Udupi, Oct 14: A few travellers were jailed for boarding a train without tickets.

Junaid (24), Sujit (23), Vishnu (25), Unis (24) and Misaab (24) had boarded the Goa-bound Matsyaganda Express bearing the number 12620 from Kerala without tickets. When the train reached Udupi, a ticket examiner asked for their tickets and these passengers were indifferent and careless in their reply.

A case was registered by Railway Protection Force sub-inspector Sudheer Shetty and staff Zeena Pinto.

The Udupi JMFC court sentenced the accused to one month of imprisonment and a fine of Rs 1,000 each.

The court also ruled that the jail term will be extended by two months if the accused failed to pay the penalty amount.

    "these passengers were indifferent and careless in their reply" means that when TC asked for "special discounted penalty" the travellers would not have agreed to pay. There are hundreds of travellers who travel without tickets everyday, but this is all legal if you are ready to pay a small fee.

    Ticket less travel on a train illegal. But it becomes a crime when you misbehave with a ticket officer when he asks for your tickets.
