The passenger, B Peter Richard (60), was a Sydney resident and was travelling alone. Richard started bleeding from his mouth and nose while on board. He collapsed while going to the washroom. A co-passenger, who is a doctor, declared him dead.

The flight EK 440 landed at Mumbai airport around 7.30am. Medical and security personnel attended the arrival flight, said an Emirates spokesperson. "As soon as the flight landed in Mumbai, the Sahar airport police rushed Richard to a public hospital. An autopsy was carried out at the Cooper post-mortem examination centre and it was videographed," said a police officer.

Officials said that Richard was on medication and his medicines were found in his bag. "As he is a foreign national, the autopsy was videographed. The Australian embassy has been informed of the death. We conducted an inquest panchnama around 10.30am," an officer from Sahar police station said. "Based on the details in Richard's passport, the Australian embassy will locate his family in Sydney and inform them. The embassy will make arrangements to take Richard's body to Australia," the officer said. The Sahar police have recorded an accidental death case.

Forensic doctors at the post-mortem centre said that the cause of death has been reserved, pending chemical analysis and histopathology examination. The body will be moved out of the mortuary on Monday.

The Emirates official said that due to night-time arrival/departure restrictions in Adelaide, the aircraft returned to Dubai. "Passengers will be accommodated in hotels in Dubai and will re-board the delayed flight EK440 from Dubai to Adelaide at 11pm on Sunday," the spokesperson added.

May 14,2020

Bengaluru, May 14: Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Former Union Minister and Congress Karnataka MLC, C M Ibrahim has, in a letter to Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa, sought permission for the Muslim community to congregate at Idgah grounds and mosques to offer namaz together on the occasion of Id-ul-Fitr later this month.

I would suggest that the Government may take a decision by having due consultation with medical experts to grant permission for Muslims on the day of Id to offer prayers in the Idgah maidans or masjids from morning till 1 pm with all precautionary measures and safety norms," the letter states.

"In this regard. I request you to kindly look into the matter and after consulting the medical experts, take a suitable decision enabling Muslims all over the state to offer ld prayers at ldgah Maidans or Masjids in their respective localities," the letter added.

As part of its COVID-19 guidelines, the Ministry of Home Affairs had earlier directed states and Union territories to prevent social gatherings and religious congregations and ensure lockdown measures were strictly followed.

If Mr. Yediyurappa gives permission as reqested by Ibrahim, it will be adisastor for Muslims community, Saudi Arabia imposed , full curfew from 23rd to 30th May, 2020, this is to avoid Eid gathering and spread of Corona Virus, our community should boycott such so called self declared leader.

Any new cases of Covid-19 cases will be blamed as Eid Jihad, request all our like minded people to protest this request.

CM Ibrahim is just trying to attract media and public atttention. he is a useless politician.

Who is he? What is he? And what did he do to Muslim community and who gave him the authorization to talk to the minister of behalf of Muslim Community

It will be disastrous for PR, and Joy ride for Atunab & sudir...

This Chadi people will be very happy and start calling this Eid Jeehad...

Swiggy to lay off 1,100 employees as corona hits online food orders

News Network

May 18,2020

Bengaluru, May 18: Indian food delivery startup Swiggy said on Monday it would lay off 1,100 employees, or nearly 14% of its workforce, to cut costs, as a weeks-long nationwide lockdown to curb the coronavirus outbreak hits demand for online food ordering.

The company, backed by South African internet giant Naspers, also said it will scale down adjacent businesses and has already shut several of its cloud kitchens - facilities that only cater to takeaway orders - temporarily or permanently.

“The core food delivery business has been severely impacted and will stay impacted over the short term, but is expected to start growing again after that,” said Sriharsha Majety, co-founder and chief executive at Bengaluru-based Swiggy.

Swiggy, one of India’s best known startups, is among many that are laying off employees and reshaping their business in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has forced 1.3 billion Indians indoors and crippled business.

India is currently under a two-month lockdown, and though several curbs are being eased, public places such as restaurants remain closed, hurting restaurants themselves as well as companies such as Swiggy and main rival Zomato.
