Bhatkal, May 22: The Uttara Kannada police have arrested thirteen persons for waylaying a truck and stealing over two dozen cows from it after attacking the legal transporters at Murdeshwara in Bhatkal taluk.

The arrested have been identified as Janardhan, Nagaraj Nayak, Venkatesh, Kumar, Rama, Nagaraj Nayyar, Venkatesh, Bhaskar, Mahesh, Manjunath, Annappa, Shabhareesh, and Girish. All the accused are said to be activists of a saffron group.

Police also have recovered 24 of the 28 cows that had been taken away from the truck by the accused.

The attack took place last Sunday when 28 cows were being transported in the truck from a milk dairy in Gujarat’s Gir, to another in Kerala’s Thrissur. There were two drivers and two cleaners in the truck.

Police sources said that when the truck was passing through Murdeshwar on the National Highway 66 at 8 p.m, a group of miscreants waylaid it and hurled stones. The group pulled out the four persons from the truck and assaulted them.

Though the drivers said that they had permission for transporting the cows, the group did not bother to check the documents. Some persons in the group also reportedly thrashed a couple of policemen who came to the spot. Later, the group members lowered the cows from the truck and started taking them away.

Vinayak Patil, Superintendent of Police of Uttara Kannada said that the accused had been booked for dacoity and assault. He said that more people are likely to be arrested in the case.

These terrorists are not cow rakshaks but cow thiefs and cow bhakshaks.  This is their normal duty to steal cows and either sell them or eat the meat.   They should be treated as terrorists and put in jail for ever.   Its unfortunate that police are soft to these terrorists especially in Uttara kannada dist.    These terrorists regularly steal cows by stopping the carriers.   These terrorists took away the cows in the presence of police and police did not take any action unless pressure came from higher authorities.   New state Govt should be bold on these terrorits and teach good lesson so that none else should try to steal live stock.   They are jobless people and being hired + lured by sangh parivar.   They usual steal cows from the open area and gow shala and blame others.

Mangaluru, Jul 26: Rubbishing reports about cancellation of institutional quarantine for international passengers in Mangaluru, local health authorities have clarified that 14 day isolation including first seven day institutional quarantine must for international passengers. 

For past couple of days rumours were doing rounds on social media that the government has done away with quarantine for international passengers. A few Mangaluru-based news portals also had published it as news without quoting any reliable sources. 

Meanwhile, district health officer in his clarification message said that neither Karnataka government nor Dakshina Kannada district administrant has revised the quarantine norms for international passengers. 

“Those who arrive from overseas must remain in isolation for 14 days. Out of this, seven days have to be spent in institutional quarantine (in hotel or lodge). During this period, the throat swab sample of the person will be sent for covid-19 testing. If the report is negative, then they will be sent to home quarantine for another seven days."

He said that concession in terms of number of days has only been given for people with other health conditions, children and the elderly. "For children below 10 years, pregnant women, elderly above the age of 60 years and other with other ailments, the throat swab will be collected on the second day of institutional quarantine. If the report turns negative, they will be sent to home quarantine for 14 days."
