Mangalore, July 20: A tense atmosphere prevailed in Kulai and surrounding areas on Friday evening after two youths were stabbed by a group of miscreants, in an apparent revenge for the brutal murder of Shivaraj, a young mechanic.

The victims have been identified Jamaluddin and his cousin Kalandar Shakeel and both aged between 25 and 30.

The condition of Jamaluddin said to be critical while Shakeel is recuperating from injuries. Both have been admitted to a private hospital in the city.

Source said that armed with knives, a gang of miscreants stormed into a shop belonging to Jamaludin at around 4:30 pm and stabbed two persons before fleeing the scene.

The double murder bid seems to be an act of revenge for Shivaraj, whose body was found lying at a railway track near Thokur earlier in the day.

The police who were doing rounds in the area during the incident rushed to the spot and shifted the injured to the hospital. However they could not nab the culprits.

The incidents came as a shock to the people of communally sensitive costal city, where Muslims are preparing for the holy month of Ramadan.
