Mangalore, June 23: Mangalore City Police have arrested two persons for selling stolen property to a jewellery store here.


The arrested are Muhammad Shareef (28), son of late M Abbas and resident of Belma in Deralakatte village and Raees Muhammad Raja (21), son of Abdul Hameed and resident of Uliya road at Ullal.

They are accused of assisting Jamaluddin, the prime accused in the extortion case, who is in judicial custody after he was arrested at Bangalore International Airport on April 21 this year. He reportedly used to snatch chains from lone women.

Police said that both Shareef and Raees Raja assisted Jamaluddin in his crime by selling and mortgaging the stolen booty in the shops.

Police recovered the valuables weighing 81 grams worth Rs 1,70,000 including a rope chain (69.220 grams) and a chain of 12 grams from 'Shalimar Gold Testing' located on New Field Road, Car Street where they mortgaged them.

Police also said Jamaluddin was absconding in a foreign country after cases registered against him two years ago. However police succeeded in arresting him when he landed at Bangalore International Airport.

During the interrogation, he spilled the beans that his friends Shareef and Raees sold and mortgaged the stolen gold.

The operation carried out under the guidance of City Police Commissioner Seemanth Kumar Singh, Deputy Police Commissioner M Muthuraya, Assistant Police Commissioner Ravindra K Gadadi.

Police Inspector Vinay Gaonkar, PSI Poovappa, Shivaprakash and staff Mohandas Sasihithlu, Sathish Markanja, Pradeep Rai, Rajesh Alva, Janardana, Jayantha participated in the operation.

Udupi, Apr 7: The district administrations of Udupi and Uttara Kannada districts have appealed to the state government to request Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) to allow COVID-19 tests at Manipal’s Kasturba Hospital.

Kasturba Hospital was granted approval by the ICMR to conduct tests on samples to detect the novel coronavirus on March 24, however it rescinded it later.

Udupi district Deputy Commissioner (DC) G Jagadeesha stated that the Council did not provide any reason for the cancellation of approval; his office has requested the Chief Secretary to pressurise the Council in granting approval again.
