Mangalore, Apr 24: Mangalore North Police have arrested three Bajarang Dal men for smearing cow dung on Karnataka Komu Souharda Vedike (KKSV) district president Suresh Bhat Bakrabail here on Tuesday.
Mr Shetty was caught by the public after he smeared Mr Bhat with dung during an internal meeting of KKSV at Hotel Woodlands on Tuesday.
R Hitendra, Mangalore city Police Commissioner, said the three were members of the Bajrang Dal.
“The motive is ideological and targeted Mr Bhat whose organisation had opposed the Bajrang Dal and Sangh Parivar,” he said.
At a press conference minutes before the attack, Mr. Bhat had accused rightwing organisations of being involved in the death of Kabeer who was shot dead by Anti-Naxal Force in Sringeri recently.
