NaMo Naresh not yet arrested; we will catch him soon: Mangaluru police chief

nareshMangaluru, 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.

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.

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 told reporters that officials, including the city police commissioner Harsha, would be summoned to depose on the violence which led to police firing that killed two people.

Mangaluru (North) Assistant Commissioner K U Belliappa, who is the nodal officer for the police department, has given a list of 176 policemen who are ready to adduce evidence in the hearing.

The police officers would be summoned in phases.

The next hearing is on February 25.

Former city Mayor K Ashraf, who is under treatment in hospital, has also provided a written statement.

The remaining members of the public can provide evidence during next hearings, he said.

On December 19, two people were killed in police firing as protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) turned violent here.

Two people received bullet injuries in the firing and they later succumbed at a hospital, the police had said.

Bengaluru, Jul 27: The Karnataka government on Sunday directed the Director General of Police Praveen Sood to submit a detailed report on the internal security following the United Nations' observation that international terror outfit IS was active in the state.

The UN report stated that Al-Qaeda in the Indian subcontinent, which reportedly has between 150 and 200 members from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar, was reportedly planning attacks in the region.

It also warned that there were 'significant numbers' of ISIS operatives in Karnataka and Kerala. Reacting to the UN report, Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai said the state government has taken a serious note of the report on the activities of IS in the state.

The state government is in touch with the Centre and the neighbouring states to keep a close watch on the activities of suspicious people and their supporters.

"In this context, it has been decided to strengthen the internal security of the state. The Director General of Police has been asked to submit a detailed report," Bommai said in a release.

The state is also keeping a strict vigil on all those entering Bengaluru from other states, the Minister said. He recalled that the state police had arrested several members of Al-Hind organisation in January last and Jamaat- ul-Mujahideen from Bangladesh in 2018 and 2019. He added that the National Investigation Agency is investigating the case of JMB.
