Bantwal, Jun 21: In spite of the prolonged prohibitory orders and tightened security measures, violence has recurred in Bantwal taluk. This time miscreants have brutally murdered an activist of Social Democratic Party of India at Benjanapadavu village in broad daylight.

The victim has been identified as Mohammed Ashraf (33) a resident of Malluru Kalai and president of the SDPI’s Ammunje unit in Bantwal. He was an auto rickshaw driver by profession.

According to sources, the miscreants attacked Ashraf after he dropped a passenger who had hired his auto rickshaw from Kalai to Karavali Site at Benganapadavu near Kallige on Wednesday morning.murder11

The gang of armed miscreants who came on three motorbikes surrounded Ashraf all of a sudden when he had parked his three-wheeler in front of a house. A helpless Ashraf ran inside a house to save himself from the assailants.

However the miscreants barged into the house and dragged him out before brutally attacking him with lethal weapons. While fleeing, the miscreants have left a sword on the floor of the house.

Earlier in the day Ashraf had participated in SDPI’s flag hoisting ceremony as part of the foundation day of the party at Kalai. Later, he led a shramadan programme at Kalai and filled potholes on the road along with local residents.

The body was shifted to AJ Hospital in Mangaluru for post mortem before handing over to the family members. Dozens of SDPI activists thronged the hospital when the mortal remains were brought the hospital.

The fresh murder has triggered tension across Bantwal taluk. People in Kalladka and Melkar villages of taluk are observing a bandh in protest against the violence.

In the wake of murder, Dakshina Kannada district administration is likely to extend prohibitory orders in Bantwal taluk. As per earlier order, the Section 144 under CrPC ends tonight.

to those who dislike eye for an eye solution, what would you do if he was your blood relative? would your view be the same? wait for the investigation and wait for years and years for justice? People like you will always be around. Justice has to be done right now no matter what.

Bengaluru, Jul 20: Janata Dal (Secular) leader HD Kumaraswamy has urged the Karnataka government to stop putting warning signboards in front of COVID-19 patients' houses alleging that they are leading to "social discrimination and untouchability" in the present times.

"A local government warning signboards in front of the homes of COVID-19 infected people is leading to neo-social discrimination and untouchability in the new age. Even after infection, the individual and family should live with dignity. The government should immediately stop the practice of placing signboards," Kumaraswamy's first tweet read.

"Instead of placing them in front of their homes and creating untouchability, send health workers to their homes to create courage and awareness. They should be told not to leave the house. There is no such degrading practice left behind. I would like to ask Chief Minister Karnataka BS Yediyurappa to pay attention to this," he added.

The former chief minister further said that threatening to cancel the licenses of medical colleges for refusing treatment to patients would not solve the problem and urged the government to take them into confidence instead of rebuking them.

"Refusing treatment is the fault of any hospital. But for the same reason, threatening to cancel government medical college licenses is not right. There is no profit in this emergency of health. MCI also has the power to revoke the licenses of medical colleges. Remember not the government," he said.

"In this case, the government should look to the Medical Colleges to get their services in order to get them to trust them instead of getting angry. Let them focus on meeting their needs. I insist on a collective fight against the coronavirus through this," he further added.

The COVID-19 count in Karnataka reached 63,772 on Sunday, including 39,370 active cases and 23,065 cured and discharged patients.
