The injured have been identified as Madhava Poojary (36), Madhu (29), Anil (40), Shiva Ganiga (24), Chandra Kanth (20) and Janaki (50). All of them have been admitted to a nearby hospital.

Even though the injured claimed that the gang assaulted them with sword, knife and other lethal weapons no serious injuries were found on their body.

The exact reason for the assault and the identities of the assailants are not yet known. However the bizarre claims of the injured paved way for confusion among locals and police.

One of the injured claimed that they were assaulted by a Muslim group because local Hindus had objected the construction of a mosque in Janata Colony. Another injured said that the reason behind the attack was that a few local Hindus had created awareness against ganja.

A few other local residents suspect that the attack might be the continued part of a clash that took place last Saturday between a few Muslim youths and local resident Christine Mascarenhas over latter’s goat.

Jurisdictional Surathkal police has registered cases based on the claims of the injured and investigation is on.
