Muvatupuzha: The police on Tuesday arrested Anson, the biker behind the accident that claimed the life of a college girl last week. He was brought to the police station from the hospital on Tuesday afternoon.
Anson’s speeding bike had mowed down R Namitha, a final-year BCom student when she was crossing the road in the heart of Muvattupuzha town on July 26.
Anson, who was injured in the accident, was undergoing treatment at the Kottayam Medical College Hospital. The police arrested him after he was discharged from the hospital after recovering from head and leg injuries.
Fearing an outlash by the students, the police did not bring him to the accident site during the day and collect evidence. A police team led by CI PM Baiju arrived at Nirmala College, Muvattupuzha to collect information from Principal Dr KV Thomas and eyewitnesses.
Another student, Anushree Raj, who was being treated at Kottayam’s Caritas Hospital after being injured in the accident, has also left the hospital.
