Mangaluru: On April 9, Yakoob (48) along with his family from Kerala crossed over illegally from the Kerala border. It is made out that he had used the sea/water route to cross over to Talapady. It is alleged that one person by name Shakir had aided his transit and provided all logistical support for him to land at Talapady and cross over to Addur.
Yakoob has violated all norms issued by the central and state governments to curtail the spread of the pandemic. He has blatantly put himself, his family members and the general public at risk, which attracts penal provisions under various sections of the law.
