The vehicle used by the accused in the crude bomb attack during a wedding party at Thotada in the district has been seized by the police. In the incident, Jishnu, 26, was killed when the bomb exploded. According to the police, on the day of the incident, the accused arrived at the spot in the vehicle and escaped in it. Meanwhile, P. Akshay, the first accused in the case, who allegedly threw the bomb, is expected to be produced in the Thalassery court. It is believed that the incident took place following a scuffle between two groups on the eve of the wedding at the groom’s house during a late-night concert.

The police have found crucial CCTV footage of the incident and also carried out evidence collection by taking the first accused to the firecrackers shop in Thazhe Chovva, where he allegedly bought the fireworks to prepare the crude bomb.
