Clash between groups
After the recent clash between two fishermen groups of Koothenkuzhi, during which country-made bombs were liberally hurled, the police conducted a surprise check in the village and seized 292 improvised explosives devices.
Against this backdrop, a police team, led by Valliyoor DSP Balaji, entered the village around 5 p.m. on Monday.
“We’ve seized over 100 country bombs and four kg of raw materials used for making bombs,” Mr. Balaji said.
