Mandya, May 28: A gram panchayat president in Mandur taluk has been arrested for allegedly attempting to rape a Group D' employee in his office.
The incident, which occurred on Thursday evening and came to light on Friday, was recorded by the CCTV cameras installed in the office.
The accused has been identified as Chandrahas (33) of Basavalingana Doddi, president of Kestur Gram Panchayat.
The Karnataka State Commission for Women has registered a suo motu case of the incident.
Newsroom, May 2: The Delhi Police’s move to book Delhi Minorities Commission chairman Zafarul Islam Khan under sedition charges over his social media statement condemning Hindutva bigots has raised many eyebrows.
A pubic statement has been issued in solidarity with Zafarul Islam Khan by a group of NGOs and citizens which condemned the media trial targeting Khan.
The statement demanded legal action against those who are distorting Khan's Facebook post and spreading false propaganda against him.
Delhi Police Special Cell registered the FIR against Khan on the complaint of a Vasant Kunj resident. The complaint came to the Lodhi Colony office of the special cell, after the assistant commissioner of police (ACP) Safdarjung Enclave forwarded it.
The investigation has been handed over to special cell inspector Praveen Kumar.
According to the FIR, Khan has been booked under several sections of the Indian Penal Code -- 124 A (sedition) and 153 A (Promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, etc,).
Khan on April 28 had posted controversial comments on his Facebook page. "Mind you, bigots, Indian Muslims have opted until now not to complain to the Arab and Muslim world about your hate campaigns and lynchings and riots. The day they are pushed to do that, bigots will face an avalanche," Khan had written on Facebook.
However, the Delhi Minorities Commission's chief on Friday had apologised for his controversial remark and had said that he never tried to tarnish the image of India. He also removed the controversial post from the social media and issued a prolonged clarification.
Thank god... Our law and order works..... Unforturnately not all the time and most of the time work selectively
