“The incident has disturbed all of us. The police have arrested five of the accused, but all of them have already been released on bail,” he said.
President of the association, Dr. Manjunath said, “We never expected this kind of behaviour from the public. The attackers got bail within hours of the arrest. This conveys a wrong message that such attackers can get away easily. We want strict laws so that such attacks are avoided in future.”
