Bangalore, January 1: The Central Crime Branch officers have arrested another person in connection with the sensational case of abduction and murder of two Hunsur students in Mysore in June this year. The suspect is Mirza Tanveer Baig, 28, a resident of Post Office Road, Club Road, Hunsur.

Gathering credible information, a police team left for Pune and arrested Tanveer from Jamia Masjid at Pimpri on December 26. Police in mufti were waiting for the prime suspect Naveed and Baig to come out of the masjid after prayers. Naveed noticed the plainclothes cops as he approached the main gate of the mosque. He rushed back, scaled a mosque wall and escaped. However, Baig walked right into the police net.

Baig was allegedly involved in a murder case in 2009. The court remanded him in police custody till January 5, said an officer. Tanveer is the twelfth person to be arrested in the students’ murder case. Five are still at large, said the CCB police.

The suspects allegedly abducted Sudheendra and Vignesh, both BBM students of Mahajan College Mysore, on June 8, 2011. They allegedly abducted them for a Rs five-crore ransom.

But they decided to murder them once they realised they might not get the ransom and fearing consequences if their names became public. The suspects forced the two students to swallow sleeping tablets, then stabbed and hanged them. Before fleeing, they dumped the bodies near Chikkaballapur.

Police arrested six people on June 26. They were Adil Pasha, Syed Ameen, Shabbir-ur-Rehman, Mohammad Kousar, Ataullah Khan and Safeer Ahmed. The police took Shafeer Ahmed into custody on June 7 and Khaleed Ahmed, Mohammad Hussein and Gause Khan on July 9. Later, Soheb and Syed Shaheeb were arrested.

Jun 25: A 16-year-old girl allegedly committed suicide at her house in east Delhi and her family members secretly buried her body, which was later exhumed for post-mortem, police said on Wednesday.

The girl, whose family hails from Jharkhand, allegedly hanged herself in a room in her house on Monday, they said.

No suicide note was recovered from the spot, police said.

Her body was exhumed on Tuesday as per the directions of the Sub Divisional Magistrate of the area. The process was carried out as her family members secretly buried her without informing the police.

The post-mortem will be conducted after Covid-19 tests, police said.

The incident took place on Monday. The reason behind her taking the extreme step is yet to be ascertained, they said.

Police said the girl lived with her mother and two siblings. The family hails from Jharkhand and are financially extremely weak. Her father died two years ago, they said.

After the father’s death, the girl's mother along with her siblings took her body to a burial ground and buried her, police said.

The police said the matter came to their notice after a neighbour alerted them about it. Following the information the body was exhumed, they said.

On questioning the girl's mother, she told police that she didn't know that one has to inform police in a suicide case, a senior police officer said.

Inquest proceedings have been initiated, police said.

Amaravati, Jul 31: Nine people have died after allegedly consuming sanitiser in Prakasam district of Andhra Pradesh today, the police said.

Prakasam district Superintendent of Police Siddharth Kaushal said the people had been consuming sanitiser for the past few days, mixing it with water and soft drinks.

"We are also investigating whether they laced the sanitiser with any other toxic substances," the official said.

"Their family members say these people have been consuming sanitiser for the past ten days. We are sending the sanitiser stocks, being sold in the area, for examination," he added.

Kurichedu in Prakasam district has been under lockdown due to rise in coronavirus cases and hence, liquor shops have also been shut since the past few days.

Habitual drinkers were said to be consuming sanitisers that have alcohol content, apart from illicitly distilled arrack.

The police said two beggars near a temple were the first to fall victim on Thursday night. While one of them was found dead at the spot, another died in the government hospital in Darsi town, they said.

A third person was also taken to the Darsi hospital late on Thursday night after he fell unconscious but he was declared brought dead. Six others who fell ill after allegedly consuming sanitiser, died this morning.

Others who fell ill after consuming sanitiser are undergoing treatment at their residences in the village, the police added.
