Kasaragod, Jul 3: A court here awarded six months imprisonment and slapped a fine of Rs.2,000 each to 25 persons convicted in the 2007 violence at Manjathadukka locality near here.
The violence on January 7, 2007, occurred at Shiribagilu, near Manjadukka, after an unidentified group threw stones at vehicles in which people were returning after taking part in the ‘Virat Hindu Samajotsavam.’
Quite a few houses suffered damages in the stone-throwing and clashes that followed. Of the 29 accused, the court set free two persons, while hearing against two others had to be deferred in view of their absence.
