Bangalore, Jul 21: A 30-year-old skating instructor was arrested on Sunday on the charge of raping a six-year-old girl student at Vibgyor High, Marathahalli.

The suspect, Mustafa alias Munna, is a native of Darbhanga in Bihar and the father of a five-year-old girl. He has been working in Vibgyor High since 2011.

The police seized a laptop and a mobile phone from him. The laptop contained “incriminating pornographic videos of schoolgirls being raped, which he had downloaded from the Internet,” Bangalore Police Commissioner Raghavendra H Auradkar told the media at a hurriedly convened press conference at HAL police station.

The police said Mustafa is a pervert who derives pleasure from watching videos of schoolgirls being raped.

He had been showing such video clips and nude pictures to girl students at Vibgyor High as well as at another school in Whitefield where he was employed earlier.

Mustafa was also in the habit of clicking nude pictures of schoolgirls.

Auradkar did not give details of the incident that took place on July 2.

However, he said: “There are complaints that he was involved in several such cases in another school as well. The police believe they could be genuine as they are oral complaints received from highly reliable sources.”

To a query, Auradkar said: “I don't think the school management verified his antecedents before appointing him.”

Joint Commissioner of Police (Law and Order-East) K V?Sharathchandra said it was basic policing that helped arrest Mustafa. The police zeroed in on him based on some clues.

The suspicion strengthened after the police found pornographic content on his laptop. On interrogation, he admitted to raping the minor.

Mustafa did not destroy the evidence and presumed his act would go unnoticed. It is not known if he wanted to experiment the “acts in the video clips that he downloaded from the Internet”, Sharathchandra said.

The police said they believe another school staff is also involved in the incident and he would be arrested soon. Mustafa has been booked under IPC Section 376 (rape) and Sections 4 and 6 of POCSO Act, 2012. He was arrested from his house on Ramakrishna Road in Varthur.

Mustafa's father Murthuja is a car driver and mother, a maid servant. They moved to Bangalore about 20 years ago to eke out a living.

Mustafa completed schooling in Bangalore and did his BPEd from a private college in Raichur.

Police said they will produce him before the court and seek his custody as they need to continue the investigation. He will also be subjected to a medical examination.

Auradkar said Mustafa was drawing a salary of Rs 18,000 per month. But he owned three expensive laptops and a mobile phone.

The police will also probe how he managed to buy such expensive gadgets.

Hubballi, Jan 29: Thousands of people took part in a protest march against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) causing traffic snarl in the city on Tuesday.

Various Dalit organisations had taken part in protest organised under the aegis of the 'Samvidana Samrakshana Samiti'.

KPCC members including MLA Prasad Abbayya, former Minister A.M. Hindasageri and office-bearers also joined the protest.

They congregated first at B.R. Ambedkar Statue near the Head Post Office in Hubballi. Holding flags and banners, the protesters marched from Ambedkar statue to mini Vidhana Soudha covering Lamington Road, Sangolli Rayanna Statue and Kittur Chennamma Circle.

Mr. Abbayya said that despite opposition from various minority communities and progressive organisations, the Union government had not changed its stand. The opposition would continue till the new law was repealed, he said.

He termed the CAA as a draconian law that meted out injustice to not only Muslims but also to Hindus. “Giving citizenship based on documents is highly condemnable. At a time when the country is undergoing an economic slowdown, it is highly condemnable that thousands of crores are being spent to enact the law. The Union government should immediately abolish the new law,” he said.

They submitted a memorandum to the Hubballi tahsildar that was addressed to the President, seeking abolition of the new law. In view of the march, the police had diverted traffic and had made elaborate bandobast.

Chennai, July 27: Multi-lingual actress Vijayalakshmi, who attempted suicide yesterday, alleging harassment and bullying by followers of Naam Thamizhar party leader Seeman and Panankattu Padai’s Hari Nadar, is recuperating at a hospital in Chennai. 

Vijayalakshmi is known for films like Friends and Boss Engira Baskaran. She recently made headlines for speaking against Seeman and the torture she was allegedly facing from the actor-turned-politician and his party.

In the video which was uploaded on Sunday evening, Vijayalakshmi said, “This is my last video and I have been in tremendous stress in the last four months because of Seeman and his partymen. I tried my level best to survive all these days because of my mother and sister, but I have been humiliated in the media by Harinadar recently.”

She added, “I would like to tell fans who are watching the video just because I was born in Karnataka, Seeman has tortured me a lot. As a woman, I have put up with it to my highest capabilities. I won’t be able handle the pressure anymore. I am from the Pillai community, the same community LTTE leader Prabhakaran is part of. Prabhakaran is the only reason Seeman is who he is today, but now he has been harassing me on social media continuously. You slut shamed me to make me feel the pain and it is up to me to decide on what to do after facing such insults from you. I request my fans not to let Seeman get away from this case. He should never get anticipatory bail. My death should be a big eye-opener to everyone. I don’t want to be a slave to anybody.”

Bengaluru, Feb 28: BS Yediyurappa’s contribution to the economy is substantial, and he is one CM who has contributed largely to making India the fifth largest economy, said Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday.

“He will ensure that Karnataka contributes towards making India the third-largest economy in the coming days,” Singh said, who had flown from New Delhi to participate in the CM’s birthday celebrations.

Singh recalled Yediyurappa asking him how to increase welfare measures for farmers, and had suggested that the CM reduce interest rates on loans to help the community. “Yediyurappa took the suggestion seriously and reduced interest of loans to a mere 4 % and gradually reduced it to 1 % before coming down to zero,” Singh said, appreciating Yediyurappa’s love for farmers.
