Mangaluru city police commissioner M Chandra Sekhar said that Shivaraj alias Shiva (19), a resident of Kumpala and an electrician by profession, was arrested in connection with the attack on Ibrahim Hassan, who was targeted early on Monday morning, when he was on his way to fishing port in Mangaluru from Ullal.

The top cop of the city said that the police are trying to confirm whether he had involved in two subsequent attacks reported on the same day under the limits of Ullal police station.

Hours after attack on Ibrahim Hassan on Monday a gang of five miscreants had attacked Safwan (24), Saleem (22) and Nizam (22), who work with a catering contractor. Later on Tuesday another youth identified as Safwan (27), a resident of Patla, Kallapu, was allegedly attacked with weapons by about four miscreants when he was coming out of his house.
