Mangaluru, Jul 13: A gang of three miscreants barged into a beef stall at Mastikatte area in Ullal on the outskirts of the city and attempted to murder a youth in the broad daylight on Wednesday.

A severely injured Mohammad Kamaaluddin, 25, son of Nasir, a resident of Alekal, was rushed to a private hospital in Thokkottu for treatment after the attack.

The eye-witnesses have identified the assailants as Arfan, Mitha Nisar and Jafar, the three notorious men, who had allegedly robbed the same beef staff nearly a month ago during Ramadan.

They attacked Kamaaluddin with knife, iron rod and soda bottles and fled the scene before anyone could catch them.

According to sources, the reason for today's murderous attack was that Kamaaluddin had lodged a police complaint against trio and their associates after they allegedly barged into the beef stall in Ramadan, attacked him and other staff before fleeing with Rs 1,200.
Based on the complaint of Kamaaluddin, the Ullal police had nabbed one of the gang members, identified as Mukthar, who is still in custody.

Following this the other gang members had started issuing threats to Kamaaluddin and asked him to withdraw the complaint against them. Arfan's father Jaldi Siddiq, who is said to be a drug peddler, had also threatened to eliminate Kamaaluddin if he failed to withdraw complaint.

Kamaaluddin had reportedly brought this issue to the notice of the local police, who asked him to be careful. However, on Wednesday the three among the accused again barged into the beef stall and attempted to murder him.

When the injured was admitted to the hospital, a few local residents saw Jaldi Siddiq there. He began to ran. However, locals chased for nearly one kilometre and caught him. He was then handed over to the police.

A case has been registered at Ullal police station in this regard and investigations are on.

Bengaluru, Jan 18: The Karnataka state government has reportedly initiated the process to ban organizations like Popular Front of India (PFI).

State Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Friday evening said that instructions have been given to the police and officers concerned to gather information about the activities of such organisations so that necessary inputs can be sent to the Center.

He made it clear that the action would not be limited against PFI and SDFI (Social Democratic Front of India), rather any organisation which is involved in such activities, would meet the same fate.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: Education technology company Byju’s is learnt to have raised $200 million in a funding round from Tiger Global Management, which has valued the Bengaluru-based start-up at around $8 billion, making it the third-largest unicorn (start-up valued over $1 billion) in the country.

With this, the Byju Raveendran-founded company has seen over 50 per cent jump in its valuation in just around nine months. In March 2019, Byju’s was valued $5.4 billion, when it raised around $31 million from General Atlantic, and Chinese investment giant Tencent.

At the current valuation, Byju’s has now replaced home-grown cab-hailing major Ola as the third-largest unicorn, next only to Paytm and OYO, which are valued around $16 billion and $10 billion, respectively.

Byju’s confirmed the transaction through a press statement, though the company declined to share any specific details of the deal. Tiger Global could not be immediately reached for its comments.

“We are happy to partner with a strong investor like Tiger Global Management. They share our sense of purpose and this partnership will advance our long-term vision of creating an impact by changing the way students learn,” said Raveendran. “This partnership is both a validation of the impact created by us so far and a vote of confidence for our long-term vision.”

This is Tiger Global’s first investment in the edutech space in India after Vendantu, an online tutoring platform, where it, along with WestBridge Capital, led a $42-million round in August.

An early backer of India’s internet growth story, the New York-headquartered Tiger Global has been a prolific investor in the Indian start-up space. Its portfolio in the country ranges from consumer focused e-commerce companies that are vital for the growth of the sector, such as Flipkart, Delhivery, Grofers, Quikr and PolicyBazaar, to mention a few.

After tasting success with Flipkart, one of its earliest investments, where it had pumped in around $1 billion, the PE major is now doubling down its focus on the Indian start-up space, under its new investment head Scott Shleifer.

Shleifer, who set up international private equity practice for Tiger Global, is said to be as aggressive deal maker like his predecessor Lee Fixel, who left the investment firm in March. Since then, Tiger has also invested in a host of technology-focused companies in diverse sectors including Ninjacart, CRED, NoBroker and Facilio to mention a few.

“Byju’s has emerged as the leader in the Indian education-tech sector. They are pioneering technology shaping the future of learning for millions of school students in India,” Shleifer was quoted in the press statement issued by the edutech firm.
