Kozhikode: A youngster sustained injuries after being hacked by a ganja seller in an alleged retaliation to a complaint filed with the Excise Department.
Ottakandathil Rohith (30), a native of Irupatham Mile near Koyilandy, sustained a deep wound on his leg from an attack using a sword. He is undergoing treatment at the Government Medical College Hospital in Kozhikode.
Rohith's friends have alleged that Vinod M C, a native of Payyoli, who is accused of selling ganja, was behind the attack that took place Thursday evening near the Nandi railway over-bridge. Rohith reportedly helped his friend Jagadanandan lodge a complaint against Vinod.
