Mangaluru, Dec 30: Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner Sasikanth Senthil has issued orders to extern two persons including a leader of Hindu Jagarana Vedike (HJV) for six months on charge of causing communal riots in Bantwal taluk earlier this year.

A clash between HJV leader Ratnakar Shetty and one Ibrahim Khaleel at Kalladka on June 13 had snowballed into communal clash in the region. Shetty had stabbed Khaleel. Both had filed complaints against each other at Bantwal Town Police.

While Khaleel was arrested soon after he got admitted to a hospital, Shetty, who had suffered minor injuries in the clash, was arrested nearly two months later.

Superintendent of Police Sudhir Kumar Reddy said that both of them were involved in several crimes and rowdy-sheets have been opened against them at Bantwal Rural police station.

An application for externment of Ratnakar Shetty and Khaleel was pending before the deputy commissioner for the past two months. After several hearings, the deputy commissioner on Friday ordered them to stay out of Dakshina Kannada district for six months, he said.

No PFI connection

Meanwhile, the local unit of Popular Front of India has rubbished the reports of some news portals that portrayed Ibrahim Khaleel as a PFI activist. “Khaleel is not a PFI activist. He has no connection with PFI” stated Navaz Ullal, DK district president of PFI.
