Mangaluru, Oct 6: The BJP has demanded the resignation of Food and Civil Supplies Minister U T Khader following the murder of a youth by unidentified miscreants in latter’s constituency.

Muhammad Zubair, 45, and his friend Illiyas, 62, were attacked with weapons by a group of four persons near a place of worship in Mukkacherry. BJP leaders claim that Zubair was an active BJP worker.

Footage from CCTV cameras showed assailants scaling the compound wall and attacking Zubair and Illiyas, who were near their motorcycles outside the place.

Zubair died on the spot, while Illiyas was admitted to a private hospital with injury on his hand.

The BJP on Thursday held a demonstration in front of Ullal Police Station alleging that the attackers were peddlers of cannabis and attacked Zubair and Iliyas as they provided information about them to police. The police, however, have ruled out this premise.

BJP spokespersons G Madhusudhan and Anwar Manippady alleged that Zubair was killed by the associates of a Youth Congress worker named Ilyas who according to them an aide of Khader.

“Footage from a mosque shows the murder. Passersby can be heard saying Ilyas’s aides are involved in the killing,” Manipadi said.

U T Khader has strongly condemned the murder and urged the police to nab the culprits immediately. He urged the people not to use the murder for political gains.

Comments

Mr.Mann Paady first concentrate on compulsory 5times prayer practise and Dheen later on Dhuniya. If you much closer with Dheen automatically you will start to talk about truth and always you will get full respect. Esle you have to stick with munafik groups.

Suggest to think about Aakhira hope you able to understand about the rest all points.

Why UTK have to resign???!!!!

He did wrong by joining and working in BJP. so he got outcome. UT Khader not responsible for this

If your worker attacked by someone else, that is only because of he is working in BJP. You are responsible. Not UTK.

After laying off hundreds of staff, NMC Health set to sell trading unit to different parties

Abu Dhabi-based NMC Healthcare has reportedly received bids to sell its distribution unit and will soon be selling it to different parties.

The development comes over three months after NMC Healthcare’s founder and then-chairman B R Shetty stepped down amid allegations of massive fraud.

The company, which recently laid off hundreds of workers, is offloading stake in the subsidiary as it is considered non-core and requires substantially high working capital to run the operations. In addition, this stake sale will help the company pay off some of its debt

"There are parties who have strong interest in the distribution business. NMC will be offloading the unit soon and that also to different parties," a source said.

"The company is in the process of exploring options for NMC Trading, the group's distribution business, which it has determined to be non-core and requiring substantial levels of working capital. The process should not materially adversely impact distributors' activities, nor NMC Trading's customers," an NMC Healthcare spokeswoman said.

The UK-court has appointed Alvarez & Marsal as administrator to oversee the operations of the debt-ridden hospital operator. The healthcare firm has been caught in a whirlpool of $6.6 billion debt while its senior former high management team is under investigation for financial irregularities.

The UAE Central Bank has direct local banks to freeze all bank accounts of NMC founder BR Shetty and his family members as well as accounts of those companies where he has a stake. The Central Bank move is subsequent to a criminal complaint filed by Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, which has the largest exposure to NMC Healthcare, amounting Dh3 billion.

As the company faces financial difficulties, Reuters reported that NMC Health delayed May staff salaries and now expects to complete making payments by the first week of June.

The spokeswoman said: "The company has been in regular dialogue with its creditor constituencies through various creditor committees, including the direct bank lenders to its NMC Trading businesses."
