Bengaluru, Sep 24: A newly married Muslim couple were picked up by a joint team of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and the Telangana Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) on suspicion of terror links in the city on Saturday.

marriedAccording to police sources, the joint team was tailing the suspect Javed Rafiq (30), who was with his wife, from a distance and on realising that he would be nabbed, he tried to escape.

Telangana Police constable Srinivas, who is part of the ATS, tried to stop him, but Rafiq attacked him with a sharp object.

Rafiq and the constable were immediately rushed to a local hospital. Rafiq’s wife Yasmin was taken aback by the sudden development and the NIA team detained her later.

The incident comes a day after the NIA picked up 14 men including six from Karnataka in a pre-dawn swoop for allegedly being sympathisers of ISIS.

“The incident took place at Doddanagamangala and a constable was injured in the attack. The suspect is wanted by the NIA in a particular case. The City police are yet to be informed about the raid by the NIA,” Bengaluru Police Commissioner N S?Megharik said on Saturday.

However, Megharik said he did not have details of the case in which Rafiq was wanted. As many as six NIA and ATS teams are in Bengaluru and more arrests cannot be ruled out, sources added. “The attack took place before the couple could enter the house,” said DCP (south-east) M B Boralingaiah.

Rafiq is from Delhi and moved to Bengaluru three years ago. He married Yasmin six-months ago and the couple were staying in the second floor of a four-storeyed building owned by one Ashraf on 4th main road, Vinayaka Nagar.

The City police were not sure whether Yasmin was also involved in terror activities. “We have no information and we have not been keeping a tab on her,” said a senior police officer.

Sources in the City police said the joint team arrived here on Saturday to detain Rafiq. The jurisdictional Parappana Agrahara police have decided to register a case against Ashraf and interrogate him.

Modi wave in dust bin now and BJP using puppet NIA to glorify Modi by these random arrest. Innocent Muslim youths are scapegoat. Amith Shah did same crime while in Gujarat and orgabnised fake encounters.

New Delhi, May 29: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has imposed a monetary penalty of Rs 1.2 crore on Karnataka Bank Limited for non-compliance of asset classification, divergence and provisioning norms.

"The penalty has been imposed in exercise of powers vested in RBI under the provisions of Section 47 A (1) (c) read with Section 46 (4) (i) of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949. 

This action is based on the deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers," the central bank said in a statement on Thursday.

According to the central bank, the statutory inspection of the bank with reference to its financial position as on March 31, 2017, and as on March 31, 2018, and the Risk Assessment Reports (RAR) pertaining thereto revealed, inter-alia, non-compliance with the directions issued by RBI.

Earlier, a notice was issued to the bank advising it to show cause as to why penalty should not be imposed on it for non-compliance with the directions.

After considering the bank's reply to the notice, oral submissions made in the personal hearing and examination of additional submissions, RBI concluded that the charges of non-compliance with RBI directions warranted imposition of monetary penalty, according to a release.

This action is based on the deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers.

Mangaluru/Udupi, Aug 2: The twin coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi witnessed sporadic movement of vehicles and relatively less commercial activities today in spite of the withdrawal of ‘Sunday lockdown’ by the state government. 

After the central government announced guidelines under Unlock 3.0, the Karnataka government has removed the complete lockdown concept on Sundays and done away with the night curfews too. So from today (August 2), there will be no lockdown on Sundays.

KSRTC operated its buses as usually. However, compared to other days, today the number of private and city buses on the roads in Dakshina Kannada was limited. 

In Udupi, city buses remained off the roads as the number of passengers was less. However, KSRTC and NARM buses were seen transporting passengers.

In containment zones ban on movement of people will continue till August 31 in Udupi. The Santhekatte market used to function on Saturdays, as there was Sunday lockdown on earlier Sundays. Now the market will be open on Sundays only.
