Bhatkal: Two Sangh Parivar members were arrested by the police here recently, for assault and for making false claims that could cause communal clashes.
Naveen, son of Somayya Naik, and his friend, also named Naveen, son of Venkatesh Naik, were arrested by the police, said sources.
Naveen, son of Somayya Naik, had complained to the police that, on October 8, when he was walking from Mavinakatta to his house in Kumbarakeri of Murdeshwar, three men on bikes stopped him near Chittihakkalu Cross and attacked him. He also told the police that the attackers were of a different religion.
The police, who investigated the matter, have arrested Naveen, son of Venkatesh Naik, and produced him before the court, the sources added.
Following a fight between the duo over a personal matter, Naveen, son of Venkatesh Naik, had attacked his friend. Naveen, son of Somayya Naik, has even sustained injuries due to the assault.
Naveen, son of Somayya Naik, however, had not revealed to the police that the injuries were caused by his friend and that the fight was for a personal reason. Instead, he had complained that he was attacked by people of another religion.
Police sources have said that an investigation brought to light the fact that the latter claim was false. The investigating team also found it to be an attempt to give rise to communal clash, and the police have arrested both the friends.
