The Thiruvananthapuram Rural police have detained three youths who allegedly unleashed a wave of violence in a residential locality near Perumathura late on October 30. Two persons had sustained critical injuries after the gang purportedly hurled country bombs at two houses and vandalised several properties, sparking heightened tension in the area.
The Kadinamkulam police took into custody three persons, Akash, Abdul Rahman and Safeer, in connection with the incident. The suspects, who are residents of Attingal and Chirayinkeezhu, are habitual offenders who have been involved in many criminal cases in the region. Their arrests are yet to be recorded.
