Mangaluru, Jan 5: The family members of Deepak Rao, who was hacked to death by a gang of miscreants two days ago, have refused to accept the compensation personally offered by local MLA B A Mohiuddin Bava.

On Friday, Mr Bava went to the house of Deepak along with MLC Ivan D’Souza and offered to give a cheque for Rs. 5 lakh as personal compensation.

However, the family members and the others who were present in the house, took Mr Bava to task for not attending the funeral of Deepak, which was held on Thursday.

Mr Bava tried to convince them saying that police had asked him not to attend funeral ceremony as thousands of Sangh Parivar activists had gathered in the spot.

However the family members refused to accept the cheque. They said that the government’s compensation was enough for the family. The government has already announced Rs 10 lakh compensation to the aggrieved family.

Deepak’s mother told the MLA that the money can’t bring back her son. Mr Bava and Mr D’Souza returned unable to console the family members.

Meanwhile rumours are doing rounds on social media that saffron leaders persuaded the family members of Deepak to reject the personal compensation offered by Mr Bava.
