Mangaluru, Jul 7: The trouble mongers have continued to target civilians in Dakshina Kannada district. On Friday evening, an engineering student was stabbed and his friend was attacked at Adyar Padavu on the outskirts of the city by unidentified miscreants.
Sajid (23), a student of third-year civil engineering in a city-based private college, and a native of Mallapuram in Kerala was rushed to a hospital after he was stabbed. His friend Naufal escaped with minor injuries.
The incident occurred when Sajid and Naufal were heading towards Bithupaade from Adyar Padavu. A group of three miscreants, who posed as innocent civilians, signalled the duo to stop the motorbike.
When the duo stopped their motorbike, the miscreants claimed that the fuel in latter’s two-wheeler had been exhausted and requested them to give a bit petrol.
Sajid and Naufal agreed to help the strangers. All of a sudden, the miscreants pounced upon the two and attacked them with a knife before fleeing the spot. Sajid sustained injuries on his hand and stomach.
The incident occurred within hours after Sangh Parivar activists staged a massive demonstration violating prohibitory orders at BC Road in protest against the recent attack on an RSS activist.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
