Six flesh traders held for killing 3

February 22, 2012

Bangalore, February 22: Six persons have been arrested for allegedly running a thriving prostitution racket. Over the last two years, they'd killed three associates following differences over sharing of the spoils.

Lethal weapons, including an electric cable used to commit the murders, have been recovered from the culprits. A chance arrest of four persons who were moving suspiciously at Shettyhalli near Peena on February 7 led to the unearthing of the racket. The arrested were SK Parameshwara Gowda alias Girish, 28, from Bylappa Circle in T Dasarahalli; NK Umesh, 23, Andhrahalli; HM Mahesh alias Toli Mahesh, 23, of Pipeline Road in T Dasarahalli; C Nagesh, 23, of Abbigere Cross in Nanje Gowda Extension.

The two others arrested later were Chalapathy alias Reddy, 24, of Vidyaranyapura and Raju, 22, of Manorayanapalya.

The six gangsters brought young girls to the city and pushed them into the flesh trade. They first hacked to death their accomplice, Srinivas, an auto driver from Kunigal. Srinivas, in charge of ferrying women in his vehicle, was murdered in Chalapathy's house near Vidyaranyapura in November 2010. The gangsters later dumped the body in Hemavathy canal, Hassan district.

On November 14, 2010, Srinivas'wife lodged a police complaint but there was no breakthrough in the case. The gangsters murdered another accomplice, Umesh, 24, as he refused to part with jewellery and cash the gang had looted from a couple.

On December 5, 2011, Umesh was strangled to death. The body was dumped in Hemavathy canal. The gangsters killed another accomplice, Madhu, 28, from Hassan district on February 5. His body was burnt in a forest.

Panaji, Feb 23: A MiG-29K aircraft crashed off Goa during a routine training sortie on Sunday morning, the Indian Navy said in a statement.

"The pilot ejected safely and has been recovered. An enquiry into the incident has been ordered," the statement said.

On November 16, a MiG-29K trainer flight had crashed after a bird hit, soon after it took off the Dabolim International airport, which functions out of the Indian Navy base INS Hansa.

Both pilots had managed to safely eject themselves to safety after both the engines of their jet failed.

According to data tabled in the recent budget session of the Goa Assembly, every ten days, at least one aircraft landing or taking off at Goa's Dabolim international airport faces dangers involving birds or stray dogs near the runway.
