Bengaluru, Jun 14: A 35-year-old man was arrested in connection with the blast that had occurred in front of the state BJP office at Malleswaram on April 17, 2013. Police said the accused had supplied explosive for the blast, after a plan was hatched to fix the explosive to a bike.

Central Crime Branch police, who are probing the case, nabbed Danial Prakash alias Prakashm in Tirunelveli village of Tamil Nadu. The police have so far arrested 17 accused in connection with the blast and Prakash is 18th accused.

Police officials said the arrest was made based on information given by Pervez Basha, who was arrested in Tamil Nadu earlier.

In a press release, officials state that Prakash is one of the prime accused and he was active in supplying explosive material that was brought to Bengaluru.

Cops among injured

A bomb explosion of low intensity near the headquarters of the Bharatiya Janata Party at Malleswaram on April 17, 2013 had injured 17 people, including 12 police personnel. The police personnel were in a Karnataka State Reserve Police van stationed on 24-hour election duty.

Two cars and two two-wheelers were gutted, while the police van was damaged in the explosion that shook the densely populated semi-residential area. The 10.20 a.m. blast coincided with the last day of the filing of nominations for the May 5 Assembly polls. The busy street on Malleswaram, which was in the thick of electoral activity, was covered with shattered glass, mostly from broken vehicle window panes.

RSS leader's SIM

Nearly a month after the blast, police had revealed that the SIM card used to trigger the blast belonged to an RSS leader from the Karnataka-Kerala border. The police, had refused to identify the RSS leader.

However, the police has exonerated the SIM-card owner, and ruled out the involvement of a purported right-wing terror group.

Chargsheeted

However, after a few months of investigation, a chargesheet was filed in October 2013 against 15 accused: Basheer (30), Kichan Buhari (38), Sait Azgar Ali (29), Rehamathulla (34), Valayil Hakeem (32), Syed Suleman (24), Suleman (31), Zulfikar Ali (24), Mohammed Salim (30), Panna Ismail (38), Bilal Malik (25), Fakruddin (38), Pravai Basha, Ali Khan Kutti, Jhone Asir, (35) and Syed Ali (29) are currently judicial custody in the Parappana Agrahara prison.

Bengaluru, May 27: Former Karnataka chief minister and JD-S leader HD Kumaraswamy on Wednesday said that the state government should withdraw the decision to name the Yelahanka bridge after Hindutva ideologue Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.

"The state government's decision to name the Yelahanka bridge after Savarkar is a disgrace to those who have struggled for the country's prosperity. This doesn't give a good name to the state government," Kumaraswamy tweeted.

"There are many great people who worked for the development of the country before and after independence. Their names could have been used for this bridge. Do other states name their bridges after our leaders? On behalf of the people of the state, I urge the state government to take a step back from this decision," he added.

The newly built Yelahanka bridge was named after Savarkar last year in a BBMP council meeting. Later it was sent to state government for approval. Tomorrow, the bridge is likely to be inaugurated for public use.

Chennai, July 27: Multi-lingual actress Vijayalakshmi, who attempted suicide yesterday, alleging harassment and bullying by followers of Naam Thamizhar party leader Seeman and Panankattu Padai’s Hari Nadar, is recuperating at a hospital in Chennai. 

Vijayalakshmi is known for films like Friends and Boss Engira Baskaran. She recently made headlines for speaking against Seeman and the torture she was allegedly facing from the actor-turned-politician and his party.

In the video which was uploaded on Sunday evening, Vijayalakshmi said, “This is my last video and I have been in tremendous stress in the last four months because of Seeman and his partymen. I tried my level best to survive all these days because of my mother and sister, but I have been humiliated in the media by Harinadar recently.”

She added, “I would like to tell fans who are watching the video just because I was born in Karnataka, Seeman has tortured me a lot. As a woman, I have put up with it to my highest capabilities. I won’t be able handle the pressure anymore. I am from the Pillai community, the same community LTTE leader Prabhakaran is part of. Prabhakaran is the only reason Seeman is who he is today, but now he has been harassing me on social media continuously. You slut shamed me to make me feel the pain and it is up to me to decide on what to do after facing such insults from you. I request my fans not to let Seeman get away from this case. He should never get anticipatory bail. My death should be a big eye-opener to everyone. I don’t want to be a slave to anybody.”
