Students groups like Students Federation of India, Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, National Students Union of India, Campus Front of India, All college Student Union etc have staged separate demonstrations in last two days condemning the death and demanded high level probe into the case.

On the other hand, Democratic Youth Federation of India, Sri Ram Sena, Friends Ballalbagh Biruver Kudla etc also have demanded CID or CBI probe into the case. Sri Ram Sena has urged the government to immediately give Rs 25 lakh compensation to the kin of the girl.

Daughter of Lokesh and Baby couple from Yekkaru Devagudde near Kateel, the girl was staying in the Alva’s hostel for past one month. According to Moodbidri police, who brushed aside the murder allegation, she used a saree, said to be belonging to one of her roommates’ parents, to resort to the extreme step.

Meanwhile, an audio clip of phone call between Kavya and her family members on the eve of her death has gone viral on social media. Though it was said that she committed suicide under depression developed over securing very less marks in the exam, the audio clip indicates that she was very happy. The girl had also asked her parents to bring her lots of chocolates.

*ಶೋಬ ಕರಂದ್ಲಾಜೆ, ನಳೀನ್ ಕುಮಾರ್ ಕಟೀಲ್ ಕಾಣೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ*

ಕಾವ್ಯ ಎಂಬ ಅಮಾಯಕ ಹೆಣ್ಣು ಮಗಳು ಜೀವ ತೆತ್ತಿದ್ದಾಳೆ. ಆತ್ಮಹತ್ಯೆ ಯೋ ? ಕೊಲೆಯೋ ? ಏನೇ ಆಗಿರಲಿ. 
ಹಿಂದುವಿನ ಶವ ಬಿದ್ದರೆ, ಅದನ್ನು ಮುಸ್ಲಿಮರ ತಲೆಗೆ ಕಟ್ಟಿ ಜಿಲ್ಲೆ ಗೆ, ರಾಜ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ಬೆಂಕಿ ಹಾಕಲು ಹೊರಟ ಬಿಜೆಪಿಯ ನಾಯಕರು ಕಾವ್ಯಳ ಮನೆಗೆ ಸೌಜನ್ಯದ ಭೇಟಿ ಮಾಡಿ ನ್ಯಾಯ ಸಿಗಬೇಕೆಂದು, ಕೇಂದ್ರ ದ ಎನ್ ಐ ತನಿಖೆ ನಡೆಸ ಬೇಕೆಂದು ಆಗ್ರಹಿಸಲಿಲ್ಲ.

*ಕಾವ್ಯ ಹಿಂದು ವಲ್ಲವೇ  ?*

*ಕಾವ್ಯಳ ಸಾವು ಹಿಂದು ಧರ್ಮಕ್ಕೆ ಆದ ಅನ್ಯಾಯ ವಲ್ಲವೇ ?*

*ಬಿ ಸಿ ರೋಡ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ಹತ್ಯೆ ಗೀಡಾದ ಶರತ್ ಗಿರುವ ಪ್ರತಿಭಟನೆ, ಬಂದ್ ,ಹೋರಾಟ, ಪರಿಹಾರ ಕಾವ್ಯಳಿಗೆ ಸಿಗಬೇಡವೆ ?*

*ಶೋಬಕ್ಕ, ನಳಿನಣ್ಣ ಕಾವ್ಯಳು ನಿಮ್ಮ ತಂಗಿಯಾದ ಹಿಂದೂ ಸಹೋದರಿ ಯಲ್ಲವೇ ?*

ಯಾಕೆ ಶರತ್ ಗೊಂದು ನೀತಿ ? ಕಾವ್ಯಳಿಗೊಂದು ನೀತಿ.?

ಕಾವ್ಯಾಳ ಸಾವಿನಿಂದ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ಲಾಭ ಇಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರತಿಭಟನೆ, ಹೋರಾಟ ಇಲ್ಲವಾಯಿತೇ  ?

*ಉತ್ತರ ಸಿಗದ ಇಂತಹ ನೂರಾರು ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆ ಗಳು ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಹಿಂದುವಿನ ಮನದಾಳದಿಂದ ಹೊರ ಬಂದಾಗ ಮಾತ್ರ ಹಿಂದು ಸ್ವಾಭಿಮಾನ ದಿಂದ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ದಾಳಕ್ಕೆ ಬಲಿಯಾಗದೆ ಬದುಕಬಲ್ಲನು.

ಹಿಂದುಗಳೇ, ಇನ್ನಾದರು ಎದ್ದೇಳಿ. ಡೊಂಗಿ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ದ ದಗಲ್ಬಾಜಿ ರಾಜಕಾರಣಿ ಗಳ ಓಟ್ ಬ್ಯಾಂಕ್ ಹಿಂದುತ್ವ ವನ್ನು ಬಹಿಷ್ಕಾರ ಹಾಕೋಣ.

*ಸುಂದರ, ಸುರತ್ಕಲ್*

Dubai, Jul 5: Three Indians, who were repatriated on a chartered flight from the UAE on Friday, have been held in the state of Rajasthan after officials seized gold worth Dh2.2million from them, the government announced on Saturday.

They are likely to be placed under arrest along with 11 others, who were repatriated from Saudi Arabia, from whom gold worth Dh5.5million was seized, a statement from the government tweeted by Press Information Bureau in Rajasthan said.

The gold bars were hidden in emergency lamps, photos attached to the tweets showed.

The 14 passengers had arrived at the Jaipur International Airport by two chartered flights.

They were intercepted by the Customs team at the airport and 31.9kg of gold valued at Rs156,759,820 (Dh7.7million) concealed in the baggage was recovered from these passengers.

Three passengers arrived from Ras Al Khaimah by Spice Jet Flight SG9055 and 12 gold bars/bricks weighing 9.3kg valued at Rs.45,761,100 (Dh2.2million) were recovered from them, the statement said.

The Indian Consulate in Dubai confirmed to Gulf News that the flight was chartered by a private company for repatriating its employees.

It is suspected that the passengers were used as carriers to smuggle gold.

The other 11 accused had arrived from Riyadh and 22.65kg of gold bars, predominantly with Suisse markings, valued at Rs110,998,720 (Dh5.5million) were recovered from them.

“The said recovered gold bars have been seized under Section 110 of the Customs Act, 1962. The said passengers are being interrogated and are likely to be placed under arrest in terms of section 104 of the Customs Act, 1962,” the statement added.

Indian media had earlier reported similar cases in which stranded Indians were apparently lured to be carriers for smuggling gold on repatriation flights from various countries.

A spike in gold smuggling attempts using Indians getting repatriated after losing jobs was also reported from the Indian state of Kerala.

In a shocking incident, a pharmacist-cum-production manager of an Ayurvedic product company in Chennai’s T.Nagar died after drinking a chemical preparation he reportedly formulated for tackling the Coronavirus.

The managing director of the company, who is an ophthamologist by qualification, was hospitalised after he fainted soon after he ingested the chemical component.

The deceased, K.Sivanesan, 47, of Perungudi, was with Chennai-based Sujatha Biotech, an Ayurvedic and herbal products company which was founded 30 years ago. It has a plant in Kashipur, Uttarakhand, where Sivanesan was working. Sivanesan had devised formulas of various products and used to visit his managing director Dr. Rajkumar frequently in the city.

Due to the lockdown, Sivanesan came to Chennai and stayed with his family in Perungudi. On Thursday morning, he procured the chemical component from a market in Parry’s Corner.

First he gave a small amount powder he derived from the chemical to 67 years-old Rajkumar who fainted after tasting it.

Even as he was being resuscitated, Sivanesan went into the kitchen of the house and gulped it in liquid form after adding water to it. He could not be revived.

Deputy Commissioner of Police, T.Nagar, Ashok Kumar, said, “Our investigation revealed that Sivanesan died after drinking the preparation he claimed would help COVID-19 patients. His managing director fainted after tasting it initially. Further investigation is on.”

Sivanesan was rushed to a private hospital in T.Nagar and declared dead by the doctors there. Later his body was shifted to Government Royapettah Hospital for post-mortem. Teynampet police registered a case under section 174 of Criminal Procedure Code for unnatural death.

N.S.Vasan, designer-cum-media manager of the company said, “Due to the lockdown, Sivanesan stayed in the city and one day told us he heard of some medicine from U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent speech for curing Coronavirus. He said it would bring more immunity and help to prevent COVID-19. Deciding to test the effect of the medicine, he went to Parry’s Corner and bought the powder.” He added that Sivanesan must have taken a heavy dosage of the ‘drug’ and he was killed instantly.
