Karwar, Sept 8: Sachidanand Hegde, a local journalist, is receiving threat calls from a number, displayed as only ‘unknown’ on his phone, in the past one week.

Addressing a media conference on Thursday, Hegde said that the continuous threat calls have caused concern among his family members.

He said that had been exposing the ‘misdeeds’ of the Hosanagar Ramachandrapur Mutt pontiff Raghaveshwara Bharati, of late, and that may be the reason why he is receiving the calls.

Hegde had been working as a reporter and editor. Now, he has continued as a writer to highlight the ills of the society on social media. The journalist said he had so far received 25 threat calls.
