Mangaluru, Jan 20: A local youth, said to be a Bajrang Dal activist, wanted in the murder case of Harish Poojary has been arrested by the Dakshina Kannada district police in Gujarat.

terrorRaviraj, one of the four accused involved in the killing of Harish Poojary on November 12, 2015 in Bantwal taluk, had left the coastal district after police came to known the fact that the murder was committed by Bajrang Dal activists.

On November 19, the police had managed to arrest Bajrang Dal leader and rowdy-sheeter Bhuvith Shetty (25) and his associate Achyuta (28), near Mani village in Bantwal taluk. On November 30 the cops had arrested another accused Mithun Poojary (27) of Goltamajalu, near Bantwal.

However, the police had failed to trace Raviraj, the fourth accused, who was living in his uncle Ramsh at Vastrapur in Ahmedabad district of Gujarat. On January 18 a team of Police from Bantwal rural police station visited Ahmedabad and arrested him.

Circle inspector Belliyappa, under the guidance of SP Sharanappa and ASP Rahul Kumar, led the team of police comprising Sub Inspector Rakshat, ASI Ramesh and constables Jagadish and Raja to nab the culprit.

It could be recalled here that Harish Poojary and his friend Sameeullah were attacked by the miscreants with lethal weapons at Manihalli in Bantwal taluk hours after Sangh Parivar activists tried to disrupt peace by pelting stones at SDPI protesters in BC Road. Harish died soon after the attack and Sameeullah is still recuperating at a hospital.

A day after killing Harish Poojary, the district unit of Bajrang Dal had imposed bandh alleging that he was killed by Muslim groups.

Now am wondering how do the hindus feel when they see some of their people doing crime and whole the community is blamed and called as saffron terrorism. Same as happening when few muslims do some crime and whole community is blamed for it.

Matter of time..
