Mangaluru, Oct 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned themedia trial' in connection with the murder case of RSS worker Ruredresh, who was hacked to death on October 16 in Bengaluru.

sdpi“Even though the case is still in the investigation phase, some media houses with vested interests, to increase their TRP, are jumping to conclusions,” stated a release issued by there SDPI.

The release said, with the focus on "Freedom from hunger & freedom from fear", SDPI is tirelessly working for many years to uplift the backward classes, the Dalits, minorities and the exploited classes.

“SDPI being a political party which has total trust in the democratic system strongly condemns the killing of any human being. With total compliance to the secular nature of our constitution and in accordance to the election commission rules, SDPI has been gradually consolidating its vote bank which consists of victimized masses who earlier never had an option. This perhaps is not going down well with some communal minded parties who thrive on polarization in the society.”

“Before the RSS and BJP clamor for the blood of parties opposing them, they should revisit their own history. From the assassination of Mahathma Gandhi which happens to be the first terrorist attack on the soil of independent India to the murder of Praveen Pujari in Kundapura and also being accused in the many murder cases, they lack credibility to make such claims.”

“To mention a few such media manipulations - in Dakshina Kannada district, in the case of the serial killing of 20 Hindu girls, the RSS accused Muslim organizations. Finally, a teacher named Mohan Kumar was arrested in the serial killing. In the case of the murder of Harish Pujari in Bantwal, they tried to tarnish the image of SDPI. Finally, the investigation revealed bajrangdal's MithunKalladka&Bhuvith Shettywere arrested along with 3 other people.”

“In the Tipu Jayanthi celebrations in Madikeri last year, in the case of the death of VHP worker Kuttappa, a murder case was registered against our local leaders. The police investigation revealed that Kuttappa, running away from the commotion, slipped and fell to his death. This lead to the murder case against the president of SDPI city council being dropped and the case closed. On the same day fascist goons who were trying to cash in on the chaos shot an innocent Muslim youth by name Shahul Hameed leading to the arrest of RSS leaders Kavan, Bheeshma and Ramesh.”

“SDPI denies any connection between the case of Rudresh's murder. SDPI continues to defend that its name is being dragged into the case as a part of a larger political conspiracy to tarnish the image of a political party which is quickly popularizing as a pro-people's party in the political front,” the release said.

Bengaluru, Jan 2: Former chief ministers of Karnataka Siddaramaiah and H D Kumaraswamy on Thursday launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he embarked on a two-day visit to the state attend events in Tumakuru and Bengaluru. In a series of tweets, the Congress and the JD(S) leaders took a dig at Modi for his alleged failure on various fronts.

"You did not visit Karnataka when it was devastated by floods, you did not visit Karnataka when our farmers cried for help, but all of a sudden, when you want to launch your political propaganda, you remember the innocent people of Karnataka. Wah Modi Wah!!" Siddaramaiah tweeted.

In another tweet, the Congress leader claimed Karnataka is starved of Central government funds as there were no adequate flood relief, no GST revenue loss compensation and there was a delay in the transfer of grant-in-aid.

He further said, "Before attempting to fool our people, let the people of Karnataka know when they will get their due share!" He also sought to know from Modi why the 25 MPs from Karnataka have 'turned off' their engines.

"With 25 MPs from BJP and a state government with BJP, people hoped for a double engine. Instead, all BJP representatives have turned off their engines and have become sycophants to play a tune to your idiosyncrasies. Why, are they scared of you?" Siddaramaiah said.

Seeking an explanation on various incomplete projects, the Congress leader said, "Mr Narendra Modi, people are fed up of your lies and double-edged sword comments. We want your answer today about long-standing questions on: Kalasa Banduri Yojana, Belagavi border issue, exams in Kannada, Tulu & Kodava in 8th schedule, the list goes on." Kumaraswamy too minced no words as he went on the offensive against the Centre.

In his tweets quoting newspaper reports, he said Karnataka's coffer has dried up, financial position is in doldrums and the revenue has plummeted.

"What's the reason (behind poor economic situation)? The poor economic policies of the Centre. After swallowing the GDP and development of the country, the wrong policies have affected the state too," alleged Kumaraswamy.

Quoting reports, Kumaraswamy said the Centre has denied the state's share of revenue.

"About 5.44 per cent of state's share is yet to come from the Centre. This is step-motherly attitude of the Centre towards the state," Kumaraswamy tweeted.

Bengaluru, Jul 29: The Karnataka High Court’s division bench of Chief Justice Abhay Oka and Justice H P Sandesh today rejected an application that wanted Amulya Leona’s case to be transferred from Karnataka Police to the National Investigation Agency (NIA).

The bench, while observing that extraordinary jurisdiction can’t be exercised for transferring the case to the NIA, asked “What is so special that investigation should be transferred to NIA?”

The court, in its previous hearing, had questioned the maintainability of the petition seeking transfer of the sedition case against Leona to the NIA.

According to the petitioner, advocate Pavana Chandra Shetty, the case is a serious matter against national integration and unity and has not been investigated properly by the police. The state police also failed to file the chargesheet within 90 days, he said, and also asked for cancellation of her bail.

The bench asked the petitioner as to how a bail, already granted to a person, can be cancelled. “Is it not the indefeasible right of the accused to be released on bail if chargesheet is not filed within stipulated time? How can you make a prayer for cancellation of bail?”  the Court asked.

The counsel for the petitioner also stated that in cases of a cognizable offence, when the chargesheet is purposely not filed within the stipulated time, the matter will have to transferred to the appropriate authority.

The court responded to his contention by asking him how could the court override law and cancel the bail. “Where is the question of cancellation of bail? Can we override the law and say that bail should be cancelled?” said the bench.

Advocate Vishal Raghu had filed the petition for transfer of Leona’s case, who was accused of raising pro-Pakistan slogans at an anti-CAA rally on February 20 at Freedom Park. The advocate had blamed the probe team for not filing a chargesheet on time and has asked the state government to approach the higher court against bail granted to Leona.

Bengaluru student Amulya Leona was charged with sedition for her actions in the presence of All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen chief Asaduddin Owaisi. She was arrested by the Bengaluru police for allegedly shouting ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ slogans at an anti- CAA Protest in Bengaluru in February this year. On June 11, she was granted conditional bail by the Bengaluru civil court.

Her bail plea was earlier rejected by a Bengaluru court, after she had spent a three-month period in jail, stating that she may abscond if she is released. The sessions judge Vidhyadhar Shirahatti had also stated that if the petitioner is granted bail, she may abscond and may involve in similar offence which affects peace at large and hence her petition is liable to be rejected. The court had also noted that Amulya Leona is an influential person who may threaten and influence the witness and hamper the case in case of the prosecution and will abscond if released on bail.
