Belagavi, Mar 5: Days after a young Hindutva activist was arrested in Udupi for recording and spreading a pro-Pakistan video to defame Muslims in the region, the Karnataka police have cracked a similar case in Belagavi district by arresting another miscreant.

The accused is Nagaraj Mali, a resident of Kankanwadi in Ramdurg taluk. According to police, he hacked the Facebook of his Muslim friend Mohammad Shafi Benne of Ramdurg and posted pro-Pakistan messages with malicious intent.

During interrogation Nagaraj admitted that he committed the crime to take revenge against his friend after he refused to lend money. He was remanded to judicial custody.

Mohammad Shafi, who was shocked to notice anti-India and pro-Pakistan messages on his Facebook wall, had filed a complaint, saying his account was hacked. Subsequently, it came to light that the posts had been uploaded from a device other than his mobile phone.

Addressing media persons on Monday, Superintendent of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy said the police, on Sunday evening, detained Nagaraj, who was running a computer centre and had created the Facebook account for Mohammad Shafi. After suffering losses Nagaraj closed down the centre. He was earlier a Congress worker but gradually became closer to Hindutva groups.

Mohammad Shafi had given monetary assistance to Nagaraj, but distanced himself from him after the latter sought more money. The police have booked a case under various sections of the IT Act.

Thiruvananthapuram, Apr 24: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Thursday said that there is no community spread or the expected phase three spread of coronavirus in the state so far but the threat continues.

Speaking to media persons here on Thursday, Vijayan said that Kasargod, Kannur, Kozhikode, and Malappuram districts will be in the red zone with full restrictions.

"All the other ten districts in the State will be in the orange zone. With the detection of new cases today, the status of Kottayam and Idukki districts have been changed from green to orange. The district administration will decide on the hotspot areas to be closed," he said.

He said there would be an increase in the number of random tests in the red zones.

"In an effort to confirm that there is no community spread in the State, random antibody tests would be conducted among health workers, police personnel, home delivery persons, volunteers and migrant labourers," he added.

The Chief Minister said that COVID-19 labs set up at the Pariyaram Government Medical College at Kannur and the Kottayam Medical College have got the approval from the ICMR for coronavirus testing. The lab at Kannur Medical College will start functioning from Friday.

The UV sterilised lab, spread over 2,200 sq ft is equipped with four real-time PCR machines. In the first phase, this lab will be able to do 15 tests per day, which will be gradually increased to conduct 60 tests in the next phase.

"With the opening of these two new labs, tests to detect COVID-19 will be conducted in 14 government labs in Kerala. Apart from this, there are two private labs also in Kerala which are doing these tests. Since the number of coronavirus cases is again increasing in the State, the government has decided to procure ten real-time PCR machines to ramp up testing," he added.
