Mysuru: A member of CMC ward no. 1 was detained by police when he was found gambling with others at a public place in Nanjangud town late on Monday night. Girish was playing cards with some others when police raided the spot. Police seized cards, cash and mobiles phones from them.
Despite the district administration declaring Nanjangud as ‘coronavirus red zone’ given its number of cases involving employees of a pharmaceutical firm and their primary contacts, some people are violating lockdown restrictions and are playing cards on streets. Police detained five such persons in Halladaakeri, seven on Bazaar Road, including the CMC member. They were released later after a warning.
