The bank manager stayed in an apartment in a residential complex in Mannagudde area in the city. According to him, Shilpa, who had vacated the complex a few weeks ago, called him on September 17 seeking his help to train her relative Trupti in a banking entrance examination. When he asked Shilpa to send Trupti to the bank, Shilpa said that she will send Trupti to his house during the lunch time.

Trupti came to the bank manager's house around 1 p.m. Ten minutes into the conversation, a group of six men trooped into his house and locked the door. They forced him to pose with Trupti and took photographs and recorded a video.

They demanded money from him stating that they would releasing the photographs and video if he did not comply with their demand. They forced him to sign on two cheque leaves and snatched Rs. 2,500 in cash from him. They went away with the documents of manager's motorcycle.

The perpetrators called him once again a few days later and demanded more money. The manager refused to give them money and said that he would report them to the police. The perpetrators then did not call him. The bank manager went to the Barke police station in the city and lodged a complaint.

A special team managed to arrest the six men and Trupti. Action is yet to be taken against Shilpa, who is in a private hospital following fracture in her leg.

Assistant Commissioner of Police Uday Nayak said that accused Srijit was involved in a case of chain snatching in Talapady, a mobile theft case in Ullal and a case of theft in Bunder. The other accused did not have any past record of involvement in any crime. The police have registered a case of dacoity against the accused, Mr. Nayak said.

In Mangalore this type of people you can find easily. Honey trapping is easy way to make money. This time bank Manager was lucky because he informed police . They can't encashment of cheque easily as manager can block his transaction. Young people don't want to work and spoiling life for nothing. In future they has run court several years for nothing, Need to spend money for Lawyer and Big Shame to family members.Parents should guide their children in a good way. Need to monitor their activities and friends circle. Sahavasa dosha Maga ketta

Bengaluru, Aug 7: Amid the rising number of COVID-19 cases in Karnataka, the state's health department issued fresh guidelines for the disposal of bodies of COVID patients.

"Although an increased risk of COVID infection from a dead body to health workers or family members who follow standard precautions while handling the body is unlikely, the lack of scientific data requires the utmost care to avoid the inadvertent spread of COVID-19 during these times," the statement from the health department's press release read, emphasising on the dignity of the dead and the religious and cultural tradition.

The 23-page press release elaborated on guidelines regarding testing, handling of dead bodies and other specificities in relation to the management of COVID-19 bodies.

"Testing should not be insisted in every case of death, but only when they have a recorded history of influenza-like symptoms. The body should be handed over to the family members/ relatives in a dignified manner immediately after swab collection and hospitals should provide handouts with a list of dos and don'ts in English and Kannada laying down relevant information," the statement said.

It added, "At the mortuary, health care workers, mortuary staff and the family of the deceased body shall not come in direct contact with the dead body and must wear full personal protective equipment (PPE). If the family or relative are for any reason unable to cremate or bury the body, the local health authority shall arrange for the dignified last rites as per the religious traditions of the family."

Regarding autopsies (post mortem) on COVID-19 bodies, the state department said that they should be avoided, except in necessary circumstances.

The statement also gave detailed guidelines regarding the appropriate recording of COVID-19 deaths in line with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines.

Additionally, the health department made a statement about the admission procedure for COVID positive patients referred by other district administrations saying, "It is now mandatory for all the referrals from the BBMP admission and discharge of COVID positive patients to be done through the online COVID Hospital Bed Management System (CHBMS)."

The state's count of coronavirus cases was 1,51,449 in the past 24 hours.

So far, a total of 2,804 people have died due to COVID-19 in the state, while the average recovery rate in Karnataka is 49.3 per cent.

Bengaluru, Mar 11: Did Congress party’s Man Friday, DK Shivakumar, not rise up to the occasion and save the situation for the party, whose rebel MLAs were flown into Bengaluru to unsettle the Kamal Nath-led government in Madhya Pradesh? Shivakumar told The New Indian Express on Tuesday, “So far, I have not got any clear direction on what has to be done. But I am in touch with the central leaders. The party does not want to antagonise them... They are our own MLAs.”

He said that the Tenth Schedule, which makes defections illegal, is very strong. “It is not so easy for them once they are expelled. There are courts and then they have to get re-elected. It is not easy to get minister’s post after getting re-elected,” he added.

When pointed out that rebels from the Congress and JD(S) who joined the BJP have got re-elected and become ministers, he said, “There are other issues here.”

Asked about Digvijay Singh, who is at the centre of the controversy in MP and who was AICC general secretary in-charge of Karnataka, not being able to prevent the rebellion in his home state, Shivakumar said, “I do not want to comment on any of our national leaders.”But he was confident that the Congress government would be saved in MP. “I am aware of the developments and keeping track of them,” he said.

Congress leaders seemed wiser after the event.

One of them, who wished not to be identified, said the party clearly did not see the writing on the wall. “Jyotiraditya Scindia supported the BJP at the Centre when it scrapped Article 370. Later too he was not in line with the Congress position on several issues. But during the recent Delhi violence, he criticised the BJP, sending confusing signals,” he added.
