Kasaragod, Oct 9: The district police have managed to arrest a 39-year-old man in connection with throwing stones on a Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) bus at Perwad, near Kumbla, late on Friday, grievously injuring the driver.

On being alerted by the Special Branch, the police rounded up Abdul Salam, a resident of Mavinakatta, near Kumbla, who confessed to have committed the crime for ‘time-pass’, Kumbla police sub-inspector J.K. Jayashankar said.

The man, who was charged under the provisions of Prevention of Damage to Public Property (PDPP) Act and IPC Section 308 (culpable homicide), was being produced at a court here later on Sunday, he added.

Meanwhile, E. Sasidharan, the driver who hails from Kozhikode, was admitted to a private hospital in Mangaluru with complaints of heavy bleeding after his wrist veins got ruptured by the stone.

A passenger of the bus, plying on the Mangaluru-Kasaragod route, also sustained minor injuries. Mr. Sasidharan, who was admitted to the hospital in a critical condition owing to excessive bleeding, was said to be out of danger.

The police continue to remain clueless over the motive behind the attack on Friday night, a senior police official said.

The 70 columnists attending Tuesday's meeting write in different languages.

The meeting, in Chhattarpur in New Delhi, is a closed-door meeting and the proceedings are "strictly confidential", the sources said

No need to do any false circus.

Mangaluru, Aug 7: A woman suffered critical injuries after a speeding car knocked down her scooter and then ran over her at Kadri Kambla Junction in the city today.

The woman identified as Vanishri Bhat (22) a resident of Kedila from Puttur. 

A CCTV footage of the accident, which went viral on social media, shows the car hitting the scooter, pushing the woman on road for a couple of meters before climbing over her.

The car stopped when she was under it. A few people including a policeman lifted the car from the front and rescued the woman. 

She was immediately taken to a private hospital in Mangaluru City MLA U T Khader’s car which was passing through that way. 

She has suffered critical injuries on her head, ribs, hands and legs, sources said. She is reportedly responding to treatment. 

It may be recalled that in December last year a lorry-auto accident at the same spot claimed life of a 56-year-old teacher while the auto driver miraculously survived. Following the accident, speed breakers were installed at the junction.
