A few days after the police arrested five drug addicts in the Diva railway sabotage case, two other drug addicts have been arrested for the same reason — an iron beam was allegedly thrown by them on rail tracks. The 9 feet long iron beam was found on the railway track between Reay Road and Dockyard Road stations on Tuesday, and a major tragedy was averted as the alert motorman of a train, Anandkumar Upreti, saw it and stopped. But as the train was speeding, three coaches ran over it. The police arrested accused Mohar Ali Shukar Ali Sheikh (26) and Aziz Sheikh (48) within 12 hours of the beam being found.
