36-year-old Mohammed Iqbal, a resident of Kavoor-Shantinagar here, is undergoing treatment at a private hospital in the city after the brutal assault of April 19.

According to Mr Iqbal, the cops are trying to falsely implicate him in a murder conspiracy case and forcing him to confess to a crime he did not commit.

“A month ago police had visited my house to question me in connection with a murder conspiracy case. It was a shock for me as I knew nothing about the case. I really do not know who hatched the murder conspiracy and who the target was,” he said.

“Police have already arrested two persons in connection with the case. When I came to know that they are trying to arrest two more persons including me, I decided to apply for an anticipatory bail,” he said.

He said that on April 19, he had gone to Kavoor police station to submit the copy of the anticipatory bail. “They confined me in the station from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the name of interrogation. Later they handed me over to the City Crime Branch sleuths, who brutally tortured me,” he said.

Mr Iqbal said that CCB inspector Valentine D'Souza, constables Sunil, Is'haq, Chanrahas and five others gave him unbearable physical torture, even though they were aware that he had secured a bail.

“They made me to stand semi-naked and then inhumanly thrashed and kicked me repeatedly. My hands, legs and private parts were severely injured. Now I can't even walk properly,” he said.

Bengaluru, Jun 19: Congress leaders BK Hariprasad and Naseer Ahmed filed their nominations as party candidates for Legislative Council elections in Bengaluru and KPCC chief DK Shivakumar said that the two leaders have been given ticket to strengthen the party with their guidance.

"The Legislative Council means the Upper House and the Elders House. We have unanimously agreed to select and send these two senior leaders to discuss the party organization and various issues of the state in Legislative Council. There were plenty of aspirants to enter the Upper House. But it is decided to elect these two leaders and they will contest the election," Shivakumar said.

"We need seniority to guide us... That's the reason we are selecting these leaders... The high command has given these senior leaders the opportunity to discuss with all our leaders about strengthening the party," he added.

The elections are scheduled to be held on June 29.

Mangaluru, June 10: Former minister and Mangaluru MLA U T Khader has hit out at the Karnataka government for what he opined that it is misusing the Epidemic Diseases Act to target opposition parties. 

The statement comes in the backdrop of state government’s move to scuttle oath taking ceremony of KPCC president designate D K Shivakumar.

Asserting that the oath taking will be a grand affair, Mr Khader said that Congress will not be browbeaten by the tactics of the BJP.

Citing the blatant violation of all norms laid down under the Act by minister for health B R Sriramulu at Chitradurga earlier this month, Khader told reporters that the BJP is using the Act for its narrow political gains.

“KPCC has twice deferred swearing in ceremony of Shivakumar after being given the oral go ahead,” Khader claimed, adding the state government must explain to people the issue it has with the Congress organising this function.

Referring to the back-to-back virtual political rallies – one for Bihar and the other for Odisha – on Sunday and Monday that union home minister Amit Shah conducted, Khader wondered if the Act did not apply to the BJP leadership.
