March 29, 2016

Bengaluru, Mar 29: A petty argument over watching the World T20 match between India and Australia on Sunday night snowballed into an ugly fight, leaving a man dead and two others injured. The incident occurred at SK?Garden in JC Nagar, northcentral Bengaluru.

KennedyAvinash, 23, a resident of SK?Garden, was watching the match along with friends, David and Kenneth, at a large screen put up at 4th Cross in the locality.

Around 10.30 pm as India were cruising to a famous win, John Kennedy, 24, a youth from the locality, took his dog for a walk. He came to the place where the match was being watched. The dog started barking. Avinash and his friends got annoyed and asked Kennedy to go away.

But he ignored them and stayed put, watching the match himself. The dog barked again, further irritating Avinash and his friends. They picked a fight with Kennedy and beat him up, forcing him to retreat.

Kennedy went home and told his mother and sister about what had happened. The women took him along and went to the spot. They scolded Avinash and his friends. But the men retaliated and thrashed Kennedy. His mother and sister also received some blows in the melee.

Kennedy got furious, picked a broken liquor bottle and pierced it into Avinash's abdomen. He also attacked David and Kenneth. Thereafter, he left the place along with his mother and sister.

Avinash collapsed and started bleeding. Local residents took all the three men to hospital. Avinash succumbed to his injuries while David and Kenneth are said to be out of danger. The jurisdictional JC Nagar rushed to the spot and arrested Kennedy from the terrace of a building where he was hiding.

Just after Avinash was attacked, his younger brother called up his mother and told her about the altercation. The parents rushed to the private hospital and thence to Bowring Hospital where Avinash was admitted. But he died before the parents could reach there.

Avinash was the eldest son of Shankar, a contract worker. He had dropped out of college and was jobless. Kennedy was working as a delivery body with a sales agency, the police aid.

Bengaluru, Jan 23: An alleged low-intensity blast on Wednesday late evening in Shanthinagar left three-time Congress MLA NA Harris and six others with burn injuries. The blast reported at around 8:30 pm during a cultural programme gripped the central parts of Bengaluru in a panic especially after the incident of police recovering a live bomb in Mangaluru airport. 

According to sources in Shanthinagar, MLA Harris was attending the birthday celebrations of MGR organized by the locals close to his residence in Shanthinagar. Following the blast, Harris and a few others who standing close to the MLA sustained burn injuries and rushed to the nearby Philomena Hospital immediately and police officials from both the Ashok Nagar and Vivek Nagar visited the spot. The police officials are yet to confirm whether it was a bomb blast or due to the bursting of loud and powerful crackers. 

Chethan Singh Rathore, DCP (Central) visited the hospital and the blast site. A team of forensic science lab experts have also been summoned to the spot to collect samples for ascertaining the nature of the blast. MLA Harris’s son Mohammed Nalapad who rushed to the hospital along with supporters told media persons that they are completely shocked by the incident. 

“He was sitting on a chair and suddenly something that was hurled at him exploded beneath the chair. He sustained injuries to his leg and brought to the hospital. He is being treated by a team of doctors and other injured supporters are also being attended to by the doctors,” Nalapad said. 

Expressing shock over the incident, he said, “My father has been an MLA for 12-years and nothing of this sort had happened before in the constituency. We have no rivals and my father never had any gunmen. We are all shocked and have complained to the jurisdictional police.” 

Meantime, Dr Shankar Prasad, Medical Director, St Philomena’s Hospital explained that Harris and others are currently being treated for minor injuries. “None of them have any open cut injuries and they are being examined further,” Dr Prasad told DH. 

According to Dr Prasad, Harris had a minor blood clot in his left leg which was possibly due to a hard object hitting him during the blast. “We have taken X-Ray and examining further. At the look of it, it seems like a very minor injury,” he added.

Bengaluru, Jan 13: RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat on Monday held a protest march at Ramnagar district’s 
Kapalabetta under the aegis of Hindu Jagran Vedike’s ‘Kanakapura Chalo’ campaign against the construction of the world’s largest Jesus statue there.

Hundreds of protesters of the Vedike staged a protest march in the city starting from the Kanakapura Ayyappaswamy temple.

“We are not here to disturb the peace. We have met each other at the wedding of Sriramulu’s daughter. So you know who I am, DK Shivakumar. How long will you continue with these lies? Is the intention behind the statue of Jesus to solidify your vote bank? Build the statue in America or England, we will not allow it here,” said the RSS leader as the keynote speaker at the rally.
