Udupi, Jul 2: In an incident which happened on Tuesday July 2 at Seethanadi near Agumbe, people who were travelling in a car intercepted a bus and launched murderous assault on the driver and conductor of the bus.
The conductor and driver who became victims of this attack were working in a private bus that moves between Shivamogga and Mangaluru. The attackers allegedly also forcibly took away Rs 20,000.
The ruffians claimed that the bus driver did not give their car space to overtake. They perhaps did not take into account the fact that the road on Agumbe ghat is not wide enough at most of the places to allow other vehicles to overtake.
Screengrabs from CCTV footage
The attackers were brutal and seemed to give vent to their anger rather than thinking rationally.
This scene was recorded in the CCTV camera installed inside the bus.
