36-year-old Mohammed Iqbal, a resident of Kavoor-Shantinagar here, is undergoing treatment at a private hospital in the city after the brutal assault of April 19.

According to Mr Iqbal, the cops are trying to falsely implicate him in a murder conspiracy case and forcing him to confess to a crime he did not commit.

“A month ago police had visited my house to question me in connection with a murder conspiracy case. It was a shock for me as I knew nothing about the case. I really do not know who hatched the murder conspiracy and who the target was,” he said.

“Police have already arrested two persons in connection with the case. When I came to know that they are trying to arrest two more persons including me, I decided to apply for an anticipatory bail,” he said.

He said that on April 19, he had gone to Kavoor police station to submit the copy of the anticipatory bail. “They confined me in the station from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the name of interrogation. Later they handed me over to the City Crime Branch sleuths, who brutally tortured me,” he said.

Mr Iqbal said that CCB inspector Valentine D'Souza, constables Sunil, Is'haq, Chanrahas and five others gave him unbearable physical torture, even though they were aware that he had secured a bail.

“They made me to stand semi-naked and then inhumanly thrashed and kicked me repeatedly. My hands, legs and private parts were severely injured. Now I can't even walk properly,” he said.

Madikeri, Jan 5: Frequent attacks by Tigers on their cattle in South Kodagu region has left the dairy farmers a worried lot and causing concern for their life.

Several farmers have been rearing cows to supplement their income when low prices of pepper and coffee affect their earnings. At least 13 cows have fallen prey to Tigers in the months of November and December last year.

The Forest Department provides a compensation of Rs 10,000 if a cattle is killed by a tiger or in the attack. The compensation amount is meagre when it comes to the loss incurred by the farmers.

Though the Forest Department has submitted a proposal to increase the compensation amount to the government, no action has been initiated in this regard.

Bengaluru, Aug 3: All those who met Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who has tested positive for Covid-19, in the last three-four days will have to be quarantined, Medical Education Minister Sudhakar K said on Monday.

He also said those who came in contact with Yediyurappa in a couple of programmes in the past week are being traced.

Sudhakar, a medical doctor himself, said Yediyurappa has "very mild cough and his chest is clear."

"I think eight to ten days," he told news agency when asked how long the Chief Minister would have to remain in hospital.

Sudhakar said he is also getting himself tested as a few of his office staff had tested positive.

"All those who met the Chief Minister in the last 3-4 days...ideally they should be quarantined till they receive their results/report. Those who came in contact with him in a couple of programmes will have to isolate themselves and subject themselves for testing," the Minister said.

On the Chief Minister meeting Governor Vajubhai Vala, along with Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai last Friday, Sudhakar said as a result "They also become primary contacts. Ideally, they should also be quarantined and tested."

Yediyurappa who was hospitalised on Sunday night after testing positive for Covid-19 was "doing well" and is "clinically stable", the hospital treating him said.

The 77-year old leader is being monitored by a team of doctors at the Manipal hospital here.

"He is doing well, is clinically stable and will be monitored closely by our team," the hospital said in a statement late last night.

"I have tested positive for coronavirus. Whilst I am fine, I am being hospitalised as a precaution on the recommendation of doctors. I request those who have come in contact with me recently to be observant and exercise self-quarantine," Yediyurappa had said in his tweet.

Yediyurappa was in home quarantine a couple of weeks ago, after some staff members in his home office were found infected with the virus. Subsequently, he tested negative for Covid-19.
