Bangalore, Aug 28: In a major reshuffle, the state government has promoted and transferred 31 Karnataka State Police Service officers.

Lokayukta Superintendent of Police Abdul Ahad Puthige has been promoted and posted as CID Superintendent of Police.

Abdul Ahad, who started his police career as a Sub Inspector, was elevated to the post of DySP in 2005. He served in Chikmagalur, Soraba and Doddaballapur as DySP before becoming the ASP in Bangalore. He also served in the Police Academy in Mysore in the rank of a subdivisional police officer.

As DySP, his efforts in bringing Naxalites to the mainstream were widely appreciated. In recognition of his distinguished and honest service, he was conferred with the Chief Minister's Medal in April 2010.

Born on May 10, 1977 as the fifth son of Moulana E M Shaffi and Rukhya couple from Palakkala, Puthige near Moodbidri, in Dakshina Kannada district, he studied up to 7th in a local school in Puthige. After completing his high school and PU studies in Jain Junior College, Moodbidri, he had his graduation from St Joseph's College, Bangalore.

He passed the Karnataka Administrative Service prelims in 1999 and in 2000 he passed the police sub inspector selection, standing 4th in the state.

In 2002, he cleared the KAS mains and in 2004 passed the final interview, thereby qualifying for the deputy superintendent of police post.

In 2005, Abdul Ahad passed the Indian Adminstrative Service (IAS) examination, standing 310th in the entire country, which is quite an achievement.

Being a soft-spoken, Abdul Ahad could make one wonder how, without a tough exterior look, he could be a successful police officer.

Abdul Ahad is also a Hafiz-e-Quran (one who memorises the whole Qur'an).

Bengaluru, Feb 14: Raja and Rani got married on Valentine's Day at Cubbon Park here.

The bride and the groom were decked up in bridal finery were heralded with traditional wedding music with nadaswaram and thavil (percussion) . The catch was that the married couple were horses.

Pro-Kannada activist and Kannada Vatal Party chairman Vatal Nagaraj performed the marriage ceremony of the two horses.

Nagaraj gave a dhoti and shirt to Raja (male horse) and a saree along with a taali (mangal sutra) to Rani (female horse).

Nagaraj has been conducting such ceremonies in the past too. Last year he had married off two sheep- Jacob and Carolyn in a similar ceremony.

The activist says he is all for love and urged anti-Valentine's Day supporters not to oppose lovers and their Valentine's Day celebration.

He also urged the Central government and the Karnataka state governments to give Rs 1 lakh and RS 50,000 respectively to the "lovers to support their love" by helping them get married.

Meanwhile, sweets were distributed to all the guests who had participated in the Valentine's Day marriage ceremony today.

Srinagar, Jan 14: Davinder Singh, deputy superintendent of police, who was arrested on Saturday along with two Hizb terrorists and a Hizb overground worker in Kulgam, has confessed to his interrogators that he had received Rs 12 lakh from the terrorists to ferry them to Jammu and then Chandigarh for their onward journey to New Delhi, IG (Kashmir) Vijay Kumar told the media here on Monday.

Intelligence sources said the terrorists planned to carry out attacks on Republic Day.

The DSP was suspended on Monday and is likely to be stripped of all his awards, including the President’s Police Medal for anti-militancy operations.

Davinder, who was interrogated by various intelligence agencies, including IB, military intelligence and RAW, besides the police, has disclosed that he had put up the terrorists at his Indira Nagar house in Srinagar, right next to the Army’s 15 Corps HQ, and thereafter accompanied them to Jammu in a Maruti car driven by the Hizb overground worker, intelligence sources claimed.

Meanwhile, sources said the Union home ministry may hand over the case to the NIA to find the real motive of the terrorists, Davinder’s links to terrorism and whether he had helped terrorists in the past as well.

The two Hizb terrorists arrested with Davinder are Naveed Babu alias Babar Azam, a resident of Nazneenpora in south Kashmir’s Shopian district, and his associate Rafi Ahmad Rather. The Hizb overground worker, identified as Irfan Shafi Mir, was driving the vehicle when it was intercepted by the police on Saturday. Irfan Shafi Mir has travelled to Pakistan five times on his passport.

Davinder, interestingly, was on duty ensuring security cover for the envoys of 15 countries who visited Srinagar at the Union government’s invitation last week.
