Kashimji murder case witness arrested, remanded to CoD custody

July 5, 2011
Mangalore, July 5: A city based advocate, who was a witness in Naushad Kashimji murder case, but, later accused of having links with underworld and giving supari to kill another advocate, on Tuesday remanded to Corps of Detectives (CoD) custody for two days, by Second JMFC Court here.

Advocate Umar Farooq was arrested by CoD on Monday after he landed at Devanahalli International Airport in Bangalore. He had left the country two years ago and stayed in Dubai.

Then Dakshina Kannada police had issued a look out notice against Advocate Farooq.

Soon after his landing, the Airport authorities, informed the Mangalore City Police Commissionerate, who in turn referred to CoD, who rushed to Bangalore.

Before bringing him back to Mangalore, CoD produced Advocate Umar Farooq before a local court in Bangalore on Monday.

He is facing charges of having underworld links (association with Madoor Isubu), providing supari to Madoor Isubu to kill city based Advocate Harish Rai and raising funds for organisations like KFD.

However, according to advocate Purushotham Poojary, Umar Farooq is an innocent, and police have fixed him in false cases, because he was a witness in the brutal murder case of Advocate Naushad Kashimji.

Davanagere, Jan 9: Residents of SVR colony of Channagiri Taluq here on Thursday built a temple in the memory of a male monkey, who died here 'unexpectedly'.

A group of monkeys entered the SVR colony around three months back. The monkeys have never disturbed anybody in the area and they used to play with children living in the colony.

Locals said that the monkeys are very obedient to them.

Unfortunately, one of the monkeys died suddenly on Wednesday, causing distress among people who were very fond of him.

Showing their love for the deceased monkey, locals performed his final rite according to Hindu tradition.

Later, the residents approached the president of the village Panchayat to allot funds to build a temple in the monkey's memory.

The construction of the temple has already begun in the area at the same place where the monkey's funeral was conducted.
