One of the rowdy-sheeters who tried to attack cop has been identified as Bhavith Raj. He was among the three miscreants who had tried to kill a Muslim mango trader in the wee hours of Sunday near Kulshekhar Chowki. Though the trader Umar Farooq was transporting mangoes in a goods truck, Bhavit and the two other saffronites had accused him of transporting cattle and assaulted with a sword. The policemen who later visited the spot had confirmed that Farooq was transporting mangoes and not cattle.

This morning a team of police waylaid the car of the accused in the case on a narrow road near Adyar. To evade arrest the occupants of the car allegedly attacked cop with knife and machete. However, the cops managed to arrest Bhavit from the car after opening fire in self-defiance. Two others managed to escape.

According to police sources, Bhavit is already facing eight criminal cases including murder attempts. Mangaluru city police commission Sandeep Patil visited the spot after the incident.

Well done Sir.  Such criminals should not be allowed to live.  Encounter is the only solution which will give good lesson to ther rowdies.   These rowdies had planned to kill the mango trader in the name of Cow.  However, the trader is lucky to survive.  Thanks for God.   The escaping rowdies should be arrested immediately and harsh punishment like encounter or life imprisonment should be given.   We have observed that some innocents are being shot by police whereas they did not shot down these rowdies.

Well done sir. Great job. But you could have done one thing. Instead of wasting bullet & govt. food in Jail, you should have encountered them. They deserve that. At least good people can live in peace.

Indore, Jan 24: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Kailash Vijayvargiya on Thursday said that he suspected that there were some Bangladeshis among construction labourers who worked at his house recently.

Their “strange” eating habits aroused suspicion about their nationality, the BJP general secretary said at a seminar in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) here.

When a new room was being added at his house recently, he found “eating habits” of some of the workers “strange” as “they were eating only `poha’ (flattened rice)”, he said.

After talking to their supervisor and the building contractor, he suspected that these workers were from Bangladesh, the BJP leader said.

When reporters questioned him later, Vijayvargiya said, “I suspected these workers were residents of Bangladesh. Two days after I became suspicious, they stopped working at my house. I have not filed any police complaint yet. I only mentioned this incident to warn people,” he said.

Speaking at the seminar, Vijayvargiya also claimed that a Bangladeshi terrorist was keeping a watch on him for the last one and a half years.

“Whenever I go out, six armed security personnel follow me. What is happening in this country? Will outside people enter and spread so much terror?” he asked.

“Don’t get confused by rumours. The CAA is in the interest of the country. This law will provide asylum to genuine refugees and identify intruders who are a threat to the country’s internal security,” he added.
