Bengaluru, Mar 9: Lokayukta Justice P Vishwanath Shetty, who was stabbed by Tejraj Sharma, has told members of his family that the attacker did not even give him any time to react and, stabbed him.

Justice Shetty's son Shashi Kiran Shetty, senior counsel at High Court of Karnataka, told DH that his father told him on Thursday that he was no way connected with the complaints filed by Sharma.

"His complaint subjects does not fall under my jurisdiction. Lokayukta, Upalokayukta and assistant registrar have different jurisdictions. Basically he (Sharma) has some grievance that his complaint was closed. He came to have a discussion. Soon after entering, he started attacking me. I tried to defend myself,'' Shashikiran said quoting his father.

My father told me that, what evil caused him (Sharma) to take such step as there was no cause or reason. Was there something more than his grievance?. "Can anyone go to such an extreme extent for not given any chance, my father asked me,'' stated Shashikiran.

He said that, his mother Shakuntala V Shetty was still under shock and slowly recovering after she spoke to his father.

The police are yet to record the statement of Justice Shetty. Members of his family said that they are not hiring any Special Public Prosecutor.

United Nations, Jul 25: UN report on terrorism has warned that there are “significant numbers” of ISIS terrorists in Kerala and Karnataka, noting that the al-Qaida in the Indian Subcontinent terror group, which reportedly has between 150 and 200 militants from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar, is planning attacks in the region.

The 26th report of the Analytical Support and Sanctions Monitoring Team concerning ISIS, al-Qaida and associated individuals and entities said that the al-Qaida in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS) operates under the Taliban umbrella from Nimruz, Helmand and Kandahar provinces of Afghanistan.

“The group reportedly has between 150 and 200 members from Bangladesh, India, Myanmar and Pakistan. The current leader of AQIS is Osama Mahmood…, who succeeded the late Asim Umar… AQIS is reportedly planning retaliation operations in the region to avenge the death of its former leader,” it said.

According to the report, “One member state reported that the ISIL Indian affiliate (Hind Wilayah), which was announced on May 10, 2019, has between 180 and 200 members”.

It said that there are “significant numbers of ISIL operatives in Kerala and Karnataka states.”

In May last year, the Islamic State (also known as ISIS, ISIL or Daesh) terror group claimed to have established a new "province" in India, the first of its kind announcement that came after clashes between militants and security forces in Kashmir.

The dreaded terror outfit, through its Amaq News Agency, had said that the Arabic name of the new branch is "Wilayah of Hind" (India Province).

A senior Jammu and Kashmir police officer had rejected the claim.

Previously, ISIS attacks in Kashmir were linked to its so-called Khorasan Province branch, which was set up in 2015 to cover "Afghanistan, Pakistan and nearby lands".
