Kasaragod, Mar 1: Security agencies have accessed a photograph of the body of Hafeesudheen, the youth from Padne in Kasaragod who was reportedly killed in an anti-Islamic State (IS) operation in Afghanistan last Saturday.

1missingIntelligence sources said that the relatives of Hafeesudheen had identified the photograph. Sources said the photograph, sent by Abdul Rashid Abdulla -the leader of the group from Padne -to one of his relatives showed injuries on his forehead besides one on his palm that he suffered in the IS camp a few months ago.

Hafeesudheen was among the 11 youths who left the country last June reportedly to join the dreaded terrorist outfit Islamic State.

Intelligence agencies have also collected details of the training given to Hafeesudheen at the IS camp. He was reportedly killed in a shell attack by Afghan security forces on the IS stronghold in Nargarhar. The youths, however, have not yielded to the persuasion of their families to return to India so far.

"The hardships they encountered in the Afghan camp seem not to have affected their resolve to continue in the path of jihad. Ashfaq, one among them, had messaged to his relative that he is disappointed over the loss of opportunity to become the first shuhada (martyr) for the IS from Kerala," an intelligence officer said.

Mangaluru, Feb 16: An elderly woman from Tamil Nadu was on Saturday reunited with her daughter and son after 14 years at the Mangaluru's White Doves destitute home.

"Mary only knew her name when she came here 10 years ago. Recently, she told us about her home town," Corrine Rusquinha, founder of White Doves told media.
Mary had gone missing 14 years ago from her hometown Kortampet in Tamil Nadu.

"Ten years ago, she was spotted by Mangaluru police who brought her to White Doves home late one evening. Initially, she could only speak Tamil, so it was presumed she was from Tamil Nadu. She was on psychiatric treatment," Rusquinha said.

A few days back, a visiting priest at the White Doves home spoke to Mary in Tamil and asked about her hometown.

"Surprisingly, she could recall the name of her hometown, following which the visiting priest contacted the pastor at Kortampet. Mary's family, including her daughter Gnana Anthony, who is a paramedic student in Coimbatore, was informed about Mary," she said.

Soon after, Gnana and her elder brother came to Mangaluru to take their mother back to their home.

Mary's husband Jhonson, who worked as a cook, had died within a year of losing his wife.
