Newton's third law states that - for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Whatever he did, he got back the same.
Killers might know him well. RIP
Our cops are not so efficient. They are investigating only after murder. They are not doing precautions well
A small correction in top cops' words (recenlty top cop said ablout media negativity) - "Mangaluru WAS peaceful city. and Not only media, people are also so negative."
Murders increasing. Cops should act immediately
If he was a rowday/suspect also murder cant justify.
People dont have the value for animal. Shocking murder.
Shocking!!!
What is happening in Mangaluru. Seems like someone has taken the oath of cleaning Managaluru from Rowdies. Is anyone has seen SHAHENSHA there?
