    Urva Police team does commendable job. this comment should work as miracle booster to them and Mangalore Police. Racial mindset of this kind undisciplined actors do not deserve any mercy. Let some NGO s and fanatics not take trouble to protect and bring them out of clutches of stngest sections applicable to such spoilt brats. Let Law take it's own course. The Muslim brotheren need not get agitated due to this degraded /dastardly behavior of a few weak minded. Let them act in the jail.

    Such uncultured people should be kicked out from India. Abusing, assaulting are the major traits of fascists who've been carrying out such Unlawful Activities disguised under the religion since 1925.
