muthalikMangaluru, Jan 1: Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner AB Ibrahim has expressed deep concern over the reports on possibility of withdrawal of more than a dozen cases against Sri Rama Sene leader Pramod Muthalik.

In a letter addressed to Additional Chief Secretary of the Home Department Mr Ibrahim cautioned against the proposal to drop 13 cases, including 12 hate-speech cases against Muthalik.

“Such a move would send wrong signals and demoralise the police force,” the deputy commissioner said.

It’s worth mentioning here that the Home Ministry had written to the Director of Prosecution to get the opinion of prosecutors on the proposal to drop the 13 cases, including the infamous 2009 pub attack case. Muthalik himself had expressed surprise and shock over the development.

Mr. Ibrahim, in his letter dated December 28, 2015 advised the government against giving freedom to those who indulge in immoral policing and spread communal hatred.

Withdrawal of cases against Muthalik could motivate other fringe elements to take law into their own hands, the DC said.

Mangaluru, May 8: Migrant workers, stranded in Karnataka due to lockdown, staged a protest on Friday at the Central Railway Station here, demanding to be sent back to their respective native places.

The workers demanded the state government to take measures and send them back to their homes.

Maintaining social distancing and covering their faces with masks, the workers were holding placards which read -- "We want to go home Jharkhand, We want justice and we want to go home."

They appealed to the state government to arrange trains and buses to ferry them to their native places and threatened to walk home if denied transport.

Several protests have erupted in different parts of the country, such as Andhra Pradesh and Kerala, as stranded labourers took to the roads demanding to be sent back home.

The Ministry of Home Affairs on May 1 had issued an order to extend the ongoing lockdown by two more weeks from May 4 with some relaxations.
