Mangaluru, Oct 6: The additional chief judicial magistrate (ACJM) court has served warrant to RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat in connection with the suicide of Shyam Prasad Shastry of Kedila village in Puttur.

The court also has issued a summon to Ramachandrapura Mutt seer Raghaveshwara Bharati, and another warrant to Puttur Havyaka Valaya Bonantaya president Shiva Shankara Bhat, on Friday, and the hearing for the same will be held on October 31.

Last week, The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) filed a chargesheet against Ramachandrapura Mutt seer Raghaveshwara Bharati, RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat and Puttur Havyaka Valaya Bonantaya president Shiva Shankara Bhat in connection with a suicide that took place in 2014.

The trio has been charged under IPC Sections 306 (abettment to suicide) and 506 (criminal intimidation).

The victim Shyam Prasad Shastry is the brother-in-law of a singer, who alleged that seer Raghaveshwara Bharati had sexually abused her. Later, there were allegations that the singer and her husband had been blackmailing the seer, and hence the Honnavar police had arrested them. Following this, the trio allegedly issued Shastry threats. Following Shastry’s death, his wife Lakshmi had filed a police complaint in this connection.

Shastry had recorded the phone conversation and these had been handed over to the police. The case was initially probed by the police at Puttur Town station and later handed over to the CID.

Bengaluru, Feb 26: Karnataka Police and intelligence have been asked to be on alert in the wake of communal violence in Delhi and take preemptive measures, state Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai said here on Wednesday.

"We have been keeping a close watch on the developments after the Delhi incident. I have instructed my officers to be on alert and take precautionary actions rather than actions after the incidents," Bommai told media.

"The day before yesterday we had a high-level meeting...we are having a close watch," he added.

Violence erupted in Delhi on Sunday evening after groups protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and those supporting it indulged in stone pelting at each other.

The confrontation soon turned communal and the violence spread to other areas of northeast Delhi including Chand Bagh, Mustafabad, Brijpuri, Shiv Vihar and Noor Ilahi on Monday and Tuesday in which at least 20 persons, including a police head constable, have died and over 200 have been injured.

Bengaluru, Jan 6: There is a wide spread criticism by the Janata Dal(S) and Congress leaders over a proposal to rename Ramanagaram district as New (Nava) Bengaluru, Karnataka Chief Minister CM Yediyurappa said on Monday.

“An unnecessary discussion on renaming Ramanagaram is under way. There is no thought before the government over renaming," The CM accused the Congress and JD(S) leaders of indulging in baseless discussion to mislead the people and to remain relevant. "There is no such agenda before the government. It is a joke that JD(S) and Congress leaders are starting a fight over it.”

The Chief Minister’s clarification came after criticism by former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy, who carved out the Ramanagaram district when he was Chief Minister, and former Minister DK Shivakumar whose Kanakapura constituency is in Ramanagaram district, after Deputy Chief Minister CN Ashwath Narayan said Ramanagaram could be renamed as Nava Bengaluru to increase investments prospects.

A few miscreants had forged this order and circulated it on social media stating that a holiday had been declared for schools and colleges in the district on January 8.
