The Kazhakuttam police on Monday arrested a 25-year-old man who was allegedly part of a gang of three men who attacked a youth at Menamkulam on September 19.
The accused has been identified as Shan from Valiyaveli.
According to the police, the three-member gang had attacked one Kevin from Valiyathoppu, who had arrived at his friend's house in Menamkulam for a house-warming ceremony.
The attack was allegedly for dissuading the three of them from creating a ruckus on the roadside, the police said.
