Karkal, 12 Jun 2014: A mob thrashed a youngster when he was with a girl from Muslim community on Tuesday June 10.

 

Thirteen men barged into the girl’s house in Banglegudde, near here and assaulted twenty-nine-year-old Sudhir Rane from Bailoor in Kundapur taluk who was with her. They assaulted Sudhir with lethal objects, injuring him on the face and arm. They humiliated him by trimming his hair; video graphed their act, and shared the clip on Facebook and WhatsApp.

 

 

The police arrested 6 persons on Wednesday June 11 in this regard. They have been identified as Asif, Maqbool, Kishore, Altaf, Dawood and Ibrahim, all residents of Banglegudde here. The other seven are absconding.

 

The police charged the six arrested men under IPC section 307 for attempted murder and section 395 for dacoity, and registered a case at the Karkal rural police station.

 

The girl has been charged under the same sections because police suspect her involvement in the incident.

 

She is supposed to get married in September this year. She knew Rane for some time now, informed the sources.

 

The arrested were produced before the court here on Wednesday evening, police said.

 

The injured Rane, who is unemployed, is undergoing treatment at the KMC Hospital, Manipal.
