Belthangady: The Dharmasthala Police have detained three youngsters following a complaint lodged by a bus conductor accusing them of causing a disturbance by halting a government bus near Charmady.
The detained individuals have been identified as Mohammed Shabir (21), Mohammad Mahroof (22), and Mohammed Mubashir (23), all residents of Charmady village and currently studying at a college in Ujire.
According to reports, the incident took place on Saturday when the youngsters were traveling from Ujire to Charmady on a KSRTC bus. Allegedly, they were standing on the footboard of the bus, prompting the conductor, Shivakumar, to request them to either board the bus or find an alternative means of transportation. This request apparently led to an argument between the students and the conductor. Subsequently, a group of individuals stopped the bus near Charmady, claiming that the conductor had physically assaulted the students.
In response to the incident, the conductor filed a police complaint, accusing the students of obstructing him from performing his duties. Following an investigation into the matter, officers from the Dharmasthala Police apprehended the three youths on Sunday.
