Shivaprasad and Naresh Shenoy

Shivaprasad (28), a resident of Panjimogaru, was formally arrested on Wednesday, police sources said.

With this, the police have arrested three persons in the case. The police had arrested two supari killers – Vineeth Poojary and Vishith Devadia – on March 27.

However, the cops so far have failed to arrest the ones who plotted the murder and gave supari to the contract killers.

The police said that Shivaprasad was the one who hit Baliga hard on his head leading to the latter's death.

Shivaprasad was with the other accused, Vineet Poojary and Nishit Devadiga, when they attacked Baliga near his house on March 21.

Police sources said that they came to know about the involvement of Shivaprasad and Srikant (40), a resident of Shantinagara, Kavoor, during the interrogation of the arrested duo.

The police said that a search is on for Srikant who has been accused of hiring the three arrested persons for murdering Baliga.

Meanwhile, founder of Mangaluru unit of NaMo Brigade (Yuva Brigade) Naresh Shenoy has filed anticipatory bail application before the II Additional District and Sessions Judge Court here.

Mr. Shenoy, whom the police want to question in connection with the murder, has been reported to be at large since the day of the crime.

The court has now asked the Public Prosecutor to file objections to the bail application.

Bengaluru, Jun 18: Real estate continues to be a preferred asset class for investors amid the uncertainty emerging out of the pandemic, according to a report by National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) and Housing.com.

Titled 'Concerned yet positive - The Indian Real Estate Consumer (April-May 2020)', the report showed that the real estate consumer remains positive with regard to the economic scenario and income stability for the coming six months.

"Real estate (35 per cent) is still perceived as the preferred mode of investment, followed by gold (28 per cent), fixed deposits (22 per cent), stocks (16 per cent) and homebuyers are likely to slowly return to the market in the coming six months," it said.

Price-points of residential realty have remained muted for the past few years, but are still a key deterrent, with the perception of being still unaffordable, according to nearly half of the potential homebuyers surveyed, who are currently staying in rented accommodation.

A majority of respondents surveyed (73%) comprise 'first time homebuyers', who are looking to buy a 'ready-to-move-in-house' for end-use and are from the age group of 25-45 years. While 60% of respondents opined that for the next six months, they would prefer a ready-to-move-in property, 21% said they were okay with a property with a delivery timeline of maximum one year.

The survey was conducted in April and May 2020, through a random sampling technique for a fair representation across regions. The insights presented in the survey represent the view of more than 3,000 potential homebuyers.

New Delhi, Jul 29: Air Commodore Hilal Ahmad Rather has become a buzz name in Kashmir overnight. Hilal saw off the first batch of Rafale jets which took off from France to India on Monday. Among other things, he has also been associated with the weaponisation of the Rafale aircraft for acclimatisation to Indian requirements.

Hilal is presently India's Air Attache in France.

The career details of this officer of the Indian Air Force (IAF) read like the decoration scroll of the best flying officer anywhere in the world.

Born in the south Kashmir's Anantnag district to middle-class parents, Hilal's father, late Mohammad Abdullah Rather retired as a deputy superintendent of police (Dy SP) in J&K police department. He has three sisters and is the only son of his parents. Hilal studied in Sainik School in Nagrota town of Jammu district.

He was commissioned in IAF as a fighter pilot on December 17, 1988, became flight lieutenant in 1993, wing commander in 2004, group captain in 2016 and air commodore in 2019.

He graduated from defence services staff college (DSSC). He also graduated from air war college (USA) with distinction. He won the sword of honour in NDA. Hilal is also the recipient of Vayu Sena Medal and Vishisht Seva medal.

With an impeccable record of 3,000 accident-free flying hours on mirage-2000, MIG-21 and Kiran aircraft, Hilal's name will now forever be associated with Rafale in India.
