Bengaluru, Mar 23: Venkatesh Prasanna, the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Central Crime Branch, Bengaluru was on Tuesday briefly detained along with his team by Tamil Nadu police, who allegedly mistook them to be a gang of abductors.

avenkateshThe bizarre incident took place after Mr Prasanna and team arrested two youths— Syed Ali Ansar and Nasir Mustak Pasha, natives of Tiruvallur near Chennai — in connection with the Malleswaram blast case without informing the local police.

It is learnt that when the team of police in plain clothes from Karnataka raided the houses of the suspects, the local residents informed the local police thinking that it was a case of robbery and abduction.

Acting swiftly, a team from Tirunelveli police station rushed to the spot and took Mr Prasanna, his team members and the two detained youths into the custody.

Even though Mr Prasanna tried to convince the local police that he is also a police officer and showed his identity they initially did not believe his version, sources said.

Finally, Mr Prasanna contacted senior police officers in Bengaluru, who then spoke their counterparts in Chennai and facilitated the “release” of Mr Prasanna and team.

The Tamil Nadu police also allowed the Bengaluru cops to take the detained duo along with them for interrogation.

Bengaluru,  Aug 4: Karnataka has seen a substantial increase in COVID-19 recovery rate, which was 5.67 per cent in the last week, state Medical Education Minister Dr. K Sudhakar said.

"Every day there is an increase in recovery rate which is higher by 9.17 per cent in Bengaluru city. The overall recovery rate of the state by Sunday evening was 42.81 per cent and it is 35.14 per cent in Bengaluru," the Minister wrote in a tweet.

Minister Sudhakar also directed officials to resolve the issue raised by a woman who had written to him about her struggle to take possession of the body of her father in St. Johns hospital, Madivala.

The hospital she claimed was charging money to hand over the body.

"It is inhuman on part of the hospital to refuse handover of the body. I came to know about this incident in the media and responded immediately to help out the woman," Dr. Sudhakar wrote in his tweet.

Karnataka has so far reported 74,598 active COVID-19 cases, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

Mangaluru, Jan 15: Thousands of people on Wednesday boarded boats from Ullal's Kotepura to join a massive protest against the amended Citizenship Act and National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Adyar here.

People travelling through boats and steamers decorated with national flags, raised slogans during their journey through the Netravathi River.

The innovative mode of transportation was used by the protestors to reach the venue, as it not only saved time but was also more convenient for the fishermen, as large number of people from this community joined the protest.

The protestors docked their boats at the shore, which was barely 500 metres from the site of protest, being held at Shah Ground in Adyar.

The distance between Kotepura to the Shah Ground is approximately 15 kilometres but protesters would have to walk more five kilometres to reach the venue because of heavy traffic.

Due to protest, the national highway was also blocked and resulted in huge traffic snarls on routes leading to agitation site.
