A 52-year-old man suffered multiple fractures after being attacked by a four-member gang for allegedly sending WhatsApp messages to a teenage girl at Thiruvallam here, police said on Sunday.
The four accused — identified as Manoj, Manu, Arjun and Ajith — were arrested from the Vithura area late Saturday night.
According to the police, Raheem, a resident of Azheekod near Nedumangad, knew the 17-year-old girl for about three years as they were associated with a cultural club in Thiruvananthapuram and occasionally chatted on WhatsApp.
