An activist each from Shiv Sena and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena and two students were arrested yesterday in connection with the attack on two colleges in suburban Andheri which had barred 206 students from appearing for exams due to poor attendance, police said.

A Sena activist, an MNS worker and two students barred by the college were nabbed yesterday and produced before a local court this morning which remanded them in judicial custody for four days, said S Deshmukh, senior inspector at Andheri police station.

At least 20 persons are still wanted in the case, he said adding, "a manhunt for the remaining people is on."

On Friday morning, men belonging to Shiv Sena and MNS had barged into Chinai and MVLU colleges run by Laxmi Charitable Trust and damaged some property demanding permission for the debarred students to give exam, police said.

On the same day, police had arrested three Sena men including MLA Abhijeet Adsul and 14 MNS workers and booked them under IPC sections 147 (Punishment for rioting), 148 (Rioting, armed with deadly weapon) and 448 (Punishment for house-trespass) and relevant sections of Bombay Police Act. All of them were granted bail by the court.
