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.

Bengaluru, Jun 17: Amid rising COVID cases in the past two weeks, the Karnataka government is planning to increase testing capacity to 25,000 samples a day, said a minister.

"Due to increase in cases in the last two weeks, the government is trying to scale up testing to 15,000 to 25,000 samples per day," said Medical Education Minister K. Sudhakar.

He said people living in crowded places, sanitation workers, street vendors, healthcare workers, police and other frontline staff would be extensively tested.

"It has also been decided to mandatorily test all those who have symptoms of Influenza Like Illness (ILI) and Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI)," he said.

Similarly, all people over 50 with ILI symptoms will be tested.

The health department will also randomly test samples in old containment zones to make sure that the infection is not recurring.

Currently, there are 72 Covid testing labs in the southern state, 41 government operated and 31 private labs.

However, for a few days, the number of Covid tests in the state have plummeted.

On Monday, the health department has tested only 5,362 samples across the state.

Likewise, on Tuesday, only 7,936 samples were tested, diverging from earlier weeks when around 10,000 cases were tested on an average.

In all, 4.57 lakh samples have been tested so far, of which 4.39 lakh have tested negative.
