Bengaluru, Nov 26: A Sangh Parivar backed journalist, who is facing charge of trying to create unrest by making derogatory remarks against Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), has filed a complaint with the cyber crime cell of the Bengaluru police claiming that he received death threats on social media.

Santosh Thammaiah, who hails from Kodagu, was arrested and later released on bail earlier this month after he made communally provocative remarks during a programme to denounce Tipu Sultan.

In his complaint, which he lodged on Thursday, he alleged that five people had threatened his life on a popular social networking site.

Members of the group that sent the messages reportedly said they would kill him in one month and challenged him to try and save himself. The cyber crime police have taken up a case under various sections of the IT Act and also under criminal intimidation.

“We are tracking down the accused based on the IP address they used,” said a police officer.

As he is journalist, he might have some sense.

 

We Muslims have the guidance from our prophet (Peace be upon him) in all aspects of our life.

 

 

Kuffar of Makkah, Taif have hurted him, troubled, though suffering lots of troubles he has set example of not retaliating them. He has slowly convinced what is true message, what is truth in it.

 

 

As he is journalist, it is not difficult to convince him the message of Islam. Usually most of the journalists are brave and they remain strong with truth. He is also from Kodagu. Try to meet him and debate with him on Islam. If Allah bestows him Hidayat, he might understand true message of Islam and accept it. We have example of Omer Bin Khattab - may Allah pleased with him.

Udupi, Jun 28: The Padubidri police have booked cases against two patients of Novel Coronavirus for not revealing their primary contacts and hiding their travel history.

According to DHO Sudhirchandra Sooda, two siblings from Hejamadi in Padubidri had tested positive for COVID-19 recently. After shifting to the hospital, when the officials asked them about their primary contacts and travel history, the patients furnished false information.

When the officials collected information from various sources, they realised that the duo had travelled to Bantwal, Kasargod, Ullal and other places in Dakshina Kannada, said Dr Sooda. Hence, the district administration decided to file cases against them, he added.
