According to the Times of India, the arrested persons have been identified as 37-year-old Giri Lal, who is a native of Kollam, 27-year-old Vishnu, who is a native of Alappuzha and 55-year-old Kumar, who is a native of Coimbatore.

With the arrest of these three persons, a total of seven arrests have been made regarding the case and as per the TOI report, the Ernakulam City Police Commissioner S Surendran said that all the accused in the case have been arrested. The report also states that all the arrested are employees of Suresh Kallada, the private bus operator whose staff had allegedly assaulted the two men.

A probe has been launched by a team lead by Thrikkakara assistant commissioner, Stuart Keeler to find out whether there were more persons involved in the assault.

The alleged assault took place on a Bengaluru-bound Suresh Kallada bus. The two young men had questioned the bus driver as well as bus authorities, demanding alternative arrangements after their bus broke down near Haripad in Kerala. A small argument took place between the youth and the bus driver when the bus had broken down. But a few hours later, the driver along with other staff had allegedly physically assaulted both the young men inside the bus. A fellow passenger had recorded the video and shared on social media, after which it went viral.
