Nihad Shan’s friend brought the woman to Perinthalmanna saying that she was being treated at Perinthalmanna Hospital with serious injuries. Then he lied and was taken to Coimbatore. But when the woman, who did not know Malayalam, began to see Tamil boards and was convinced that she was in Tamil Nadu, when she made a fuss, Junaid, the second accused, turned the vehicle around and told her to go back.
But when he reached Thenipalam at night, he was mistakenly told that the journey was difficult and took a room in a hotel in Kakancheri. There, the second accused Muhammad Junaid tried to molest the woman. Later it was realized that all this was a play by Nihad Shan with his friends.
The first accused, Nihad, switched off the old mobile phone and used around 12 new SIMs alternately, derailing the police investigation. After returning home, he hid in the house of a man living alone in Gothiswaram under the pretense of ministering to him. Nihad Shan was arrested from there. The suspect was arrested and produced in court and remanded. Junaid, the second accused, was remanded on Monday itself.
