Bengaluru, Jan 20: Unidentified thieves decamped with 19 kg of gold biscuits of a passenger on board the Kurla Express, heading towards Bengaluru.

Mumbai-based businessman Rijoy, who works with a private gold company, was on his way to the city carrying gold biscuits in a suitcase. Around midnight when he was asleep with the bag next to him, his bag was stolen, he told the police.

The victim claims that theft took place near Hindupur station, but admitted that he realised his bag was missing only later.

As soon as he got down on Friday in Bengaluru, he lodged a complaint with the Cantonment Railway Police.

City police officials have gotten in touch with their counterparts in Mumbai and Hindupur in an effort to identify the thieves. A case of robbery has been registered with the Cantonment Railway Police, but will be transferred to Hindupur police station, said officials.

Atleast he would have take another man (relative or brother) with him. He took too risky decision by going alone with this much gold

Bengaluru, Mar 10: With concerns growing by the day, the Karnataka government is readying three more labs to test throat swab samples.

Currently, only two labs in Bengaluru — National Institute of Virology and Virus Research and Diagnostics Laboratory (VRDL) lab attached to Bangalore Medical College and Research Institute — are categorised biosafety level 2+, a requirement for coronavirus tests.

Now, the government is working on upgrading three more labs, one each in the government medical colleges at Hassan, Mysuru and Shivamogga. “The labs will be ready within one week,” the authorities said.

Currently, the labs are testing only throat swab samples of suspected patients and taking 24 hours to give the results. “A patient’s blood sample will be collected only if he or she tests positive for covid-19 infection in the first throat swab sample.

While earlier the state would send all samples of suspected coronavirus cases to NIV, Pune, the two labs were upgraded to biosafety level 2+ in mid-February.

Bengaluru, May 20: An owner of a hair cutting training salon in the city has given shelter to the jobless IT professionals and migrant workers hailing from north-eastern states and Nepal, in his salon.

Rahul Rai, the owner said, "The moment the lockdown started then I received many complaints from different corners that several persons became jobless and they were thrown out of their rented accommodations."

"They are from different states of the North-east and some of them are from Nepal also. I converted my hair-cutting training salon into a shelter home for them," he added.

A person who got shelter at the salon said, "I lost my job after the lockdown started. I was facing a lot of issues after my landlord had evicted me from my rented accommodation. I spent about a week nearby a lake. I managed to contact Rahul Rai through Facebook and he rescued me along with many others."
