Bengaluru, Feb 22: Thanks to joint efforts by the Protector of Emigrants in Bengaluru and Indian Embassy in Qatar, a 26-year-old woman from Karnataka who had been kept in confinement in Qatar has been rescued and brought back to India.
Anupama (name changed) from Holenarasipura in Hassan district arrived in Bengaluru on Thursday night. She was allegedly locked up in a house for 14 days, restrained from using a mobile and wasn't fed. There were three other women with her. On the midnight of February 12, they broke the window panes and fled before contacting local police.
Anupama, a diploma graduate in computer science, was jobless and her friend working in Kuwait suggested she try for a job abroad. She contacted an agency based in Chikkamagaluru which offered her a nanny's job in Qatar. After document verification, the agency demanded she pay Rs 2 lakh but she said she didn't have that kind of money.
The agency sent Anupama on a visitor visa but told her if questioned by immigration officials, she must claim she was visiting her sister. They also gave her a return ticket.
As Anupama was travelling abroad for the first time, she said she was ignorant about several things.
On January 12, Anupama left Bengaluru. But as she reached Qatar, all her documents, including passport, were confiscated by the agency. Her return ticket was cancelled and she was sent to a house to work as babysitter-cum-cook for Rs 30,000. She lived with four other maids in the same house, where they were made to work for 16-18 hours a day.
"I used to wake up around 5.30am every day and had to prepare breakfast for the employers by 6.30am. My work would end around 11pm every day. We never even got time to eat," Anupama told media on Friday. Four days into work, Anupama's nose started bleeding. However, the employers cared little and insisted she continue to work. After 18 days, she requested her employers that she be relieved.
The agency sent her to a house where three women were already present and locked her up with them. "They used to give us a glass of raw rice, an onion, tomato and potato to cook for ourselves. While we got rice every day, we had to use the vegetables for three days. We were not supposed to use mobiles or go out. Two people were monitoring us," she recalled.
Anupama and the others decided to approach police but for that they needed to escape. Around 1.30am on February 12, the four women managed to break window panes and jumped out. They ran for more than a kilometre and managed to approach police, who summoned the agency and got the women to speak to their families.
Anupama called her brother-in-law, who approached the Protector of Emigrants office in Koramangala, Bengaluru. Shubham Singh, PoE in Bengaluru, said they took up the issue with the Indian Embassy in Qatar, which immediately got in touch with Qatar police. Anupama said, "We were kept in prison for a couple of days and were sent to the deportation centre later."
Meanwhile, the Indian embassy got the agency to return the women's documents. However, the agents did not pay their salaries. Two of the women were sent to Hyderabad and the third to Kerala. On Friday, Anupama met Singh at his office, where her statement was recorded. "We have started the process of initiating action against the agency in India," he said.
Udupi, Jan 24: A hilarious speech delivered by Congress leader CM Ibrahim during the recent biennial Paryaya festival in which the 85-year-old Pejawar mutt seer Sri Vishwesha Tirtha Swami ascended the Paryaya Peetha in Udupi has gone viral on social media, prompting the former’s fans and political rivals to engage in a debate.

C.M. Ibrahim..unfit to be a Muslim
Hey guys!
Don't you have anything else to do? Commenting and issuing Fatwa on each and every silly things?!!! CMI is a politician who will yell anything that yield him political mileage. And for preaching, this is not a platform for it either. May be you were not aware that the famous Lulu's Yousuf Ali donated to Viswa Hindu Parishad's International Conference in London recently.
Navoodu Billah, even we cant say Nabi Sws as god, we can only say fi Naari jahanam
No wonder if cm calls pejavara as god he has different gods everywhere ,he bow AP ustad too while AP followers say Allah Akbar to AP ..which is big shirk?
I think there is third 'walking god' which mr.ibarhim forgot to mention in his speech mr, kantapuram musliyar. Mr, ibrahim is really a lucky person for getting 'holy trinity'.!!!!
\CM\" Go adress the function but do not SALE your faith in cheap rate."
Fee nari jahannum.....
Ibrahim Lost his mind
All those who commented here failed to realize the greatest \Hikmah\" hidden behind CM Ibrahim's statement. He is just following the model of our greatest prophet Hazrat Ibrahim (a.s), who had stated that moon is god and son is god. His intention was to convince the Mushrik that they are not gods.
Similarly when those two walking gods leave this world, our CM ibrahim will go to Udupi and say: \"See all are dead. the one who is alive and will be alive forever is the only true god\"...
hahaha.. am kidding."
Dear all,
I am Not supporter of any politician........
He said that GOD, Please do Understand he did not call him \ALLAH\", When COW can become GOD Mother, why can't be Mr. Seer be a God, after all their are 33 crores of GODS.
Why should we give give importance , as called him a GOD, Let them add another GOD in the list, as RECOMMENDED BY Mr. IBRAHIM"
C. M. Ebrahim now in ATTH BITTH
Nahoodu Billhah.
Is he a real Muslim or Name sake Muslim.I really Wonder,Even Hindus do not believe pejavar sree as GOD.Nor pejavara Sree Quoted himself as a GOD.In one of his interview i heared C.M Ibrahim introduced H.D Devegavda as MANEDEVAARU.I really dont understand Why he is giving GOD'S Status to the Human being.
I know Muslims do not entertain or believe in such policies...
I do remember this CM Ibrahim's 20 year old speech in Bengaluru. He was addressing a muslim gathering. Here are the excerpts:
\Ee CM Ibrahim 100% Musalmaan. Jafar Sharif haage 50% Musalmaan alla naanu. Ee kade Maseedigu hogtare aa kade devastaanakkoo hogatare namma 'kaafar' sharif\".... Naanu eega thaane hajj maadi bandiddene\"....
And now what the hell he is saying?"
confession of hypocrisy.
First of all he does not know the main message of Islam which is oneness of God. (even if he knows it, still does not know the seriousness of God).
Ulema the scholars say 1 third of Quran(almost 200pages OR 10Parts of Quran) is only about oneness of God.
This is the key of Islam. Unless a person knows it(Oneness of God), he can not go forward to learn Islam.
Islam is based on this oneness. So, Islam does not allow for associating anything with the God. Even the Gods special qualities can also be not seen in others.
Even a negligible minute portion can not be equated to that one and only God, who controls the entire universe.
Even we can not say our mother, father also to the level of God.
It is the duty of every Muslim not to make such mistakes of equating anything with the God. This is called as Shirk associating someone with the God.
May Allah forgive our mistakes, help us to learn the fact and share with others.
What about Devegowda ? he made him party president, union minister. May Allah guide him to right path.
Why only two gods? Include Kalladka Bhat and make it three gods! Perfect Trinity
He is already Durga Poojary, it is no surprise that he says whoever God. Thee are some more big so called leaders smilar to Mr. Ibrahim's category who prays and also becoming President of Uroos etc. Even one of our Vice Chancellor also in his grade.
All these people are giving wrong signal to others about our religious.
It is welcome to go and speak at Swamys's presence but not in this level.
Marle..
La haula wala quvvata illa billah....
This fellow went to Kerala and declared AP Ustad as greatest auliya allah
Now went to Udupi and declared pejawar seer as god..
Now tell me who is great- auliya or god?
If Pejawar seer is god, who is his messenger? CM Ibrahim himself?
When U depend on Gori rituals it will take you to this height.. Graves are not for asking prayers. it is to reminds us muslims to recognise the blessing of ALLAH and our fate to end up in the graves. When we make the Graves our protector. The end result will take YOU to such steps which doesnt recognise the TRUE creator even after praying and making zikr hundreds of times...
If U ask, Ask ALLAH alone and trust him. Never depend on something which prophet muhammd pbuh never taught us. ALLAH is our protector - No need any intermedite to reach our creator. AL -hamdullillah.
The photo is very suitable for this report. CM Ibrahim raising his finger and reciting Kalima shahadah... \Ash-hadu Pejawar swami bla bla bla...\""
Yes Yes... Pejawar seer is god for saabis like CM Ibrahim.. Not for Hindus, for whom he is just a great swamji.. We are upper religion. our relgion's seers are their religion's gods... ahahaha
To Fathima, Dubai. Your statement is wrong. How you agree two god. Do you have sense. If you think like that, you done shirk. So make thouba and pray almighty Allah for your wrong statement.
He is an opportunists!
Baqoul shayer (about politicians )
Unka kiya hai ?
Wo to apne baap bhi badaltey hai !
This is the sign of Jaahil!
Ok Ok. Karnataka has two gods.. agree.. Now tell me Kerala has how many gods??? Only one?
If he belives there if God other than Allah , He is no more Muslim.
If he Belive There is God other thean Allah , He is no more
There no GOD but ALLAH.. and QURAN challenges the creation to VERIFY what is said in the QURAN to prove false... If U dare please TRY.
ALLAH says in QURAN : Say \ If the mankind and the jinns were together to produce the like of this QURAN, they could NOT produce the like thereof, even if they helped one another\" - QUran 17:88
And if YOU are in doubt concerning that which WE have sent down (The QURAN) to our slave (Muhammad pbuh) then produce a surah(chapter) of the like thereof and call your witnesses (supporters and helpers) besides ALLAH. if YOU are TRUTHFUL - Quran 2:23
Worship the CREATOR not his CREATION."
SSF's spokes person. lol
There is no GOD but ALLAH & Muhammd pbuh is last and final messenger of GOD who came after prophets like Jesus, moses, abraham, noah and Adam and several other messenger that ALLAH has sent to the people who worshiped the man made Gods and idols. Their only concern was people should worship the CREATOR who created us all. & not fall TRAP to the so called gods which is man made...
CM ibrahim is showing and strengthening u to the path of FALSEHOOD which he himself need to answer to the one who gave us Soul.
Dear HINDU brothers ... Look for QURAN , u will be cleared of who is GOD and Who are the agents of Devil which is also a creation of God.
