Bengaluru's first female rowdy-sheeter Muniyamma is now Sri Rama Sene women’s unit chief

Bengaluru, Sept 23: Yashaswini Mahesh Gowda alias Muniyamma, the first female rowdy-sheeter of Bengaluru, has finally found a suitable platform to “legalize” her activities: She has been appointed as the president of the women’s wing of the Sri Rama Sene.

40-year-old Yashaswini faces different criminal charges, including attempt to murder. She is a rowdy-sheeter with Subramanyapura police in south Bengaluru. She had made headlines when she escaped from a private hospital in May 2016. After evading police for 112 days, Yashaswini finally surrendered.

Yashaswini runs her ‘business’ from home along with her husband and brothers. Her ‘clientele’ are mostly middle class and lower middle class women who easily fall prey to her alleged Shylockian ways of money lending.

The mother of two moved to Bengaluru a few years ago along with her history-sheeter husband Mahesh alias Dadiya Mahesha.

Yashwaswini and her husband stay in Subramanyapura. Her husband is a native of Kanakapura and has a history sheet against him in JP Nagar police station. The couple started their ‘business’ in alleged crimes in 2012. A case of chain snatching, robbery and extortion was filed on August 3, 2012 against Yashaswini. She also has two cases of chain snatching and 10 cases registered in JP Nagar against her. She then resorted to ‘meter-baddi’ business.

“Every single person who has borrowed money from her dreads not repaying it. The kind of language she uses and her way of dealing with recovery scares them,” said a police officer.

A video showing Sri Rama Sene chief Pramod Muthalik electing Yashaswini to the post at a ceremony at a private hotel went viral online, with many criticising him. Muthalik justified Yashaswini’s appointment, saying she is still an accused and not a convict.

“Yashaswini requested us to give her a chance to work for the organisation and we agreed. Don’t we see that many politicians and social activists, who face criminal charges, serving society in different capacities?” questioned Mutalik, who is also facing several criminal cases.

Yashaswini said she was happy about the new post. “In the past, I had got an inspector suspended by filing a complaint against him about dereliction of duty. He is responsible for my name being added in the history sheet. I will now challenge this legally and come out clean. Just because my name is on this list, should I refrain from social service,” she asked.

“I am sure of coming out clean from the court cases. I will protect our women and ensure Hindutva is upheld,” said Yashaswini, who according to police has so far assaulted at least two dozen (Hindu) women in in several areas, as her business is widespread.

Bengaluru, Feb 29: Gangster Ravi Poojary, who was arrested from Senegal earlier this week, and is being interrogated by the Cental Crime Branch (CCB) police, wants to evade the Mumbai police for any kind of inquiry. Claiming that there is a serious threat to his life, he is believed to have told his investigators that he should not be sent there. Poojary is being grilled by the CCB for his alleged involvement in numerous cases.

“He is aware that he will be given to the custody of Mumbai police as he had committed several crimes before fleeing India and also made hundreds of extortion calls to the well-heeled there. Hence, he has started requesting us not to send him to Mumbai. He claimed that he has many rivals there and they may go to any extent to get him killed,” a source said. Poojary was once an associate of dreaded underworld don Dawood Ibrahim.

Poojary has little option but to face Mumbai cops

Poojary had left Dawood’s gang and had joined Chhota Rajan, who split from D-Company and established his own network. There were also attempts by Dawood’s men to assassinate Rajan on a few occasions. During his days in Mumbai, Poojary was also reportedly facing threats from Dawood and other gangsters. “Since Poojary had jumped bail in the murder case of a gangster in Mumbai and f l e d the country, he has no option but to face trial again. Besides, he has made over a hundred extortion calls to businessmen and celebrities in Mumbai in the last two decades.

It’s inevitable for him to face inquiry by the Mumbai police,” an official said. “Now that he knows his options are limited, he is requesting us not to send him to Mumbai under any circumstance, claiming that he faces a serious threat to his life by Dawood’s aides and others. However, when we are done with questioning him, and if Mumbai police approach the court, it will decide whether to give him to their custody or not,” the official added. Poojary, who was brought to India on February 24, has been remanded to police custody till March 7. The police are likely to seek extension of his custody as he is facing close to 100 cases in Karnataka.

Cases filed in 4 states the gangster, originally from Malpe in Dakshina Kannada, has cases against him in Kerala, Maharashtra, and Gujarat. At least 46 cases are registered in Bengaluru alone.
