Udupi: An auto-rickshaw driver was reportedly attacked with a sword in a murder attempt near Shedigudde late at night on May 1. The incident occurred around 11:15 PM, and police have arrested two accused in connection with the case.
The arrested have been identified as Sandesh (31), a resident of Bommarabettu in Hiriyadka, and Sushanth (32), a resident of Bapuji Darga.
The victim, identified as Aboobacker (50) from Atradi, was driving his auto-rickshaw towards Madaga on hire. While he was passing near the Atradi Gas Petrol Bunk, two men on a bike began following him. They allegedly threatened Aboobacker and tried to force him to stop the rickshaw. Refusing to stop, he continued driving.
One of the bike riders was seen holding a sword. Realizing the danger, Aboobacker attempted to flee after stopping his auto near the residence of a Rose Bus employee in Shedigudde. The attackers targeted his head with the sword, but he managed to escape unhurt.
In a further act of vandalism, the accused reportedly smashed the front glass of the auto with a bottle. Aboobacker managed to flee by jumping over a nearby compound wall. A case has been registered at the Hiriyadka Police Station.
Acting immediately, the police arrested both accused and booked them under attempt to murder.
