Mangaluru, Sept 28: A local court here has sentenced a man from Puttur taluk to rigorous life imprisonment after finding him guilty of murdering his own father nearly two years ago.

The convict is Aboobakker aka Monu, a resident of Hirebandadi near Uppinangady in Puttur of Dakshina Kannada district.

The verdict was pronounced on Thursday by the fifth additional district and sessions court judge, who also imposed a penalty of Rs 10,000. The convict will have to serve six months of imprisonment in case he fails to pay the penalty.

The incident took place on January 14, 2017. Monu and his father Adam duo had a dispute related to property. Adam had a shop at Uppinangady. Adam questioned his son when the latter was found in the shop.

This led to an argument between the two. After hurling abuses, Aboobakker hit his father on his head using an iron rod. Adam was immediately taken to a hospital in Puttur and later shifted to a hospital in Mangaluru. However, he succumbed to injuries on January 16, 2017.

Following this, Uppinangady rural police booked Monu under Sections 504, 506, and 302 of IPC. Public prosecutor Uday Kumar argued on behalf of the government.

Ballari, Apr 18: Hosapete town in Ballari district of Karnataka gasped in disbelief as it turned out that 11 members of one single family are positive for the coronavirus.

The whole town has been declared a containment zone and is being surveilled 24X7.

The family includes seven members whose tests returned positive today, three who tested Covid-19 positive on March 30 and one other member subsequently.

The seven who tested positive today had been negative when they were earlier tested along with the others.

They have all now been shifted to isolation wards at the District Hospital in Ballari.

Including this family of 11, Ballari has 13 positive cases so far, with one case each reported from Ballari and Siraguppa towns.

Startled by this sudden upsurge from Hosapete, the district administration has set up 16 fever clinics to screen people and six COVID care centres to treat positive cases. There are two dedicated COVID hospitals, one at Ballari and another at Torangallu in Sandur.

A team of psychological counsellors have been put on duty to provide support to the patients at the isolation centres.

Bengaluru, Aug 3: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee working president Satish Jarakiholi on Sunday said that as per the party sources, state chief minister BS Yediyurappa has got only six months' time and there are different teams working against Yediyurappa in their party.

The BJP high command has decided to bring down Yediyurappa, Jarakhioli said. He added, "Yediyurappa had asked BJP high command to appoint him Chief Minister for six months and due to corona, his period has been extended. But now their own party sources have revealed that he has got only another six months."

While addressing the issue of different statements by BJP leaders and ministership aspirants after five MLCs were nominated, Jarakiholi said "Yediyurappa followers are not actual followers. BJP high command has already decided to bring down Yediyurappa as per their own party sources."

While speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, he said there are teams formed in the names of deputy CMs and there are many who are working in their party against Yediyurappa.

He also said that it's up to their party what they think about Yediyurappa's tenure, whether they keep him as CM or remove him. Being in Opposition, now Congress is only working on strengthening the party, he said.
