The victim has been identified as Deepak Rao aka Deepu (32), a resident of Katipalla’s Kaikamba area.

Police said Deepak had worked with private company agency which was owned by a Muslim. Since most of the customers were from minority community, Deepak used frequent areas dominated by them for work. He was fluent in Beary language, spoken by Muslims in Mangaluru.

On fateful day, when he was going to collect some documents from the office at Katipalla, a group of miscreants who arrived in a car, attacked him with lethal weapons. 

The attack was so brutal that his fingers were severed and he received serious injuries on his head. He died on the spot due to injuries. The body has been shifted to private hospital in Mangaluru for post-mortem.

As soon as the news began to spread a large number people had gathered at hospital.

Sources, said that few days ago there was clash between two religious communities over tying of buntings for a programme. Deepak, who is member of saffron party and association, was also one among them. 

Meanwhile, BJP leaders have condemned the murder and demanded NIA probe.

Mangaluru, May 24: A youth committed suicide by jumping into River Netravati from the old bridge at Panemangaluru on the outskirts of the city. 

The deceased has been identified as Nishant, son of Chandrahasa Moolya, a resident of Kolakeeru, near Kalladka in Bantwal taluk. 

When Nishant jumped to river, a few Muslim youths - identified as Shameer Goodinabali, Mohammad, Tauseef, Mukhtar, Zahid and Arif - also jumped to river in an apparent bid to rescue him. 

Though they managed to take an unconscious Nishant out of the water, he breathed his last without responding to any treatment. Jurisdictional Bantwal town police visited the spot later.

Meanwhile, a few locals captured the video of Muslim youths' attempt to rescue a Hindu youth on Eid al-Fitr amidst covid-19 lockdown. The video went viral within hours. 

Social media platforms including WhatsApp and Facebook flooded with messages appreciating the courage of Muslim men, who endangered their lives to save a Hindu youth on Eid day.
