Mangalore, February 12: Philomena Peres, former president of the Karnataka State Women's Commission, has urged the government to reveal the expenditure details of the Justice Somashekar commission which looked into the series of attacks on churches across the state.


"The panel has spent Rs 19 Crore in order to produce a report that gave clean chit to Bajrang Dal. Therefore it is the duty of the government to place the expenditure account in the public domain," Peres said while addressing a protest meeting in front of the DC office on Friday.


The meeting was organised by Mangalore Central Committee in co-ordination with like-minded groups to protest against the biased report of the Somashekara panel and seek immediate release of the innocent Muslims arrested in connection with various blast cases across the country.


A huge procession was also organised before the meeting from Kudroli to the DC office. The meeting was attended among others by Komu Sauharda Vedike general secretary KL Ashok, CN Shetty, Dennis D'Silva, B Vishnumurthy, SSF state treasurer Shafi Saadi, NCHRO Udupi district president Father William Martis.
