Mangaluru, Sept 26: Two persons — a man and a woman — have been arrested by the Mangaluru city police on charge of blackmailing, abducting and robbing a senior citizen.

The arrested have been identified as Rajesh Pavithran, 34, resident of Kuttar and district president of the Hindu Mahasabha, and Srilatha, 30, Mangaluru taluk president of Karnataka Rakshana Vedike.

Police said that the two along with their gang recorded a 76-year-old businessman’s sexual act with women and threatened to release the video to the media if he did not heed their demand.

Mangaluru, Jun 2: Karnataka-Kerala border at Talapady is yet to be opened for traffic despite lifting lockdown. Only those, who have registered on ‘Seva Sindhu’ portal, are given one-time permission to enter the district.

With the relaxation of the lock-down many, especially the labour class, were anticipating free movement. However, both the States have not allowed free movement of vehicles. Hundreds of people from bordering villages of Kerala arrive in Mangaluru for work and likewise many from bordering villages of Mangaluru too work in Kasargod district.

It has become a routine for the labourers of both the States living in border villages to daily assemble at the check post in the morning and return after the authorities refuse free movement.
