Police interrogating NaMo Naresh in undisclosed location?

June 25, 2016

Mangaluru, Jun 25: Whether police have already nabbed Naresh Shenoy, the prime accused in the murder of 51-year-old RTI activist Vinayak Baliga and interrogating him in an undisclosed location?

shenoyd Even though police are calling this to be mere rumour, highly placed sources said that the police are delaying to announce the arrest as they get only 24 hours to question before producing him to court if they formally arrest him.

Sources said that Naresh was caught either in Kerala or Goa by Mangaluru police on Thursday or Friday. He had been at large since March 21, the day of the murder.

Incidentally, the police had filed a preliminary charge sheet in the case before the III Judicial Magistrate First Class in Mangaluru on Thursday, listing Naresh as Accused No. 1.

All the remaining six accused have already been arrested by the police and one of them is out on bail. Not revealing the place from where Naresh was secured, highly-placed sources in the police said that they were questioning Naresh in relation to the case.

Shenoy is the founder of Mangaluru unit of Namo Brigdae, later renamed as Yuva Brigade. Hence, he is popularly known as NaMo Naresh.

Vinayak Baliga was hacked to death by three persons near his house in Kodialbail. The police first arrested Vineet Poojary, Nishit Devadiga and Shiva alias Shivaprasad, who allegedly murdered Baliga.

Later police arrested photographer K. Manjunath Shenoy alias Manju Neereshwalya for allegedly helping Naresh in evading arrest. On June 18, police arrested Srikant, a close associate of Naresh, who was accused of hiring services of the three assailants.

The alleged inability of the Mangaluru police to nab the prime accused had led to severe discontent in Mangaluru as well as the State.

Several protests were held by activists led by rationalist Narendra Nayak and also by family members of Vinayak Baliga demanding arrest of Naresh.

They had accused elected representatives of being silent over the inordinate delay in arresting Naresh.

Naresh, who reportedly hoodwinked police by shifting his locations quite often, had filed anticipatory bail applications before the District Sessions Court and the High Court that were rejected. A complaint was filed by Naresh's family members before the Karnataka Human Rights Commission accusing the police of harassment.

He may be in Kalladka and guarded by Pumpwell

I heard that this fellow surrendered to police before police could arrest him. The Sanghis were aware of everything and they only leaked the \arrest\" news to media to exert pressure on police so that they announce the arrest and produce him before court soon. Otherwise kai kal pudi pudi.."

Ha ha...... terrorist or criminal ? Yaava jaati.....

some party's simply defaming nareshanna, he knows it if he ones caught by this police he will not return back, he will be charged in fake case and will be put behind bars for life time.

Ab tak chappan kar do ssaleko.....................

totally drama played by bjp govt to save him.

from the first investigation only i came to know that police force is protecting this criminal.

Why Mangaluru ignored under Vande Bharat Mission?

P A Hameed Padubidri

June 9,2020

Is it highly impossible to have flights to Mangaluru under Vande Bharat Mission to repatriate the stranded Mangalureans in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries? The present mood of the govt seems so are more politics and less actions are seen.

Amidst covid-19 lockdown, thousands of people from Mangaluru and surrounding areas are stranded in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries. They include visitors, job redundants, people who need immediate medical attention, senior citizens, pregnant women, students and people who are eager to visit their ailing family members, especially aged parents back at home. They are all stuck over there seemingly with hopelessness.

It's reported that around Karnataka NRIs (KNRIs) have registered their names under the Mission in the Indian Embassy in Riyadh alone. A majority among them are apparently from coastal districts of Karnataka who are eagerly waiting for the flights to Mangaluru.

The promises of elected representatives including MLAs, MPs, state and central ministers have remained unfulfilled so far. Now, things are being thrown from politicians to politicians and from politicians to the district authorities and vice versa. It's said that without proper quarantine facility in the district, the repatriation flights can't be approved to Mangaluru.

Rumours are doing rounds that the hotels in Mangaluru are not ready to facilitate for the KNRIs quarantines; the hoteliers collectively snubbed the instruction of the district authorities. Now, they are, as informed, persuading the hoteliers to allow for the quarantine facility.

If the hoteliers are stubborn to follow the instructions of the district administration, then why the authorities are not taking action against them under relevant statutory procedure including the revocation/cancellation of their licenses? Are they above the law or govt? For whom the authorities are waiting for? These questions are now being asked by the KNRIs and others.

Considering this condition, the central ministers and MPs are simply giving evasive answers without any forward thinking. Each one is simply uttering the same dialogue "no quarantine; no flights to Mangaluru".

A few KNRI businessmen in Saudi Arabia have already chartered flights to transport their stranded employees and others to Mangaluru with the approval of the govt of India. But, the inconsolable thing is that the govt didn't arrange this simple thing that too with the expense of the travellers.

The people-especially then distressed NRIs still remember late prime minister V P Singh and then external affairs minister I K Gujral for the repatriation of the NRIs during 1990s Gulf war. Everything was free of cost and immediate special flights were arranged to airlift the NRIs in the affected countries.

Now both Karnataka and India are ruled by the BJP. Then why the non resident Kannadigas, especially those in Saudi Arabia, are direly neglected at this point in time?. Why it's highly impossible for the govts to do this simple job for the KNRIs? The NRIs are always big assets to the govt. Also, the KNRIs remit billions of rupees to the state in the form of foreign exchange. But, they are now simply ignored. The state govt should immediately look into this dire situation of the Kannadigas in Saudi Arabia and act immediately to schedule special flights to Mangaluru from Saudi Arabia.

because we have MP nallinnan and in centre they consider muslim as enemy...we muslim must develop muslim community. today you give food & help kit tommorow they support BJP to harass muslim community.. even the educated ppl also same nowdays...look at UP doctor. if they dont give right to live in our own country then we must take it forcefully with or without blood

if they dont give right to live in our own country then we must take it forcefully with or without blood(1260 BAIBER the islamic worrier)

Really good & timely writing by P A Hameed,

Even if we pay the flights fares, why the flights are not granted to Msngaluru as there are good number of presence of the Kannadiga Non Residents in Saudi Arabia & other gulf countries. Such a simple service can't be done by our Govt of Karnataka & India. It's really a surprise at the inaction of our people's representatives especially coastal regions including central minister.
If Central & State Ruling by BJP than we can expect only this....

Dammam-Mangaluru first direct repatriation flight under VBM on June 21

coastaldigest.com news network

June 10,2020

Mangaluru, June 10: The first direct repatriation flight from Damma to Mangaluru International Airport under Vande Bharat Mission will be operated on June 21.

Thousands of people from coastal districts of Karnataka are stranded without flights in different parts of Saudi Arabia after the announcement of covid lockdown in March this year.

Even though the government of India launched Vande Bharat Mission to repatriate Indian expatriate through special flights, no flight was scheduled from Saudi Arabia to Mangaluru.

Several organisations had exerted pressure on the government of India and government of Karnataka to bring back stranded Kannadigas from Saudi Arabia.

With the sole intention of helping the stranded Kannadigas, a few philanthropists in Saudi Arabia last month formed an NGO called Saudi Kannadigas Humanity Forum under the leadership of Zakariya Bajpe and Sheikh Expertise.
