Mangaluru police have arrested 2 persons in the suspected moral policing case in the city in which a student of a private medical college was assaulted.
The accused have been identified as Deekshith alias Deekshi (32) and Loyd Pinto (32), both residents of Alape.
A complaint filed at the Urwa police station here said the gang followed two boys and four girls of the college who had been to Panambur beach together on Friday evening. The boys accompanying the girls were from different communities.
The students are pursuing a hospital management course at the college. After they left the beach, a gang of vigilantes followed the boys on motorcycles and allegedly assaulted the youth near Bejai.
The scooter used for the crime as well as mobile phones were seized from the arrested accused. The accused will soon be produced before the court, police said.
Meanwhile, the investigation into the incident continues.
