The deceased have been identified as Madoor Yousuf alias Madooru Isubu (40) and Ganesh Shetty.

According to police Madoor Isubu, who was arrested in 2010, was a close aide of underworld don Chota Shakeel. He was accused of involving in more than 17 criminal cases since the year 2001, including four murders, attempt to murder, hurting, rioting and extortion.

Ganesh Shetty was also arrested in 2010 in connection with the murder case of Mahendra Pratap in 1994.

Around a dozen people have been injured in the clash. The injured also include a couple of police constables, sources said.

Some of the injured who were rushed to Government Wenlock Hospital have been identified as Iqbal, Asif, Pradeep Vamanjoor, Umesh Kombar, Yuvraj Soorinje and Shobharaj.

Even though the exact reason for the clash is yet to be ascertained by the police, sources said that it erupted when the inmates had assembled for breakfast on Wednesday morning.

It is learnt that Isubu and Shetty were attacked by the members of a gang with lethal weapons. According to a police officer, the weapons might have been thrown over the prison wall by the gang members.

According Mangaluru City Police Commissioner S Murugan, the weapons used for the murder might have been thrown over the prison wall from outside by associates of some of the under-trials.

He declined to comment on the reports that the prison had witnessed clashes between two gangs for past few days.

He said that both the murders were by the same gang of criminals. “It was the result of a violent clash between two gangs. Madoor Isubu and his alleged associate Ganesh Shetty were attacked during breakfast,” he said.

He clarified that Wednesday’s murders have no connection with any communal incidents. “It’s a clash between two gangs and not a communal clash,” he said.

Vicky Shetty claims responsibility

A notorious criminal, who is known for his inclination towards Sangh Parivar, has claimed responsibility for the cold blooded murders of two inmates at Mangaluru sub jail on Monday.

Madoor Isubu and his alleged associate Ganesh Shetty were hacked to death inside the prison by a gang during breakfast on Monday.

Vicky Shetty, a fugitive gangster, reportedly called the office of a Kannada news channel and told that his accomplices committed the crime.

“Our boys did it. Because they (victims) were anti-nationals and associates of Dawood Ibrahim,” said the caller, who identified himself as Vicky Shetty.

Arguing that the “nation” and the “underworld” are one and the same, the caller said that this murder has sent a clear message for “anti-nationals”.

Mangaluru, Jun 12: A huge crowd gathered for the grand opening of the newly built 175-metre-long two-lane bridge across Phalguni River on National Highway 169 near Gurupura on the outskirts of the city today.

Even as the photos of the bridge inauguration ceremony went viral on social media, netizens took the elected representatives and the district administration to task for flouting safety norms at a time when the coronavirus cases are continuing to mount in coastal Karnataka.

The bridge was completed in a record time of 15 months. Dakshina Kannada MP and State BJP President Nalin Kumar Kateel and district in-charge Minister Kota Srinivas Poojari inaugurated the bridge in the presence of Mangaluru City North MLA Y. Bharath Shetty and others.

The bridge has come as a breather to thousands of travellers between Mangaluru-Moodbidri-Karkala on the busy NH. The age-old steel bridge had become dilapidated and was a cause for concern for road users. The highway is also under the process of getting widened to four lanes.

The bridge was constructed at an estimated cost of Rs 30 crore by contractor Sudhakar Shetty of Mugrodi Construction. Work started in February last and the contractor had time till February next.

While the two-lane carriageway is 16 metres wide, the bridge has 2.5-metre-wide pedestrian paths on both the sides. New approach roads of 500 metres each were also part of the project.

Isn't it a fact that lakhs of Indians go abroad to play in Casinos? Can anyone stop them? At the moment, there is no proposal before Our Govt to set up Casinos here,' he tweeted in the morning.

He also urged the Central government to stop people from visiting abroad.

Yesterday, the minister had stated that he has no intention of developing "casino tourism" in the state.

"I only expressed my opinion on how other countries have promoted tourism, during a discussion. Casino tourism is one such thing, I have no intention of developing it here," Ravi had told media when asked to comment on Karnataka government's proposal of casinos in Coastal Karnataka.

"What I meant was many Indians go and spend there, our money should be spent here itself," he had said.

Amaravati, May 7: Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president and former chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday said that Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa has assured him to offer immediate help to stranded Andhra fishermen.

Around 300 Andhra Pradesh fishermen are stranded on the coast of Malpe village in Udupi district.

"Karnataka CM has responded very positively and assured to offer the stranded fishermen immediate help. The fishermen hail from Srikakulam district in Andhra Pradesh.

Yediyurappa has also said that their team was also contacting Andhra Pradesh authorities to safely bring them back to their home state," Naidu said in a statement on Twitter.

In a separate letter to Yediyurappa, Naidu lauded the tremendous efforts that the government of Karnataka has been putting to fight COVID-19 and expressed his solidarity with the people there in this critical time.

Naidu said that many Telugu people that have migrated to other states for work were facing various problems due to the COVID-induced lockdown.

"In this backdrop, I would like to bring to your notice that around 300 fishing folk from Srikakulam District are stranded in Malpe Village, Udupi District, Karnataka. Their families, relatives and well-wishers are deeply worried for their safety and well being," Naidu said.

The TDP chief said that on behalf of those families and on his own behalf, he would appeal for sending the stranded fishermen back to their respective homes.

"In case that is not possible, I request you to provide them with shelter, food, water, medical aid and other essential commodities until the end of COVID lockdown," TDP chief said in a letter.
