Chikkamagaluru, Sept 10: A 35-year-old man beheaded his wife, packed her head into a bag and walked into a police station with the severed head to surrender. The chilling incident happened at Ajjampura in Karnataka’s malnad district of Chikkamagaluru.

It is learnt that Satish while returning home found his wife, Roopa, with another man identified as Sunil. In a fit of anger, Satish decapitated his wife with a machete while injuring her paramour, who managed to escape.

A video that captured Satish's act and justifications has gone viral on the social media. He also holds a machete used for the crime.

Satish had married Roopa 9 years ago. The couple have two children Ganesh (7) and Lakshmi (4). He was a driver with a private bus operator in Bengaluru before starting a poultry stall.

Cracks had begun in his domestic life about two years ago when he saw her with Sunil, a daily-wage labour. There used to be frequent fights between the two as she would often visit Sunil, who, as per Satish's claims, has many criminal cases.

"I took care of her and loved deeply, but she backstabbed me. She would spend time with him though I was her husband," Satish is seen as saying in the video.

"I had requested her to quit his association and work in my stall, but she hadn't heeded to my request. She would be with him in compromising positions in bathroom," he says in the video.

"A month ago, elders had finalised a compromise. She had given in writing to the elders that she would part ways with me and children. I wanted to kill him, but he escaped," adds Satish, who later led the police to the spot where he had killed her with a machete.

The police booked Satish under IPC section 302 (murder) and arrested him. The body was handed over after post-mortem at community health centre, Ajjampur.

Society and people should not encourage such criminal acts. In India there is law and courts. Let the court decides

Bengaluru, Jan 14: A woman has sustained burns on the left hand and the left chest in a vicious acid attack that occurred as she walked home in Mallappa Layout, Seegehalli, near KR Puram in Bengaluru.

Prabhavathi, the victim, and her husband, Radhakrishna Reddy, own an acre and six guntas of land in Seegehalli. They had constructed 20 houses on the parcel and rented them while keeping the rest of the land empty and building a boundary wall around it, according to a senior police officer. 

Four men named Ravi, Kumar, Ashirvadam and Shekar laid claim to the land and demolished the boundary wall two years ago. When the couple approached the cops, Manjunath, a sub-inspector from KR Puram police station, visited the spot along with other officers and allegedly abused Reddy and his family. 

Reddy then approached a senior police officer who suggested that he file a complaint against the sub-inspector as well as his rivals for threatening the family. The case is pending in a case. 

On January 7, Ravi, along with four others — Raghu, Kabalan, Ashrivadam and Munireddy — mocked Prabhavathi as she walked home. They asked her to withdraw the complaint. When she ignored them, one of the men motioned to another person. In a flash, a man in the group threw acid on Prabhavathi. The liquid fell on her left hand and left chest, gashing them. Her screams drew her family who rushed her to a hospital. 

Reddy said the suspects had been intimidating them to sell the remaining land. He accused the KR Puram sub-inspector of “threatening” the family.

According to Reddy, following their complaint, a departmental enquiry was launched against the sub-inspector and his promotion was stalled. He suggested that the suspects had used the acid attack as a weapon to “silence” and force them into withdrawing the complaints. 

Following the acid attack, KR Puram police booked eight people — Ravi, Raghu, Kabalan, Ashirvadam, Munireddy, Sachin, Rahul, and Kumareshan — under IPC sections 326 (a) (acid attack) and 506 (criminal intimidation). Efforts are on to track them down.

Mangaluru, Feb 12: More than 7,000 people at Mangalore International Airport (MIA) and over 1,000 at the New Mangalore Port (NMP) have undergone thermal screening for the novel coronavirus in the past few days, a taluk health official said on Wednesday.

A few more ships are scheduled to arrive at the port and all precautionary measures to check the ship’s passengers and crew are ready, he said.

Soon after a positive case of deadly pathogen surfaced in Kerala, the district health officials here actively started monitoring all entry points in the bordering district. 

Apart from Mangaluru, there is bus connectivity to Puttur, Sullia, Bantwal, Dharmasthala and Subrahmanya from Kerala. More than eight to 10 trains arrive at Mangaluru daily from Kerala.

Hence, it is impossible to take up screening of all the vehicles arriving from Kerala, sources in District Health and Family Welfare said.
