Kottayam: Erumeli woman Sub-Inspector (SI) Shanthi K Babu faced a violent attack while attempting to execute an arrest warrant. The attack was carried out by the accused, VG Sreedharan (72), a native of Erumeli, who is the prime suspect in a case involving the assault of a neighbouring woman.
The incident escalated when the police attempted to mediate in a dispute involving the suspect. Rather than cooperating with the authorities, the accused suddenly entered his residence and forcibly shut the door behind him. In response, the police made a forced entry, aiming to subdue him. During this encounter, VG Sreedharan subjected SI Shanthi K Babu to verbal abuse, physically assaulted her by violently gripping her hair, and struck her on the back before forcibly pushing her out from the premises.
As the situation escalated, the officers had to employ force to subdue the accused. The accused was eventually brought under control, and was taken into police custody.
