The Perumbavoor police on Friday arrested three persons on the charge of collecting funds in the name of a BJP district leader. The arrested are Suresh, 35, of Kottapady, Rajesh, 37, of Idukki, and Francis, 50, of Kanjoor. The accused had allegedly collected money from an industrialist running a plastic company at Chelamattom on July 14. They have committed similar offences in the past as well, said Perumbavoor Inspector C. Jayakumar.More Related News
