Mangaluru, Sep 15: In an unexpected development, the Karnataka high court on Thursday granted conditional bail to NaMo Brigade leader Naresh Shenoy, the prime accused in Mangaluru-based RTI activist Vinayaka P Baliga murder case.

shenoy39-year-old NaMo Naresh', who is a prominent businessman in Mangaluru, was formally arrested by the Mangaluru CCB on June 26 more than three months after 52-year-old Baliga was hacked to death in the heart of the coastal city on March 21.

On Thursday, allowing the bail petition filed by NaMo Naresh, Justice B Sreenivase Gowda directed the petitioner to furnish a personal bond for Rs 2 lakh with two local sureties to the satisfaction of the local court.

The court asked him to surrender his passport as well as visa and also not to contact authorities at Venkataramana temple or visit the same.

The petitioner has been further asked not to leave the jurisdiction of the local court without prior permission and also mark attendance before the concerned police station every Sunday and also co-operate in the investigation of the case.

NaMo Naresh, who was originally arrayed as A7 in the case as he was absconding for almost three months, has been made A1 in the charge-sheet filed before the local court.

The family members of Baliga have expressed shock over the development. An electrical contractor by profession, Baliga, through RTI had unearthed many controversial information related to electricity theft and unauthorized constructions in Mangaluru city. He had also raised the issue about alleged irregularities in the affairs of the famous Venkataramana temple in Mangaluru. More details are awaited.

There is no proof for Naresh bhai's involvement in this murder case. Mangalore police has found out the fact about the involvment of a person called Abdul Kareem in this murder case. he should be arrested immediately. But this pro-Muslim and anti-nationalist Congress govt is pressurising police to save him and fix innocent hindus. Wait for two more years. BJP will bounce back and rule karnataka. It will be a kedugaala for anti nationals.

This is really shocking. How can the prime accused in such a cold blooded murder get bail in three months? He is not only murderer. He misled police, destroyed evidence... I though court will pronounce death penalty within a year. This development is a black spot on Indian judiciary.

Bengaluru, Feb 20: Leaving the organisers of an event to protest against the CAA, NRC and NRP here red-faced, a young woman on Thursday reportedly raised "Pakistan Zindabad" slogan in the presence of AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, who denounced her action and asserted "we are for India".

The woman, identified as Amulya, allegedly asked people to shout with her "Pakistan Zindabad" after the organisers of the event under the banner of "Save Constitution" invited her to address the gathering soon after Owaisi came on the stage.

Soon Owaisi rushed to snatch the mike from her hands and was joined by others who tried to remove her from the state.

But the woman was adamant and raised the slogan again repeatedly. Later, the police stepped in and removed her from the dais.

Owaisi then addressed the gathering, saying he did not agree with the woman.

"Neither me nor my party has any link with her. We denounce her. The organisers should not have invited her here. If I knew this, I would not have come here. We are for India and we no way support our enemy nation Pakistan. Our entire drive is to save India," the AIMIM MP said.

JD(S) corporator Imran Pasha claimed she was planted by some rival group to disrupt the event.

The woman, he said, was not in the list of speakers and demanded that the police investigate the matter seriously.

Sources say Amulya hails from Chikkamagaluru and her parents have always been in the forefront of taking on government and its policies for well over a decade. 

As per local TV reports, the student was taken to Upparpet police station, but later shifted to an undisclosed destination for more questioning.

Bengaluru, July 29: The Central Crime Branch arrested four international drug peddlers belonging to Kerala and recovered drugs worth Rs 1.25 crore from them, said Karnataka Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday.

"We have started a war on drugs. Our agenda is to curb the drug mafia not only in Bengaluru, but in entire Karnataka. Many people are involved in the drug mafia. They are targeting students, other states, and international students who can spend and afford to become victims," said Bommai.

The recovered items include 2,000 kg LSD strips, 110 grams MDMA Cristol, 10 ecstasy tablets, 5 kg Ganja, five cell phones, weighing machine and pouches.

"When we raided a house in Soladevanahally police station area, we arrested Shahad Mohammed, Azmal, Ajin KG Verghese and Nitin Mohan. All are from Kerala and we will arrest their contacts as well. They are involved in the dark web mafia," Bommai said.

He said the peddlers were using post offices and couriers for their business.

"I'll speak to the central government, the home ministry and postal department, and other issues related to this mafia. Canada, Netherlands, and other nations are also involved in this mafia," said the state home minister.

"People from influential backgrounds are also involved in this mafia, but our objective is zero tolerance. We are using our intelligence. Drugs are coming from other states like AP, Goa, and other states," he said.
Bommai said he was personally addressing this case and appealed for support from parents, schools and colleges.

"I'm addressing this issue personally because it's important to curb the drug mafia. I need support from schools and college managements and parents. I'll also call college and hostel managements before colleges start. We will make managements responsible," he said.
