What is the main reason of covering the faces of guilty, which reveals police are favouring such murderers.  Police not only arresting, they should disclose their identity, such as which group they belongs and the intension of their killing, on whose behest they killed etc.

Police should post murderers picture with open faces as to know if they can be recognised by people for some other cases.  It will help Police also as these culprits might be doing some other unsocial activities like dealing in drugs / supplying prostitutes etc. as such people do this kind of unsocial activities for money.

Udupi, Dec 15: What was meant to be a post-pilgrimage gathering turned tragic in Padukere village of Brahmavar taluk, Udupi district, late Sunday night, when a clash among youths escalated into a fatal assault, leaving one man dead.

The victim has been identified as 30-year-old Santosh Mogaveera, a resident of Padukere.

According to preliminary information, the incident took place during a late-night drinking party involving a group of local youths who had recently returned after completing their pilgrimage to the Sabarimala shrine. An argument reportedly broke out among the group and soon escalated into a violent confrontation.
