35-year-old Kalia Rafiq, a resident of Bappayithota, Uppala in Kasargod district, was facing around 45 criminal cases in different police stations across Karnataka and Kerala. He had spent many years behind the bars. Recently he was released on bail.

According to sources, the rowdy-sheeter was moving towards Mangaluru from his home district in a Ritz car when he was attacked by the miscreants. Gang rivalry is said to be reason for the coldblooded murder.

The gang followed three steps to kill Kalia Rafiq. First they rammed their mini lorry against his car near the petrol bunk. When he escaped and began to run, they gunned him down. Later, they alighted from the lorry and attacked him with a sword.

In the melee one of the aides of Kalia Rafiq suffered injuries and got admitted to a private hospital for treatment. More details are awaited.

Koppal, Aug 3: The activists of Popular Front of India (PFI) have won the heart of the people by performing the last rites of a local leader of Bharatiya Janata Party in Koppla district of Karnataka. 

Somashekhara Gowda, a senior BJP leader in Koppal’s Gangavathi died of covid-19. His family members were reportedly quarantined. His own party activists also were not ready to participate in the last rite due to the fear of coronavirus infection.

Following requests, a team of PFI comprised of district secretary Fayaz, and members Yaseen, Abdul Aalam, Shamid Razi and Husain Azarauddin performed the last rites as per Veerashaiva Lingayat traditions. 

Speaking to media persons PFI district president Zaheer Abbas lamented that people still have plenty of misconceptions about covid-19. “Due to the misconceptions, performing the last rites of those who die of covid-19 has become a challenge,” he said.
