SC considers to take on record purported clip of BSY

New Delhi, Nov 5: The Supreme Court on Tuesday said that it would consider taking on record a disc in which Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa allegedly made remarks about BJP backing the disqualified Congress-JD(S) legislators to topple the HD Kumaraswamy-led government.

A bench headed by N V Ramana took cognizance of it after lawyer Kapil Sibal mentioned the matter before it for hearing and sought that the alleged tape be taken into record.

In the video which has gone viral, Yediyurappa purportedly said that the decision of the 17 MLAs to resign, which led to the fall of HD Kumaraswamy-led government in July, was taken by the central leadership of the BJP and that the party workers should honour the "sacrifice" of the rebel MLAs.

The video was allegedly shot during his meeting with the party leaders in Hubli on October 26.

The 17 MLAs were disqualified in July by Ramesh Kumar and barred from contesting polls for the duration of the assembly, which ends in 2023. It had led to the fall of the Congress-JD (S) coalition government in the state.

The bench has already reserved the order on the petition filed by the disqualified legislators in which they had challenged their ouster from the Assembly under the anti-defection law.

Mangaluru, Feb 27: An utterly unprofessional thief, who fell asleep after breaking into a house, was caught by the house owner and handed over to the police in the coastal district of Dakshina Kannada.

The hilarious incident took place on Wednesday in the one-storey, tiled-roof house owned by Sudarshan at Ullas Junction under the limits of Uppinangady police station.

The thief, who gained entry into the house by removing the roof-tiles, has been identified as Anil Sahani, a native of Bihar’s Majipur district. He was snoring on the sofa with a set of keys clutched in his hand when the house owner woke up in the morning.

The house owner, who was sure that the thief was drunk, woke him up by hitting him with a stick and then handed him over to the police.

According to police, the thief was tired after removing the tiles on Tuesday night and hence he decided to take a nap soon after entering the house.

He grabbed a bunch of keys kept near the TV stand and then lied down on the sofa. He woke up only when the house owner hit him with a stick the next morning.
