The Minister said the police should conduct a probe into the links between the accused, Bharat, and Mr. Bhat.

Addressing presspersons here on Sunday, Mr. Khader said according to the police, Bharat, of Bantwal, is one among the two prime accused in the murder of the activist and an autorickshaw driver Ashraf Kalai, 35. Bharat is said to be associated with a Hindutva group. Mr. Bhat had conducted a meeting in the city in connection with a May 26 incident at Kalladkka. Photographs showing Bharat sharing the dais with Mr. Bhat have been published in newspapers. The Minister said this has proved the allegation by the Congress that Mr. Bhat is linked to the untoward incidents in Kalladkka and Bantwal taluk.

Mr. Khader added that the BJP had conducted a block-level meeting in Boliyar in Mangaluru taluk in the evening a day before the activist was murdered. The police should also find out if there was any link between the murder and the meeting.

The lack of Muslilm unity is main cause....
The happenings in India is against Islam.
Muslims must join with a chain without any Political or religious parties. Each muslim house have to have heavy loaded Gu s to shoot or destroy the people who enters your house any time without your permission (like it happened in bantwal taluk before few days) and also each muslim must carry for their protection.
