Mangaluru: Man held with 26 passports is travel agent; all documents genuine

August 18, 2016

Mangaluru, Aug 18: A Dubai-bound NRI, who was detained at Mangaluru International Airport for carrying 26 passports belonging to different persons, was in fact a travel agent.

abdulla1 Police officers, who subjected Abdulla (43), a native of Taliparamba in Kannur district of Kerala, to a prolonged interrogation, told Coastaldigest.com that all the 26 passports recovered from him were genuine.

He was detained after passports belonging to different persons were found in his baggage during immigration check, before the agent was to take a Jet Airways flight to Dubai at 11.30 p.m. on Tuesday. Later he was handed over to Bajpe police.

The police said that another travel agent, Sadakatullah from Dubai, sought help from Abdullah in arranging Haj travel for his 26 customers— 24 were Indians and US citizens.

Sadakatullah collected passports of his customers and handed them over to Abdullah before Abdullah left for Kerala via Kozhikode airport on August 5.

Incidentally, Abdullah managed to clear the security check at Kozhikode airport on that day. He approached a travel agency in Kanhangad, Kerala, to arrange for Haj pilgrimage for the 26 passport holders.
As the agency expressed helplessness in arranging for the services, Abdullah decided to return to Dubai with the passports from the Mangaluru Airport on Tuesday. However he was caught.

Police Commissioner M. Chandra Sekhar said that even though Abdulla had no intention to cheat anyone, being in possession of someone else's passport will be considered as an illegal act. He also confirmed that there was no fake passport with him.

The police have booked him under Section 12 (1) (d) of the Passport Act and continued investigation to find out whether there was any travel fraud in this case.

Lakeman Kempegowda in critical condition; only praises don't help: HDK to PM

News Network

July 25,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 25: Kalmane Kamegowda, the lake man who was recently praised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a recent Mann Ki Baat, is in serious condition after he tested positive for COVID-19, former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said on Saturday.

"The health condition of Lake Kamegowda is serious. It is our responsibility to save him. I demand that the state government make appropriate arrangements for emergency treatment," Kumaraswamy tweeted.

"The Prime Minister also praised him in Mann Ki Baat. Chief Ministers expressed appreciation. Only praising doesn't help him at this point of time. The government needs to come forward to treat him in a good hospital when he's sick," he said in the following tweet.

Kamegowda of Dasanadoddi village in Malavalli taluk had drawn the attention of the Prime Minister in the 66th 'Mann Ki Baat' for constructing ponds to conserve rainwater during the summer.

Responding to Kumaraswamy's remark, State Medical Education Minister Dr Sudhakar K said that he has already called up the Mandya Medical College and directed the hospital to admit and treat Kamegowda.

"As soon as I noticed the seriousness of Kamagowad's health, I called the director of the Mandya Medical College and informed him that he should be admitted to the hospital and treated. I pray to the Lord that the Kamagowadas who inspire the whole country will heal soon," Sudhakar K tweeted.
