The arrested are Ganesh from Ujire and Lingappa from Mudigere.
The duo have been accused of helping Raju Hosmath, leader of a Dalit organization, who has been booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, to escape.
A case had been registered against Raju Hosmath a few days back, relating to sexually harassing a girl belonging to his own community. After the case was filed, he went underground.
