In Bhatkal, an alleged attempt to lynch a young man travelling from Hyderabad triggered outrage and protests on Tuesday evening. Mujibur Rehman, a 36-year-old resident of Bhatkal Hanifabad, boarded a bus from Hyderabad to Mangalore. Near Gangavati in Karnataka, Mujib reportedly requested a fever tablet from the bus conductor due to feeling unwell. Upon revealing his identity as Mujeeb from Bhatkal, two passengers allegedly assaulted him, accusing him and threatening his life. The situation escalated when the conductor provided a tablet that worsened Mujeeb’s condition, leading to further attacks allegedly supported by the driver and conductor.
