Tension prevailed outside the Attingal police station on Thursday when a group of lawyers clashed with the police following a dispute.
The faceoff followed a visit by advocate Mithun Madhusoodanan, a member of the Attingal Bar Association, to the police station to seek information regarding a case. However, he was allegedly abused by an officer who was on guard duty. Soon, the advocate was joined by the office-bearers of the bar association and they organised a protest in front of the police station.
