Abdul Malik, 18, an ITI student who lives in Azhikode near Nedumangad is a complainant in this case.
The four defendants allegedly kidnapped Malik on Wednesday around 7 in the morning of the poultry shop where he worked part-time.

The defendant then left teenagers in the city and fled when they realized that Malik’s scream was attracting the attention of people on the road.
Police said that Kidnapping and Malik’s attack was the wrong case of identity.
