Dispute in buying cow, goonda team attacks house, woman sustains injuries

IDUKKI: A woman sustained injuries after a goonda team barged into the house and attacked her. She has been identified as Ancy, a native of Vellayamkudy. Her son were roughed up by the team. The incident happened last night at 8.30 pm.

It has been hinted that a dispute related to the purchase of a cow is behind the attack. There were almost twenty people in the team. They destroyed some house hold appliances and the jeep parked in front of the house. They also stole the woman’s chain.

Ancy’s husband Sabu had purchased a cow from Saji, a native of Vallakadavu, three months back, on the assurance that the animal gives 12 litres of milk daily. However, as the cow did not give the milk assured, Sabu asked Saji to return the money. The attack happened soon after this. When the goonda team reached the house, Sabu was not at home.
