Two persons from Karnataka, identified as Mohammed Rayan and Khaleel Pasha, were arrested on charges of assaulting lifeguards at Kozhikode beach. The police are on the lookout for the third accused, identified as Farhan.
The alleged incident took place near the open-air stage at the beach on June 3, when a group of visitors allegedly assaulted lifeguards who warned them against entering the sea beyond the designated safety limits.
According to the lifeguards, the visitors continued to venture into the sea despite repeated warnings about the potential danger. The lifeguards subsequently alerted a home guard stationed near the tourism spot.
The situation reportedly escalated into an altercation, during which members of the group allegedly attacked the lifeguards.
