The arrested have been identified as:

1) Rahul alias Back Rahul (20), son of Rohan from Thokkottu. He is a plumber by profession.

2)Pavanraj (20), son of Mohandas, also from Thokkottu. He is a painter by profession.

3)Edwin Rahul D'Souza alias Pucche Rahul (18), son of Henry D'Souza, from Kotekar. He is a PU student.

4)Karthik (19), son of Raveendra, resident of Kotekar. He is a diploma student.

With the arrest of these four miscreants the number of persons nabbed in connection with the three stabbing incidents reported from Ullal earlier this week, reached five.

Two days ago, the police had arrested Shivaraj alias Shiva (19), a resident of Kumpala and an electrician by profession. He was arrested in connection with the attack on Ibrahim Hassan, who was targeted early on Monday morning, when he was on his way to fishing port in Mangaluru from Ullal.

Hours after attack on Ibrahim Hassan on Monday a gang of five miscreants had attacked Safwan (24), Saleem (22) and Nizam (22), who work with a catering contractor. Later on Tuesday another youth identified as Safwan (27), a resident of Patla, Kallapu, was allegedly attacked with weapons by about four miscreants when he was coming out of his house.

According to Mangaluru city police commissioner M Chandra Sekhar all five victims were innocents without having any criminal background. Raju Kotian, who was hacked to death by a few miscreants a few days ago, was also innocent, he said.

Justifying his decision to impose prohibitory orders under Section 144 under the limits of commissionerate for two days, the top cop said that such a measure was necessary to maintain law and order in the city.

He said that a few fringe groups were making preparations to stage protest in Mangaluru illegally and police will not allow them to execute their plans.

Bengaluru, July 15: The family members of a 67-year-old man, who had developed some symptoms of Covid-19, was in for a rude shock when a “reputed” private hospital in Bengaluru’s Whitefield quoted estimated bill of Rs 9.09 lakh for 10 days.

The elderly man was rushed to Columbia Asia Hospital even before receiving his covid-19 test report. But after a look at the estimated bill, the family chose not to admit him there.

The break-up of the estimated bill included Rs 1.40 lakh for ventilator, Rs 3 lakh for medicines, medical supplies and consumables, Rs 2 lakh for laboratory investigations, Rs 75,000 for room rent, Rs 75,000 towards professional fee, Rs 58,500 for nursing charges, Rs 35,000 for radiology investigations and physiotherapy, and Rs 25,000 for equipment and surgical items.

The hospital authorities reportedly told the family members that the actual bill could be higher in the event of complications, unanticipated extension of stay and comorbidities.

“He was tested on Sunday and we were waiting for the result. On Monday, he started gasping for breath. Columbia Asia Hospital told us they had an ICU bed and we rushed him to the emergency care. When they showed us the estimate, we were shocked,” said Abdul Bashir, a nephew of the patient.

“We then contacted Dr Taha Mateen of HBS Hospital through an NGO ‘Mercy Mission’. We got him admitted there for just Rs 25,000,” he said adding that Hospitals should not take advantage when emotions are running high.
