Payyavoor Panchayat President Saju Xavier and the locals took him in an ambulance sent by the police and brought him to Patamkavala, which is four kilometers away. Payayavur police who were waiting there took him to Kannur Govt. Transferred to Medical College.
Five armed Maoists reached Chitari Colony around 6 pm on Friday. Suresh, who was injured in his left leg and chest, was brought to Chapili Krishnan’s house in the colony.

After this, others returned after buying rice and food items from the family.
The family informed the panchayat president. He then informed the police, but as the Maoists were armed, the police stationed at Patankavala. Local residents said that Suresh was accompanied by two armed women and three men. Suresh was taken to the Medical College Hospital under the escort of a large contingent of police including the Thunderbolt Force. A strong police presence has been established.
