Mangalore, July 17: The Social Democratic Party of India has strongly condemned the latest three simultaneous deadly bomb blasts in crowded Mumbai localities on Wednesday evening that took away 19 precious lives while about 131 people were injured.

Mr. Abdul Majeed Kodlipete SDPI, Karnataka State president, in a statement, while expressing deep shock over this despicable and dastardly act, has condoled the casualties of the innocents in the blast and extended heart-felt sympathies to the families of the victims and those injured. He termed it as an inhuman act and demanded harshest punishment for the perpetrators of this heinous act. Killing innocent persons is not justified and it is a barbaric act. This cold-blooded killing of innocent people, only appears to be aimed at stoking sectarian tensions in a city known for its cosmopolitan outlook, He asserted.

He cautioned that before anything is established conclusively and hard facts and clues point out to some definite conclusions the investigative agencies, political outfits and the media should restrain themselves from floating conjectures and speculations just on the basis of suspicion. Thus, the blame game should be avoided as in the past this has played havoc with the lives and career of many innocent youths.

He called upon both the Union and the state government to demonstrate an unfaltering commitment and determination to take on this menace decisively so that innocent lives may be saved. He urged the Home Ministry to conduct a thorough investigation into the blasts, and ensure that the culprits as well as those that inspired them are exposed and brought to justice. Several bomb blasts in recent years, led to innocent youth from a specific community being thrown into prison, and still struggling to secure justice, even after the real masterminds have confessed their guilt's, He pointed out.

Mr. Abdul Majeed urged the Union and the state government to rise to the occasion and fight terrorism in all of its malevolent manifestations without casting aspirations towards any caste, creed and community as a whole. Each case should be dealt on its merits and see to it that the lives and career of the innocents are not jeopardized in the process.

Mangaluru, Feb 5: ‘Forum for the justice of December 19 Mangaluru firing victims’ has demanded that the policemen who are responsible for the death of two innocent men in Mangaluru one-and-a-half months ago should be booked for homicide. 

49-year-old Abdul Jaleel Kandak, a father of two, and 23-year-old Nausheen Kudroli, were killed in an arbitrary and unwarranted police firing during a disturbance occurred due to police baton charge in the city on December 2019. 

Addressing a press conference, Forum’s convenor Abdul Jaleel Krishnapur said that a judicial inquiry commission should be set up to probe into the police firing which claimed two lives and injured many other innocent civilians.  

“Already a murder case should have been filed against the policemen who opened fire on the people.  Instead, false cases have been booked against many innocent people including the victims. This is a blot on the society,” he said. 

He urged the government to direct the police department to drop false charges registered against the victims and take necessary action against the culprits in khaki. 

He said that the Form demands Rs 25 lakh each compensation for the kin of the two men murdered by the police and Rs 15 lakh compensation for those who injured in police firing on December 19.
