Mangaluru, Oct 6: In a fresh case of hooliganism by toll collectors, a woman suffered injuries when the staff of a toll booth at Brahmarakootlu, 20 km from Mangaluru, allegedly broke the glass of a car after the driver refused to pay toll.

The incident took place on Thursday afternoon, when complainant Sadakat was travelling to the city in his personal car. The toll staff stopped him and demanded that he pay the toll, as the car was having Mangaluru registration (KA-19), but the driver refused to pay up, as he is exempted from toll charges.

When he moved his vehicle, the staff tried to stop him, and one of the employees at the toll booth allegedly damaged the windshield. Broken glass from the windshield caused eye injuries to Tajiya, who was in the car. She was taken to a nearby private hospital for treatment.

A case has been registered at the Bantwal Town police station and investigations are on.

Udupi: In a significant operation, the Malpe police have arrested seven Bangladeshi nationals who were illegally residing in India using forged Aadhaar cards. Udupi Superintendent of Police, Dr. Arun K, stated that the arrests followed after an immigration incident involving one of the group's members.

Muhammed Manik, one of the arrested individuals, was caught attempting to travel to Dubai via Mangaluru International Airport with a fake passport. Alert immigration officers at the airport detained him and handed him over to the Bajpe police, who registered a case. Following this, the Udupi police, acting on the information provided by the Bajpe police and immigration authorities, conducted an investigation that led to the arrest of the seven individuals in Hoode village, Paduthonse, Udupi.

The arrested individuals have been identified as Hakeem Ali (24), Sujon S K alias Farooq (19), Ismail S K (30), Kareem S K (20), Salam S K (22), Rajikul S K (20), and Mohammed Sojib (20), all hailing from Bangladesh.

The group entered India without any valid documentation and managed to acquire fake Aadhaar cards, which they used to stay in the country illegally. According to police sources, a person named Kajol from Agartala assisted them in obtaining the fraudulent Aadhaar cards, while a Bangladeshi named Usman facilitated their illegal entry into India under the guise of employment. Both Kajol and Usman are currently at large.

The Malpe police have registered cases under several sections, including Sections 19(2), 318(4), 336(2), 336(3), 340(2), and 190 of the BNS, related to fraud and illegal entry. Interrogations are ongoing as the police seek further details in connection with the case.
