Ashraf, a social activist and SDPI’s Ammunje zonal unit president, was hacked to death by a gang of miscreants at Benjanapadavu in Bantwal taluk on Wednesday morning in broad daylight hours after the former took part in the flag hoisting ceremony as part of the foundation day of his party at Mallur Kalai village.

After conducting post-mortem at A J Hospital in Mangaluru, the body of Ashraf, was handed over to the family members in the evening. After ‘ghusl’, the mortal remains were kept for public viewing on the premises of the Adyar Kannur Juma Masjid in Mangaluru.

Traffic was disrupted for some time on highway at Adyar Kannur when thousands of people thronged the mosque to bid adieu to the murdered activist. Activists of Popular Front of India and SDPI too assisted the police to restore the smooth flow of traffic.

Later, the mortal remains were taken to Kalai through an ambulance and buried near the Juma Masjid. SDPI national general secretary Ilyas Mohammed Thumbey and PFI leader Yasir Hasan were present among others.

Five teams

Inspector-General of Police (Western Range) P. Harishekaran said that the police were working on some clues about the killers of Ashraf Kalai. “Five police teams have been formed to trace them. The police have recovered the machete used to murder Ashraf,” he said.

Mr. Harishekaran said that additional police force has been deployed to maintain peace in Dakshina Kannada. The police will book those carrying sharp weapons. While seeking cooperation from the people in maintaining peace in the region, he said that representatives from two communities should meet him.

Everything happens with the Will of ALLAH...
It is very saddening that the Culprit Killed a FASTING muslim.
May ALLAH reward Ashraf with the highest place in Jannah and give strength to his families to cope with the situation.

Muslims should be Patience (Remember Wahshi Story during the time of Prophet) at this time and not disrupt the harmony in the society like the IGNORANTS... The cheddis want us to become violent so that then they can arrest innocent with their 60% cheddi Lickers

We MUSLIMs should give DAWA to the IGNORANTS who create troubles in the society... Invite the BD, RSS members and VHP cadres and Give them DAWA. Cos the True message of ISLAM did not reach such people ... It is easy for the Cheddis to mind wash such people to commit attrocites against innocents.

Holy cow

Bengaluru, Mar 23: Karnataka government today decided to go for complete lockdown. This includes the closure of all non essential government offices, suspension of all public transport services and banning of mass prayers in places of worships across the state.

Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa had expressed the need for a complete lockdown like the Janta Curfew on Sunday. Going by this, there will be no government transport services at least till March 31 and as many as 19,000 government buses will be off the road.

The government also decided to cancel the famous Karaga festival. The CM said that all celebrations and functions will be called off along with mass prayers in mosques and churches.

The CM said that they have decided to procure 1,000 ventilators and 10 lakh face masks in addition to other health equipments.

Private hospitals have come forward to spare their doctors and nursing staff to attend to Covid-19 patients in government hospitals, the CM said.

Yediyurappa also said that he has directed the health department to paste notification on the houses of residents who are infected with coronavirus. This is being done after people with indelible seals and home quarantined are reported to be roaming freely. The notifications will help neighbours to keep an eye on them.

The CM said the government-run Indira Canteen will serve free food to the poor until the lockdown continues. He also said that action will be initiated against non essential shops that are open despite a directive to shut down.
