According to police, the incident occurred around 1:50 AM at the end of last month, shortly after the Ernakulam-Pune express train left Thalassery station. Railway Protection Force officers arrested two young men for stopping a long-distance train in the area for a short time by flashing a red light to film videos for social media. Following a driver's alert, the Railway Protection Force traced the source of the light and detained the two young men from the area. Their arrest was recorded, and they were later released on bail, according to a railway official. The official added that the suspects are 12th-grade students, around 18 years old.
