Manjeshwar, October 23: Two localites of the town were among the 60 fortunate people who were rescued after an Iranian ship carrying 73 voyagers sank in the Persian Gulf last Thursday.

They have been identified as Avinash (25), a resident of Hosangady near here and Mohammed Haneef (37), a resident of Peringady near here.

13 people including seven Indian divers, who had stuck underwater, when the ill-fated ship sank about 20 km off the oil rich nation's southern Assaloyeh port, have lost their lives. The tragedy occurred around 5:30 pm IST on October 20, when the ship was advancing towards the port from an offshore oil rig.

The seven deceased Indians were staffers of Mumbai-based firm Adsun Offshore Diving Contractors Pvt Ltd.

Both Avinash and Haneef contacted their family members over phone after the tragedy to inform that they were safe.

Hanif has been working in Iran for over eight years, while Avinash was serving as a caterer on board the ship. The latter had visited his hometown three months ago to attend his sister's marriage.

Mangalore, Jun 3: One man was arrested by the Crime Branch of city police from Mangalore for allegedly having links with gangster Ravi Pujari, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Sandeep Patil said on Wednesday.

According to the police, the man identified as Ghulam has been sent to 10-day police custody.

"During the investigation of a case related to Ravi Pujari, it was found that one Ghulam is a close associate of Pujari and had helped him in extortion and other illegal activity. Ghulam was arrested from Mangalore. He was produced before a court and sent to 10-day police custody," Patil said.

The senior police officer said that further investigation is on in the matter.

Pujari, who was wanted in several cases including ones related to heinous crimes like murder and extortion, was brought to Bengaluru earlier this year from Senegal. He had reportedly gone underground two decades ago and had allegedly been carrying out illegal activities from abroad.
