Mumbai, Feb 5:  A local esplanade court in Mumbai acquitted five persons who were arrested soon after serial blasts in Mumbai’s local trains. The police had arrested them for being members of banned organisation SIMI and indulging in unlawful activities, however the police could not prove charges against them.mumbai

Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Mahesh R. Natu held that the crime branch failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt and acquitted Irfan Sayed, Najeeb Bakkali, Firoz Ghaswala, Mohammed Ali Cheepa and Imran Ansari.

Unit 11 of detection crime branch in Mumbai had arrested all these accused after a police officer had received a tip off that Irfan was a member of SIMI and he was indulging in anti-social activities. The police kept a watch for sometime and arrested these five persons.

On the other hand, defence lawyers Ishrat Ali Khan, Tahwar Khan Pathan, Jamal Khan, Styaram Gaud and Aftab Qureshi claimed that the police falsely implicated the accused and allegedly planted articles that were shown to have been seized from the accused.

According to advocate Pathan, the major problem with this case was that police obtained faulty sanction to impose UAPA. The defence pointed out that the articles seized from the accused were not sealed and hence were not acceptable as evidence in the court of law.

After hearing both the sides the court acquitted all the five accused.

It's not a big news when the court acquits innocent Muslims, But, Big news, Headlines, News flash etc., when innocent Muslims are framed as terrorists.

Mangaluru, Feb 12: More than 7,000 people at Mangalore International Airport (MIA) and over 1,000 at the New Mangalore Port (NMP) have undergone thermal screening for the novel coronavirus in the past few days, a taluk health official said on Wednesday.

A few more ships are scheduled to arrive at the port and all precautionary measures to check the ship’s passengers and crew are ready, he said.

Soon after a positive case of deadly pathogen surfaced in Kerala, the district health officials here actively started monitoring all entry points in the bordering district. 

Apart from Mangaluru, there is bus connectivity to Puttur, Sullia, Bantwal, Dharmasthala and Subrahmanya from Kerala. More than eight to 10 trains arrive at Mangaluru daily from Kerala.

Hence, it is impossible to take up screening of all the vehicles arriving from Kerala, sources in District Health and Family Welfare said.

Bengaluru, Jul 7: Former Health minister and Congress MLA UT Khader has alleged that the state government has purchased coronavirus equipment for more than twice the actual price.

"Rs 500 sanitizers have been purchased for Rs 900 and Rs 9,000 has been paid to Rs 1200 for the thermal metre by the government. Instead of asking to allow him to work, Mr B Sriramulu, being health minister he must work for the people," he said.

He said that three months have passed since the pandemic started but the state government is still struggling to send ambulances to needy patients.

"Instead of ambulance it is sending final rights vehicle to needy people," Khader said.

According to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, there are 23,474 coronavirus cases in Karnataka including 13,255 and 372 deaths.
