Protest or celebration? Hindutva agitators dance as RSS activist battles for life

Mangaluru, Jul 7: The saffron activists not only violated the prohibitory orders and stage a ‘protest’ at BC Road in Bantwal taluk on Friday but also lifted RSS veteran Prabhakar Bhat Kalladka up, raised victory slogans and danced on the road.

In fact, the protest was organised by the Hindu Hitarakshana Vedike in the wake of recent murder attempt on an RSS activist in BC Road. 28-year-old Sharat, who was brutally stabbed by the anti-social elements last Tuesday, is still in a critical condition.

However, the bizarre attitude of the protesters who lifted Mr Bhat, danced and waved victory sign while many BJP leaders including Udupi MP Shobha Karandlaje and Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel courted arrest, created an awkward atmosphere.

As soon as the photos and videos of the so called protest went viral on social media, the trollers started making fun of the agitators. While some questioned whether the saffron activists were celebrating the cowardly attack on RSS activist, others slammed them for “disrespecting” the victim.

“Anti-social elements brutally stabbed an RSS activist in BC Road. A Muslim man shifted him to hospital while saffron activists hesitated to touch the victim. Now, the same saffron activists are dancing. What a shame!” wrote a local resident on her Facebook wall.

“Sharat’s condition is worsening in hospital. His family is shell-shocked. Unfortunately, those who organised protest in his name are celebrating,” lamented another local resident.

Ban PFI ? Is it a solution? They are lakhs of PFI members in Karnataka alone leave alone India.

They will join or make a new group or name.

Provocative speech by RSS leaders, Gou BD lynchers , arms carrying terrorist camp organiser Sri ram sena . If the police and the political camps had taken care of them long time ago , our beautiful Mangalore would remain peaceful.

Lack of political will from Congress banning and barring hateful speech is the main cause. Don't let Karnataka turn into hinduvta laboratory.

Take care of RSS, PFI also will disappear.

Thiruvanthapuram, Feb 21: Rape-accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal has been accused of sexual abuse by another nun. Police sources say that there is at least one more nun who has given a statement of sexual assault against the bishop.

This nun is a witness in the rape case registered against Franco Mulakkal. She is the 14th witness in the case and in her statement, she said that the bishop made sexually-colored and lewd remarks to her over the phone.

As per the nun, they were in communication via phone calls, chat and video calls for a period of two years from 2015 to 2017.

In the statement, the nun said that she kept quiet as she was scared of the bishop.

In her witness statement in September 2018, she said that in 2017, the bishop visited the convent she was in and hugged and kissed her.

Police say that the witness was not ready to file a complaint against the bishop. They had alerted the police in the jurisdiction and when the team met her, she refused to file a complaint. Hence a separate case wasn't registered against Bishop Franco

The first nun of Missionaries of Jesus had accused Franco of raping her multiple times at the Kuruvilangadu convent in Kottayam. The FIR in the case was registered in June 2018.

Then after protests, Franco was arrested on September 21, 2018.

The chargesheet in the case was submitted in April 2019. In the chargesheet, Bishop Franco Mullackal has been charged under various sections of the IPC: 342 (wrongful confinement), 376 (2k) (rape on a woman incapable of giving consent), 376 (2n) (causing grievous bodily harm during rape), 376 (c) (a) 377 (unnatural offence) and 506 (1) (criminal intimidation).
