The accused confronted him, made objectionable remarks, and insisted that he produce various identity documents.
When Ansari repeatedly asserted that he was an Indian citizen, the accused allegedly assaulted him using his own work implements, hitting him on the head. He sustained injuries and began bleeding profusely.
A local woman intervened and rescued him from the attackers. The migrant worker did not initially lodge a complaint due to fear and returned home after the incident. The matter later came to the notice of the police through local leaders, following which an investigation was initiated.
Police have verified that the victim is an Indian citizen who had come to Mangaluru for work.
Based on the findings, a case has been registered under attempt to murder. All four accused have been identified and will be arrested soon.
Further investigation is under way, police said.
