Vijayapura, Dec 23: With the help of district police, the CID has managed to arrest four persons in connection with the brutal rape and murder of the minor girl belonging to a Dalit community.

CID’s investigating officer Ananda Kumar told presspersons on Friday that Sagar More, Srishail Muchakandi, Kailash Rathod, and the main accused, Deepak Mulasavalagi, had been arrested from various parts of the district and Maharashtra.

He said though the case was registered only against Deepak, the others had also been arrested since their names had also surfaced. Mr. Kumar said they were on the lookout for three more persons. The district police had visited various districts in Karnataka and Maharashtra to nab the culprits, he said.

Meanwhile local MLA Raju Algur has revealed that all the accused were associated with saffron (Hindutva) outfits. 

The official, though refused to comment on MLA’s statement, did not rule out the possibility of seeking the help of the cybercell to find out whether they had links with any organisation, through their Facebook accounts. Replying to a question, he said the police did not find drugs in the room where the girl was allegedly raped.

The incident which occurred on Tuesday triggered Statewide outrage.

The so called rescuers of sisters are raping and murdering girls from Dalit community.   We have no words to condemn this brutual act.  However, it is surprising that self called saviors of sisters and most patriots of nation are hiding in the caves as if they dont know anything.  Its really a shape.  They agitate only on false issues and try to create disturbance in public.  The murderers of this Dalit girl should be hanged in public and Govt should not bow to pressure from any political party.    Dalits and minorities should unite and strongly agitate on this brutual murder.    Its strange that peace loving Shoba who shouted on the issue of a college girl in Honnavar who injured herself is hiding now.   Is she sick and hospitalised?   Pity on her.
