Mangaluru, Jun 24: Rubbishing the reports the arrest of Namo Birgade leader Naresh Shenoy as baseless rumours, Mangaluru city police chief M Chandra Sekhar said that cops will not hesitate to announce the arrest of an accused.
The commissioner of police, however, expressed confidence that the prime accused in RTI activist Vinayak Baliga murder case will be arrested soon.
“We have not arrested him so far. But, we will arrest him soon,” the top cop told Coastaldigest.com.
The clarification comes after a section of media including a few local new channels claimed that NaMo Naresh was arrested in Kerala last night and brought to the city by the sleuths of the city crime branch (CCB) of Mangaluru police.
Meanwhile, ACP K Tilak Chandra, who led the investigation into murder case, also made it clear that the arrest report was mere a rumour.
52-year-old RTI activist Vinayak Baliga was brutally murdered near his house at Kodialbail in the city in the wee hours on March 21.
The police have already arrested six persons in connection with the incident including Srikanth, Vineet Poojary, Nishit Devadiga, Shiva alias Shivaprasad, Shailesh and K Manjunath Shenoy, who has been released on bail.
On Thursday, the police filed a 770-page chargesheet under Section 302 of IPC at the Third JMFC court here in the case, wherein NaMo Naresh is named as prime accused.

many baliga will die, if police allows namo to travel freely.
arrest him and give him capital punishment
this police dept dont even catch the local rowdy. then how can they catch dawood,mallya. useless police dept.
Even if he caught by police, nothing will be going to happen!! he will get bail and will be released by court and will get hero welcome plus MLA or MP seat in next election!! this s what happening in our country in recent years.
hope cop will catch him soon
I don't have any faith that Baliga will get justice. Only these Supary Killer boys will be punished and main accused will come out clean. Slowly department will close the case, we all forget the incident.
He's hiding? His wife openly posts his and her picture openly in face book, the cops dont know where he is?
Naresh will be arrested soon and punished.
how long you can hide cowards
he will not get arrested also. mangalore police simple making mock on his arrest. highly influenced murderer.
