Mangalore, August 2: seven more persons have been arrested by the Mangalore police in connection with the homestay attack case where young boys and girls were manhandled by saffron activists at a birthday party at Morning Mist home stay at Padil on Thursday.

The arrested have been identified as Suresh Poojari (24), son of Subbu Poojari, resident of Veeranagara, Mithun (21), son of Sanjeeva Poojari, residing near Sooryanarayana Temple at Maroli, Sampath (23), son of Vasu Poojari, resident of Kandavara, Gurupura Kaikamba, Deepak (24), son of Bhaskar Kulal, residing near KEB at Maroli, Ramesh Kotian (40), son of late Gangadhar, resident of Perla, Hosagadde, Kannoor, Nithin (28), son of late Umesh Poojary, resident of Perla, Veeranagara, Kannoor, Jagadish, son of late Umesh Poojary, resident of Perla, Veeranagara, Kannoor

With this, the number of arrests made so far has risen to 22.


Earlier cops had nabbed 15 persons by name Rajesh, Taranath son of Gangadhar, Subhash Padil, Ganesh, Venugopal, Sandeep Shetty, Sharath, Tharanath (s/o Babu) Shailesh (23) of Bajal, Harish (25) of Alape, Chetan (25) of Nagori, and Sunil (24) of Thokkottu.

These accused face the same charges under which the remaining 15 accused have been booked, including dacoity, outraging the modesty of a woman, said city top cop Seemant Kumar Singh.

Given the sensational nature of the case, Seemant has replaced Ravish Naik, police inspector, Mangalore Rural (Kankanady) police station with T R Jagannath, assistant commissioner of police, Mangalore South sub-division as the investigating officer. Seemant said given the fact that it is a very important case, it was deemed fit that a senior police official takes over the investigation and take it to its logical end. "Other police officials will assist him," he said.

Mangaluru, Feb 2: A video of a woman rescuing a dog from a well in Mangaluru has gone viral on social media. The dog fell inside the well accidentally and the woman rushed to the spot to rescue it. The two minute seven second video has been shared on Twitter by a user, Mauna, and has ever since been viewed over 15,000 times.

The woman climbed down the well as other people attached a rope to her body during the rescue mission. Another rope was then thrown to her and she tied it around the dog after which it was pulled outside. The woman, thereafter, climbed outside the well with much difficulty.

"Bless the lady who saved the Dog," the user captioned the post.

Mangaluru, May 13: Kannadigas in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have sought additional flights to return to Karnataka during a video conference with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa here on Tuesday.

Noting that most of the ex-pats in UAE were from the coastal region, they urged the state government to ensure that most of these flights land in the Mangalore International Airport.

Many Kannadigas in the UAE were left unemployed due to the lockdown. “Many of them do not have the means to return to Karnataka and the state government should aid them,” representatives of various Kannadiga ex-pat groups urged the CM.

Yediyurappa said that the government has made all arrangements to bring back the ex-pats, and assured to fulfil all their demands.
