Bengaluru, Jul 1: The wife of a senior officer of commercial taxes in Karnataka had to face questions from the sleuths of the National Investigating Agency (NIA) after the love story of a Hindu woman from Gujrat and Muslim man from Kerala culminated in exhibition of communal hatred.

A section of media had called the inter-faith wedding a case of love-jihad, a term used by Indian Christian missionaries and saffron outfits to describe the relationships wherein Hindu and Christian girls marry Muslim boys and follow boy’s faith.

Irshadulla Khan, Deputy Commissioner of Commercial Tax, Kalaburagi, confirmed that a team of officials from NIA recently visited his Bengaluru flat and recorded his wife’s statement before returning with the laptop and mobile phone for analysis.

They recorded the statement to ascertain whether she was in touch with the Gujarati woman, while the latter was studying in Bengaluru in 2014-15.

However, Mr. Khan said that his wife who is an engineer met her once in the city but the victim had not stayed in their house.

“I refute the allegations and I’m ready to cooperate with any kind of investigation,” the government official said.

A police official said that the Gujarati woman and the Kerala man met in 2014-15 when they were studying in Bengaluru. After the woman converted to Islam, the man married her and took her to Jeddah where his parents stayed.

However, later the woman left her husband’s family and returned to Gujarat to her parents’ home. She then lodged a complaint alleging that she was forced to convert to Islam after which she was taken to Jeddah from where they had plans to send her to Syria to fight for Islamic State, a dreaded terror outfits, which normally carries out attacks in Muslim countries tries to destabilize them. The case was handed over to NIA for investigation.

The NIA on January 28, 2018 recorded statements of the woman at their Chennai office, where she gave details of people whom she knew while in Bengaluru in 2014-15. Based on her statements, the sleuths visited Mr. Khan’s house.

Why Cant The NON MUSLIMs understand?? When WE know our CREATOR who created all that exists And REJECT the man mad Gods and statues and animals as gods... U SEE the Brightness in your LIFE coming out of DARKNESS. There may be some who change their religion for boyfriend... But Majority of the coversion happened upon their OWN WILL which is important when U recognize YOUR LORD who created U me and all that exists... TO know YOUR CREATOR ... God has kept his scriptures untouched and its in the ORIGINAL form... "THE QURAN" - Never changed, Never Altered, billions read it, Millions memorized it...   I request my NON MUSLIM brother/Sisters to READ the QURAN before U fall trap to some evil propagandist who deviate U all from knowing the TRUTH of ONE GOD who CREATED all that EXISTS. Read The QURAN - PONDER on what it expects from U and Contemplate on the LIFE which is around YOU.

Bengaluru, Aug 7: Amid the rising number of COVID-19 cases in Karnataka, the state's health department issued fresh guidelines for the disposal of bodies of COVID patients.

"Although an increased risk of COVID infection from a dead body to health workers or family members who follow standard precautions while handling the body is unlikely, the lack of scientific data requires the utmost care to avoid the inadvertent spread of COVID-19 during these times," the statement from the health department's press release read, emphasising on the dignity of the dead and the religious and cultural tradition.

The 23-page press release elaborated on guidelines regarding testing, handling of dead bodies and other specificities in relation to the management of COVID-19 bodies.

"Testing should not be insisted in every case of death, but only when they have a recorded history of influenza-like symptoms. The body should be handed over to the family members/ relatives in a dignified manner immediately after swab collection and hospitals should provide handouts with a list of dos and don'ts in English and Kannada laying down relevant information," the statement said.

It added, "At the mortuary, health care workers, mortuary staff and the family of the deceased body shall not come in direct contact with the dead body and must wear full personal protective equipment (PPE). If the family or relative are for any reason unable to cremate or bury the body, the local health authority shall arrange for the dignified last rites as per the religious traditions of the family."

Regarding autopsies (post mortem) on COVID-19 bodies, the state department said that they should be avoided, except in necessary circumstances.

The statement also gave detailed guidelines regarding the appropriate recording of COVID-19 deaths in line with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines.

Additionally, the health department made a statement about the admission procedure for COVID positive patients referred by other district administrations saying, "It is now mandatory for all the referrals from the BBMP admission and discharge of COVID positive patients to be done through the online COVID Hospital Bed Management System (CHBMS)."

The state's count of coronavirus cases was 1,51,449 in the past 24 hours.

So far, a total of 2,804 people have died due to COVID-19 in the state, while the average recovery rate in Karnataka is 49.3 per cent.

Bengaluru, Feb 14: A 31 -year-old Bhojpuri dancer and another girl were rescued from human traffickers after the former alerted city police on landing at Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) on Tuesday. They were to be received by a woman named Preethi at the airport.

The dancer had been told she was supposed to perform a few stage shows in the city, which has a significant Bhojpuri-speaking population. But when she realised she is likely to be pushed into flesh trade, she raised an alarm.

The woman, Radha (name changed), is a mother of four children and the lone breadwinner of the family. A few months ago, Radha came in contact with a woman named Soniya in New Delhi during a dance performance. Last month, Soniya got in touch with Radha and offered to pay Rs 40,000 per month if she performed in Bengaluru.

Radha agreed and was sent to Bengaluru from Chandigarh along with the other girl. During the journey, she learnt she was supposed to do more than just perform on stage. A shocked Radha informed the Central Industrial Security Force personnel manning KIA that she feared being pushed into prostitution. KIA police were informed and the women were rescued. Preethi was arrested.
