Mangaluru, Aug 15: Nearly six weeks after the cold-blooded murder of RSS worker Sharath Madiwala that had triggered communal clashes in coastal district, the police have managed to arrest two accused including a small-time leader of Popular Front of India.

Addressing a press meet here on Tuesday, IGP (western range) Harisheshkaran announced the names of the accused as Abdul Shafi (36), a resident of Sajipamunnur, and Khaleelulla (30) from Chamarajanagar.

Abdul Shafi was picked up in Bantwal while Khaleelulla, who is the Chamarajanagar district unit president of the PFI, was picked up from his home district. The police have secured the custody of the accused after producing before a local court.

Rubbishing the rumours of arrest of third accused, IGP said that only two persons were arrested so far and all the other absconding accused will be caught soon.

He said that the police had interrogated around 30 people in marathon investigation. The probe teams had also visited Maharashtra, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Bengaluru, Shivamogga, Karwar, Hassan, Mandya and other places.

Harishekaran said the duo was picked up from their home towns and booked for conspiracy and harbouring the other accused. "They had provided logistics help to the assailants," he said adding that they have been produced before the court and sent to judicial custody.

More than 30 police personnel, which included senior police officials, were involved in the probe. "This was a complicated crime and that's why it took several days to make the arrests," added Harishekaran.

The development comes two days after DG-IGP R.K. Dutta told reporters in Bengaluru that police had achieved breakthrough in the case.

Dakshina Kannada Superintendent of Police Sudheer Kumar Reddy C.H. earlier said the type of investigation adopted in the murder of Sharath Madiwala was one used in 1990s when mobile phones were not in use. The perpetrators of the murder have not been using mobile phones.

Mr. Reddy also that the recent transfer of policemen following the disturbance in Bantwal had not impacted the investigation.

Madiwala was attacked by a gang on July 4 on B.C. Road. He breathed his last at a hospital in Mangaluru on July 7. The murder had triggered communal tension in the region.

More details are awaited

Hmm... Cops caught PFI members involved in murder of a legalized terrorist organization member. Good Job. But never trust authorities. A more detailed investigation required.

New Delhi, Feb 28: They could hear shots being fired, sense smell of property and vehicles being burnt and feel the stones being pelted. Despite the mayhem that unfolded just a few steps away from their doorsteps, many Muslim households did not feel unsafe due to their Hindu neighbours during the violence in Delhi earlier this week.

Tarannum, a resident of Chand Bagh, said she cannot thank her neighbour Nem Singh enough for saving 15 members of her family that fateful night of February 25. Singh, an auto-rickshaw driver, lives right across her house.

"I could hear the thumping on the door. Our neighbour came to rescue us and assured us that no harm would come to our family, " said Tarannum who lives in lane number 7.

"We thought khayamat has come. Our kids too got scared. Those indulging in rioting are just terrorists. Hindu brothers gave us shelter and saved us. How should I say that they are Hindus or Muslims? When we were under attack, these Hindu brothers provided us safety. We should not fight, " said Tarannum while recounting the horror.

She said a mob has no face, no religion. "I want to tell everyone mob has no name, no religion. Kaun sa pathar kisne mara kisko laga pata hai kya? Pathar ne mazhab dekha kya? (Which stone was thrown by whom, who was hit, does anyone know. Stone does not have a religion," she said.

Singh said he could not bear the wailings of his neighbour's kids.

"Dar to tha par apni gali mein kisi ko pareshan nahi hone dena tha. (I too was afraid but I could not have let them hurt my neighbours)," said Singh when asked if he could have also been attacked for giving shelter to Tarannum family.

"I told them that the rioters will have to go through us first. We all were equally scared," recalled Singh.

Jameel, another local resident, said that his Hindu neighbours were even ready to sacrifice their lives to save him from the ruthless terrorists hired by pro-CAA politicians to unleash violence against Muslims.

Pune/Bengaluru, Mar 25: e-Zest Solutions and Neurosynaptic Communications today announced the ReMeDi SCAN-CORONA platform, an innovative technology solution to help control the Novel COVID-19 pandemic.
As countries worldwide grapple to contain the spread and flatten the curve while treating the ones infected, the need of the hour is to deploy widespread screening and testing procedures to identify and isolate those showing symptoms.

"Mass screening and testing is the need of the hour. With the scarcity of healthcare professionals, there is a need of technology enabled platforms to do this at a large scale with minimal to no human intervention. The ReMeDi SCAN-CORONA brings together remote healthcare expertise and the power of emerging technology such as AI & ML, and promises to reduce the load on the healthcare system, so that timely care reaches the right set of people as fast as possible," said Shree Shingane - Founder and Managing Director, e-Zest Solutions GmbH.
The solution features a Corona-Screen Kit - a portable, lightweight kit that includes basic screening tools that seamlessly connect and feed data into a Patient Health Record (PHR) system without any manual intervention.
It also features a geo-tagging powered Screening app that, by importing and analyzing data from the screening tools as well as travel and medical history. The input from a third-party COVID-19 rapid testing kit further enhances the accuracy of the outcome.

We are proud to present this solution in collaboration with e-Zest," said Sameer Sawarkar CEO - Neurosynaptic.
