The PFI goons kicked Shine, tied his hands with cello tape, beat him up incessantly, and also marked his back with the terrorist group’s name PFI. The assaulters then fled the spot.
Shine has reportedly said that he would go to Pangod military station and lodge a complaint. Meanwhile, Hindu activist and founder of Hindu Seva Kendra, Pratheesh Viswanath, has condemned the attack.
