Udupi, Aug 22: The Udupi district police on Monday suspended three police personnel for alleged dereliction of duty in bringing the three accused in the Bhaskar Shetty murder case in an air-conditioned Multi Utility Vehicle (MUV) from the prison in Mangaluru to the Court Complex here in Udupi.

The three accused — Rajeshwari Shetty, Navneet Shetty and Niranjan Bhat — were being brought from the prison in Mangaluru to be produced in court here for hearing in the case on Monday.

Sanjeev M. Patil, Superintendent of Police, said that the three police personnel, Sudhakar, Assistant Reserve Police, Sub-Inspector, Renuka, woman police constable, and Salman Khan, civil police constable, have been suspended based on a preliminary enquiry by the Deputy Superintendent of Police of Udupi Sub Division.

They have been suspended pending detailed departmental enquiry, he said.

The visuals of them being brought in the air-conditioned MUV were telecast on some Kannada news channels.

Bhaskar Shetty, a NRI businessman, went missing from his house here on July 28, 2016, and his mother Gulabi Shetty lodged a missing complaint at the Manipal police station on July 29, 2016. The police arrested his wife Rajeshwari Shetty and their son Navneet Shetty on the charge of murdering him.

Mangaluru, Mar 7: After coronavirus cases were confirmed in different parts of the country, there has been a sudden jump in demand for mask and safety gears like gloves and sanitizers in Mangaluru and Udupi.

With the increase in demand, medical shop owners said that they were finding it difficult to meet the demand.

In fact, there is a demand for bulk supply of masks and gloves. There was demand for masks when Covid-19 was confirmed in China two months ago. Bulk quantities of masks were purchased in order to supply them to Indian employees working in China. A few private firms had purchased masks from Mangaluru in the month of December.

Bengaluru, Feb 26: Congress leaders on Wednesday staged a protest in front of Mahatma Gandhi's statue at Vidhana Soudha here against BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yathnal's alleged remarks accusing freedom fighter HS Doreswamy of being a "Pakistani agent".

Former Chief Minister and senior Congress leader Siddaramaiah, KPCC working president Eashwar Khandre also joined the protest.

Yathnal on Tuesday called Doreswamy a fake freedom fighter and a Pakistani agent, while addressing the media.

His comments triggered a controversy drawing sharp remarks from Congress and other parties.

Congress has demanded an apology from Yathnal and has also urged that his Assembly membership be cancelled.

"Session proceedings will not continue until Yathnal apologises," said senior Congress leader HK Patil while addressing the protest earlier today.

Siddaramaiah asserted that making "provocative" comments against such a freedom fighter is obnoxious.

Former KPCC president Dr G Parameshwar said: "Yathnal is a criminal who had mentioned in his election affidavit that he had 27 cases against him. He has made such loose comments against the freedom fighter. He should apologise for his remarks."
