Notorious Rowdy Arrested in Mangaluru After Evading Court

The Mangaluru Police Department arrested a well‑known rowdy on Tuesday after he repeatedly failed to appear before a court for a pending case.

The arrest followed a second court order issued last month that called for his presence to address charges of extortion, assault and illegal possession of firearms. Police say the suspect had been evading authorities for several months, attempting to avoid interrogation and trial.

The capture is expected to calm local communities that have long feared escalation of crime in the area. Law‑enforcement officials stressed that it demonstrates increased cooperation between state courts and police. Source: Google News – Udupi.
