Puttur, Jul 11: In an incident which happened at Medarabettu near Kadavinabagilu, Uppinangady on the morning of Tuesday July 11, a gang intercepted a tempo carrying LPG cylinders and robbed money from the driver and assaulted him.

The victim has been identified as Abdurrahman alias Addu, a resident of Matha. He works as the driver of a LPG cylinder delivery van. As usual, he had set about his task today too at 5.30 am but was soon robbed by the gang.

    Every one knows who are the culprits behind the issue and there is no need to express it. Let police investigate the issue decently and arrest the real culprits and leaders behind them under goonda act. Govt should compensate the Driver suitably.
