Mangaluru, Jul 29: Various organisations including students groups and political parties have continued to press for a high level probe into the mysterious suicide case of Kavya Poojary, a Class 10 student of Alva’s High School, Moodbidri.

The 16 year-old girl, who was also a state level badminton player, was found hanging at her hostel room on the evening of July 20. She was rushed to a hospital, where she was declared dead. Her parents have termed it a murder.

Students groups like Students Federation of India, Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, National Students Union of India, Campus Front of India, All college Student Union etc have staged separate demonstrations in last two days condemning the death and demanded high level probe into the case.

On the other hand, Democratic Youth Federation of India, Sri Ram Sena, Friends Ballalbagh Biruver Kudla etc also have demanded CID or CBI probe into the case. Sri Ram Sena has urged the government to immediately give Rs 25 lakh compensation to the kin of the girl.

Daughter of Lokesh and Baby couple from Yekkaru Devagudde near Kateel, the girl was staying in the Alva’s hostel for past one month. According to Moodbidri police, who brushed aside the murder allegation, she used a saree, said to be belonging to one of her roommates’ parents, to resort to the extreme step.

However, following the allegations by the parents, the commissioner of police T R Suresh has formed a team headed by Mangaluru North ACP Rajendra and asked them to conduct a detailed probe. The team also visited the hostel and institution to take stock of the situation.

Phone call clip goes viral

Meanwhile, an audio clip of phone call between Kavya and her family members on the eve of her death has gone viral on social media. Though it was said that she committed suicide under depression developed over securing very less marks in the exam, the audio clip indicates that she was very happy. The girl had also asked her parents to bring her lots of chocolates.

*ಶೋಬ ಕರಂದ್ಲಾಜೆ, ನಳೀನ್ ಕುಮಾರ್ ಕಟೀಲ್ ಕಾಣೆಯಾಗಿದ್ದಾರೆ*

ಕಾವ್ಯ ಎಂಬ ಅಮಾಯಕ ಹೆಣ್ಣು ಮಗಳು ಜೀವ ತೆತ್ತಿದ್ದಾಳೆ. ಆತ್ಮಹತ್ಯೆ ಯೋ ? ಕೊಲೆಯೋ ? ಏನೇ ಆಗಿರಲಿ. 
ಹಿಂದುವಿನ ಶವ ಬಿದ್ದರೆ, ಅದನ್ನು ಮುಸ್ಲಿಮರ ತಲೆಗೆ ಕಟ್ಟಿ ಜಿಲ್ಲೆ ಗೆ, ರಾಜ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ಬೆಂಕಿ ಹಾಕಲು ಹೊರಟ ಬಿಜೆಪಿಯ ನಾಯಕರು ಕಾವ್ಯಳ ಮನೆಗೆ ಸೌಜನ್ಯದ ಭೇಟಿ ಮಾಡಿ ನ್ಯಾಯ ಸಿಗಬೇಕೆಂದು, ಕೇಂದ್ರ ದ ಎನ್ ಐ ತನಿಖೆ ನಡೆಸ ಬೇಕೆಂದು ಆಗ್ರಹಿಸಲಿಲ್ಲ.

*ಕಾವ್ಯ ಹಿಂದು ವಲ್ಲವೇ  ?*

*ಕಾವ್ಯಳ ಸಾವು ಹಿಂದು ಧರ್ಮಕ್ಕೆ ಆದ ಅನ್ಯಾಯ ವಲ್ಲವೇ ?*

*ಬಿ ಸಿ ರೋಡ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ಹತ್ಯೆ ಗೀಡಾದ ಶರತ್ ಗಿರುವ ಪ್ರತಿಭಟನೆ, ಬಂದ್ ,ಹೋರಾಟ, ಪರಿಹಾರ ಕಾವ್ಯಳಿಗೆ ಸಿಗಬೇಡವೆ ?*

*ಶೋಬಕ್ಕ, ನಳಿನಣ್ಣ ಕಾವ್ಯಳು ನಿಮ್ಮ ತಂಗಿಯಾದ ಹಿಂದೂ ಸಹೋದರಿ ಯಲ್ಲವೇ ?*

ಯಾಕೆ ಶರತ್ ಗೊಂದು ನೀತಿ ? ಕಾವ್ಯಳಿಗೊಂದು ನೀತಿ.?

ಕಾವ್ಯಾಳ ಸಾವಿನಿಂದ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ಲಾಭ ಇಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರತಿಭಟನೆ, ಹೋರಾಟ ಇಲ್ಲವಾಯಿತೇ  ?

*ಉತ್ತರ ಸಿಗದ ಇಂತಹ ನೂರಾರು ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆ ಗಳು ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಹಿಂದುವಿನ ಮನದಾಳದಿಂದ ಹೊರ ಬಂದಾಗ ಮಾತ್ರ ಹಿಂದು ಸ್ವಾಭಿಮಾನ ದಿಂದ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ದಾಳಕ್ಕೆ ಬಲಿಯಾಗದೆ ಬದುಕಬಲ್ಲನು.

ಹಿಂದುಗಳೇ, ಇನ್ನಾದರು ಎದ್ದೇಳಿ. ಡೊಂಗಿ ರಾಜಕೀಯ ದ ದಗಲ್ಬಾಜಿ ರಾಜಕಾರಣಿ ಗಳ ಓಟ್ ಬ್ಯಾಂಕ್ ಹಿಂದುತ್ವ ವನ್ನು ಬಹಿಷ್ಕಾರ ಹಾಕೋಣ.

*ಸುಂದರ, ಸುರತ್ಕಲ್*

Dammam, May 29: A woman hailing from Mangaluru, who was waiting for repatriation amidst coronavirus lockdown in Saudi Arabia, passed away yesterday after a brief illness.

The deceased has been identified as Lateefa (55), wife of Abdul Azeez, a resident of Angaragundi near Baikampady on the outskirts of the city.

She had flown to Saudi Arabia in November 2019 along with her husband to spend some time with their NRI son in Dammam. They were supposed to return in April this year.

After the sudden cancellation of regular flights due to lockdown, they were waiting for the repatriation flights from Dammam to Mangaluru or Bengaluru.

Meanwhile, Lateefa’s health condition worsened and she was hospitalised. She passed away on Thursday without responding to any treatment. Last rites are expected to take place in Dammam.

Mangaluru, June 10: Former minister and Mangaluru MLA U T Khader has hit out at the Karnataka government for what he opined that it is misusing the Epidemic Diseases Act to target opposition parties. 

The statement comes in the backdrop of state government’s move to scuttle oath taking ceremony of KPCC president designate D K Shivakumar.

Asserting that the oath taking will be a grand affair, Mr Khader said that Congress will not be browbeaten by the tactics of the BJP.

Citing the blatant violation of all norms laid down under the Act by minister for health B R Sriramulu at Chitradurga earlier this month, Khader told reporters that the BJP is using the Act for its narrow political gains.

“KPCC has twice deferred swearing in ceremony of Shivakumar after being given the oral go ahead,” Khader claimed, adding the state government must explain to people the issue it has with the Congress organising this function.

Referring to the back-to-back virtual political rallies – one for Bihar and the other for Odisha – on Sunday and Monday that union home minister Amit Shah conducted, Khader wondered if the Act did not apply to the BJP leadership.
