The Railway Protection Force (RPF) has reportedly let off a couple of minor boys who were found to have thrown firecrackers at the Maveli Express at the Vellayil Railway Station in Kozhikode on August 13 night.
According to sources, they were nabbed from the railway station premises by personnel from the Vellayil Police Station, who were patrolling the area on August 14 night. Though there were three boys in the group, one of them managed to flee from the area. Firecrackers were recovered from the two others. The police claim that they were planning to hurl them at trains again. The boys were later handed over to the Railway Protection Force, who questioned them and let them off with their parents.
