Mangaluru, Jan 29: A day after a senior leader of Vishwa Hindu Parishad called upon the Hindus to support the extremists who killed an innocent Muslim man earlier this month in Mangaluru, several organisations and political parties on Monday demanded his immediate arrest.

Speaking at a book release function to in the city on Sunday, Jagadish Shenava, Dakshina Kannada district unit president of VHP, had called upon the Hindu society to support the accused persons involved in the murder of Ahmed Basheer, an innocent Muslim man who was hacked to death by saffron activists earlier this month in the city. He also stated there is nothing wrong in murdering any innocent Muslim in retaliation for the murder of a Hindu.

Reacting sharply to the statement, the local unit of Popular Front of India said that killing innocents for political gains is part of Sangh Parivar’s agenda.  In a statement issued here, the PFI said that Mangaluru city police should prove its efficiency by registering a suo motu case against the hate speaker and arresting him immediately. “This is not the first time. Mr Shenava has tried to disrupt peace in the past too. He is a threat to the communal amity and peace. He should be arrested and imprisoned,” it said.

Meanwhile, Social Democratic Party of India said that the Mr Shenava’s shameless statement proves that the murders of Deepak Rao and Basheer were a part of a major conspiracy by communal forces to create violence and unleash bloodshed in the region ahead of assembly polls.

Democratic Youth Federation of India State president Muneer Katipalla said that Mr. Shenva should be arrested for spreading communal hatred. He said that the state government should immediately withdraw security cover given to Mr Shenva.

Mr Katipalla said that the statement clearly showed the involvement of communal forces in the revengeful murders on communal lines reported in the district.

Terming Mr Shenava’s statement as the height of shamelessness and barbarism, Dakshina Kannada District Congress Committee said that police should take necessary action against him and practically give a strong message to those who support killers.

Mumbai, Jul 16: Poet-activist Varavara Rao has tested positive for Covid-19. The 80-year old, named as accused in the Elgar Parishad case, was shifted to state-run JJ Hospital from Taloja central jail where he was lodged after he complained of dizziness. The hospital conducted tests including one for Covid-19 the results for which confirmed that he is positive.

Dr Ranjit Mankeshwar, the dean of JJ Hospital said, “He has shown no symptoms of Covid-19 so far. He has no breathing difficulty and is stable. We will soon shift him to a Covid hospital.” Rao is likely to be shifted to St George hospital.

Last week, Rao’s family had held a press conference after receiving a call from him from prison. His family had then said that his condition was deteriorating and he should be provided immediate medical aid. He was earlier shifted to the hospital when he fell unconscious in jail in May but was discharged within three days. The family had said that he was not provided proper medical treatment.

Last month, a special court had rejected his interim bail plea where he had cited his susceptibility to the virus due to his age and other medical conditions. The court, however, had said the superintendent of prison has been directed to take appropriate measures in such cases where medical attention is required. Before he was shifted to the hospital on Tuesday, Rao was admitted to the hospital ward of the jail and as he had been unable to do basic chores without depending on other inmates.

An appeal against the special court’s order is pending before the Bombay High Court. The plea is likely to be heard tomorrow.
