Ottapalam: A Tamil Nadu native was found lying unconscious in a pool of his own blood with a severely wounded neck in Ottapalam on Sunday.
The youth, who was travelling in the Egmore Express, was shifted to Thrissur Medical College Hospital after being administered first aid in Ottapalam Taluk Hospital.
He was found covered in blood near the lavatory on the train when it reached Ottapalam.
It is yet to be ascertained whether he cut himself or was attacked by someone else. As the wound on his neck is severe, the police have not recorded his preliminary statement.
