Karwar, Sept 8: Sachidanand Hegde, a local journalist, is receiving threat calls from a number, displayed as only ‘unknown’ on his phone, in the past one week.

Addressing a media conference on Thursday, Hegde said that the continuous threat calls have caused concern among his family members.

He said that had been exposing the ‘misdeeds’ of the Hosanagar Ramachandrapur Mutt pontiff Raghaveshwara Bharati, of late, and that may be the reason why he is receiving the calls.

Hegde had been working as a reporter and editor. Now, he has continued as a writer to highlight the ills of the society on social media. The journalist said he had so far received 25 threat calls.

Hubballi/Vijayapura, Feb 26: A 40-year-old resident of Talikoti town in Vijayapura was arrested on Tuesday and charged with sedition for allegedly saying 'I Love Pak Army' on a social media page and sharing a video of a song, 'Pakistan Zindabad'.

Police said they registered an FIR against Meru alias Merusab Hasansab Byagwat on a complaint filed by a contractor, Ashok Rathod of Nebgiri Tanda.

Byagwat has been booked under IPC sections pertaining to sedition (124A), promoting enmity between communities and making assertions prejudicial to national integration (153 A & B), among others.

In his complaint, Rathod said Meru had posted the video on his social media account on February 22. Rathod said he took a screenshot of the video and made some inquiries before approaching police.

Police said Meru would be produced in court soon.

Police said they are keeping a watch on pro-Pakistan activities. On Monday, slogans praising Pakistan surfaced on the walls of a government primary school in Budarsinghi. In the third week of February, three Kashmiri students shot a video hailing Pakistan and circulated it on social media in Hubballi.
