Attack on Dayananda Pai; two more suspects held

Bangalore, November 1: The city police have arrested two more suspects involved in attack on real estate magnate Dayanand Pai in Basavanagudi on October 16.

 

They are Subhash Shikari, who allegedly opened fire at Mr. Pai's car, and Santosh, a technician in a regional news channel who was regularly in touch with the attackers.

 

According to police, Subhash along with his associate Vignesh, followed Mr. Pai on two motorcycles from his house in Sahakarnagar and shot at the car near the National College flyover.

 

A police team which verified the CCTV footage and the call details zeroed in on Vignesh. Interrogation led the police to pick up Subhash and Santosh who reportedly confessed to have executed the attack at the behest of gangster Hebbet Manja as a warning to Mr. Pai over a land dispute.

 

Both men have been taken into custody for further investigations. “We are trying to get details about the whole operation including the source of money and arms,” a police officer said.

Mangaluru, Mar 10: Tension prevailed in the city after an international flyer quarantined at the District Wenlock Hospital walked out of the facility.

The passenger, with a recent travel history to high-risk countries, refused to cooperate with health officials. The day-long drama ended when the district administration intervened and the flyer agreed to get himself re-admitted.

Deputy commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh said the passenger had fever and was sent to an isolation ward. “The passenger is cooperating with the treatment and samples have been collected for testing,” she said. The samples will be sent to a testing centre in Bengaluru.

Sources told  that rude behaviour by staff at Mangalore International Airport may have angered the passenger and he walked out of the quarantine facility.

She said if passengers show reluctance to be screened, they should first be counselled and allowed to get themselves admitted to a hospital of their choice with quarantine facility. If they still refuse to cooperate, they will have to be hospitalised forcefully, she added.
