Mangalore, July 12: A small group of residents of Panjimogaru led by BJP Corporator Shantha R staged a protest at Kulur junction here on Tuesday demanding stern action against police who allegedly harassed two 'innocent' Dalit teenagers in connection with the brutal murder of a woman and daughter.

Addressing the protesters Ms Shantha demanded to arrest the 'real culprit' of the murder.

She said that some people in the guise of policemen arrested Saanu and Sunil, took them to a deserted place, and urged them to admit that they had murdered the mother-daughter duo. After torturing the boys, the duo were dropped at Bikarnakatte, she said.

She alleged that police had come in a car that belonged to Hameed, the husband of the deceased. She wanted to know why police used his car though the department had plenty of vehicles of its own.

The protesters also raised slogan against police.

A memorandum urging the immediate arrest of real culprit was submitted to Deputy Commissioner, City Police Commissioner and Inspector General of Police of Civil Rights Enforcement Cell.

Gadag, Feb 20: A 33-year-old Muslim man is all set to become a seer at Muruga Rajendra Mutt in Gadag.

Ordained by Sri Murugarajendra Koraneswara Swami of the mutt, Dewan Sharief Mullah claims he was taking the step not under any duress but after being "guided by the almighty".

"Nobody asked me to do it. The almighty came in my mind and guided me.... They have put the sacred thread and given me the responsibility. They have given me the 'Ishta-linga' and this honour. I have done the 'Ishta-linga dharan'. I will walk on the path of dharma. Love and sacrifice is the message given to me. That is what I want to propagate," he said.

Sri Murugarajendra Koraneswara Swami said, "It does not matter what caste you belong to. If God appears to you for a path of goodwill and sacrifice, you will do it regardless of the manmade restrictions of birth and caste."
