Pope Francis has expelled a Kerala priestconvicted of rape from all priestly duties and rights, according to church officials.

Syro-Malabar Church priest Robin Vadakkumchery is currently serving a jail term for impregnating a 16-year-old girl in Mananthavady diocese.

"Vadakkumchery has been dispensed from the exercise of priestly duties and rights. That means he has been reduced to the state of a layman", a Church official told PTI.

He was suspended from priestly duties soon after the news about his crime was reported in early 2017.

A POCSO court in Thalassery last year had sentenced Vadakkumchery to 20 years of Rigorous Imprisonment and slapped a fine of Rs three lakh on him.

The priest, 50, was the vicar of the local church in Kottiyur in Kannur district and manager at the school where the victim was studying.

He was arrested two years ago while trying to flee to Canada.

The Vatican's action came two years after Pope Francis made it clear that all bishops should adhere to a policy of "zero tolerance" for clergy who sexually exploit children.
