Yathish Baikampady, beach supervision committee chief, said, "They couldn't even speak properly, but were trying to throw their weight around."

The policemen wanted to travel by speed boat, but it was booked by a team of seven, including five women.

When the boat owners protested, the policemen pulled the passengers out, and allegedly brought out their lathis to cane those who had resisted them.

The policemen had come in two buses, and some escaped. Panambur police have arrested the others, and taken them to Wenlock Hospital for a blood test.

Panambur sub-inspector Pramod Kumar said most of those arrested were drunk, and the blood test would help in nailing them.
