Mangaluru, Jun 26: Dakshina Kannada district police probing the murder of SDPI activist Mohammed Ashraf Kalai last week, arrested the prime accused Divyaraj Shetty on Monday. With this, the number of persons arrested in connection with the case rise to six. Police had arrested five persons on Saturday.prime

Divyaraj along with another rowdy sheeter Bharat Kumdelu had hatched the murder plot and participated in the brutal killing, SP C H Sudheer Kumar Reddy said.

Stating that efforts are on to nab Bharat, with whom RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat shared a dias, the SP said that Divyaraj will be interrogated with the other accused to ascertain their exact roles in the crime. "We are almost through with the interrogation of the other five accused, and will no longer need their custody for time being," he noted.

The jurisdictional court incidentally had remanded the five accused - Pavan Kumar, 24 of Pudu village, Bantwal; Santosh, 23 of Thumbe village; Shivaprasad, 24 of Bollari house, Thumbe; Ranjith, 28, resident of Pudu village and Abhin Rai, 23 of Thenkabellur village - to three days of police custody on Saturday. Police top brass giving out details of the incident had maintained the murder was committed with an intention to create communal unrest in the district.

Except Santosh all the five accused arrested on Saturday have criminal cases against them. Abhin Rai was booked during Tipu Jayanti violence in Bantwal last year and a case was booked against Pavan in 2012 for defiling a religious place in Bantwal to create communal tension. Police said the murder plan was hatched a month ago and it was discussed at various places.

Police custody is the safest place for them to get high protection knowing the fact that if they are out they will be beheaded soon. Killing innocents have become a trend for these goons.

If these criminals don't get what they deserve, then the public will teach how to be handled such cases.

Unless equally punish no end.

New Delhi, Mar 7: The Supreme Court on Friday stayed the bail granted by Karnataka High Court to 21 Popular Front of India (PFI) members accused in connection with violence that erupted during the protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in Karnataka's Mangaluru in December 2019.

On February 17, the High Court had granted bail to the accused on the bail petition filed by Mohammed Ashik.

A bench consisting Chief Justice S A Bobde issued notice to the accused on Friday after taking cognisance of the plea filed by Karnataka government against the bail granted by the High Court.

Appearing for the state government, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta criticised the High Court's order stating that at least 56 policemen sustained injuries during the violent protests.

Two persons identified as Jaleel (43) of Kudroli and Nousheen (49) of Bengre had died at a private hospital following the bullet injuries they sustained in an alleged police firing during a protest against CAA 2019.

Mysuru, Jan 19: Karnataka Rural Development and Panchyat Raj Minister K S Eshwarappa on Sunday claimed that Popular Front of India and Social Democratic Party of India have been indulging in anti-national activities.

Talking to media persons here, he said the government is mulling to ban and take action against PFI and its political arm SDPI.

It was recommended even during the previous government, but it was not taken seriously, he added.

He said that the BJP will ensure that all the MLAs who were instrumental in the party coming to power (the then-disqualified MLAs who joined BJP from Congress and JDS recently and won the bypoll subsequently) will not be let down and be given suitable posts in the government.
