Mangalore, February 1: Mangalore assistant commissioner Prabhuling Kavalikatti on Monday suspended the Kavoor village accountant Shivanand Natekal for misbehaving with a Dalit woman.

Natekal was arrested last week under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act on the charge of seeking sexual favours from Nethravathi, an SC woman.

Nethravathi had applied for a caste certificate with Kavoor village accountant, but her application was not recommended as she was from Chikmagalur district.

Shivananda called her several times and told her that he would recommend for the certificate if she fulfilled his demands and sought sexual favours to do the needful.

She then approached the Dalit Sangharsh Samiti (DSS) for help. Subsequently, a trap was laid. Shivananda came to her house in Gandhinagar area of Kavoor on last Thursday afternoon and started making advances towards her when her husband and some members of the DSS arrived there and caught him and handed him over to the police after thrashing him.

Bengaluru, Jul 22: On Wednesday morning starlet and Bigg Boss 3 contestant Jayashree Ramaiah sent social media into a tizzy with an update that read, “I quit. Goodbye to this f*****g world and depression.” Friends and acquaintances immediately began reaching out to the actor asking her to return their concerned calls and desist from taking any extreme steps.

“Jayashree has been battling depression for a while now. She had family issues and was also concerned about the lack of work,” shares actor Ashvithi Shetty. The Ramachari twins were in touch with Jayashree since they met at a celebrity cricket match four years ago. “She has shared several times about how low she’s been and I would try to cheer her up. But the problem was that she’d keep changing her phone number so often that it became difficult to keep track of how she was doing,” states Ashvithi.

Around four months ago, Jayashree moved into her own home and mentioned to her that she was happy with this new development in her life. “But she went retreated again and a few days ago, I messaged her on social media and she said she was doing fine. So I was shocked to see this update on Wednesday morning,” avers the actor. Repeated calls finally elicited a message from Jayashree that she was getting admitted to the hospital. “But I also got contradictory information that she had been discharged and had been taken to the hospital again but she was refusing to go inside. I am awaiting more clarity on the issue,” sums up Ashvithi.
