Mangaluru, Jan 29: A day after a senior leader of Vishwa Hindu Parishad called upon the Hindus to support the extremists who killed an innocent Muslim man earlier this month in Mangaluru, several organisations and political parties on Monday demanded his immediate arrest.

Speaking at a book release function to in the city on Sunday, Jagadish Shenava, Dakshina Kannada district unit president of VHP, had called upon the Hindu society to support the accused persons involved in the murder of Ahmed Basheer, an innocent Muslim man who was hacked to death by saffron activists earlier this month in the city. He also stated there is nothing wrong in murdering any innocent Muslim in retaliation for the murder of a Hindu.

Reacting sharply to the statement, the local unit of Popular Front of India said that killing innocents for political gains is part of Sangh Parivar’s agenda.  In a statement issued here, the PFI said that Mangaluru city police should prove its efficiency by registering a suo motu case against the hate speaker and arresting him immediately. “This is not the first time. Mr Shenava has tried to disrupt peace in the past too. He is a threat to the communal amity and peace. He should be arrested and imprisoned,” it said.

Meanwhile, Social Democratic Party of India said that the Mr Shenava’s shameless statement proves that the murders of Deepak Rao and Basheer were a part of a major conspiracy by communal forces to create violence and unleash bloodshed in the region ahead of assembly polls.

Democratic Youth Federation of India State president Muneer Katipalla said that Mr. Shenva should be arrested for spreading communal hatred. He said that the state government should immediately withdraw security cover given to Mr Shenva.

Mr Katipalla said that the statement clearly showed the involvement of communal forces in the revengeful murders on communal lines reported in the district.

Terming Mr Shenava’s statement as the height of shamelessness and barbarism, Dakshina Kannada District Congress Committee said that police should take necessary action against him and practically give a strong message to those who support killers.

Riyadh, May 22: The family of murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi on Friday said that they forgave his killers. Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who had written columns critical of Saudi Arabia, was brutally killed in October 2018, allegedly at the behest of Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman.

“In this blessed night of the blessed month [of Ramadan] we remember God’s saying: If a person forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from Allah,” Jamal Khashoggi’s son Salah Khashoggi said in a tweet. “Therefore, we the sons of the Martyr Jamal Khashoggi announce that we pardon those who killed our father, seeking reward [from] God almighty.”

The legal outcome of this announcement is not yet clear. Earlier, Salah Khashoggi said he had “full confidence” in the judicial system, and that the accused were trying to exploit the case.

Jamal Khashoggi’s body was said to have been dismembered inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul and disposed of elsewhere, but his remains were never found.

Washington, Jun 30: Researchers in China have discovered a new type of swine flu that is capable of triggering a pandemic, according to a study published Monday in the US science journal PNAS.

Named G4, it is genetically descended from the H1N1 strain that caused a pandemic in 2009.

It possesses "all the essential hallmarks of being highly adapted to infect humans," say the authors, scientists at Chinese universities and China's Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

The researchers then carried out various experiments including on ferrets, which are widely used in flu studies because they experience similar symptoms to humans -- principally fever, coughing and sneezing. 

G4 was observed to be highly infectious, replicating in human cells and causing more serious symptoms in ferrets than other viruses.

Tests also showed that any immunity humans gain from exposure to seasonal flu does not provide protection from G4.

According to blood tests which showed up antibodies created by exposure to the virus, 10.4 percent of swine workers had already been infected.

The tests showed that as many as 4.4 percent of the general population also appeared to have been exposed.

The virus has therefore already passed from animals to humans but there is no evidence yet that it can be passed from human to human -- the scientists' main worry.

"It is of concern that human infection of G4 virus will further human adaptation and increase the risk of a human pandemic," the researchers wrote.

The authors called for urgent measures to monitor people working with pigs.

"The work comes as a salutary reminder that we are constantly at risk of new emergence of zoonotic pathogens and that farmed animals, with which humans have greater contact than with wildlife, may act as the source for important pandemic viruses," said James Wood, head of the department of veterinary medicine at Cambridge University.

A zoonotic infection is caused by a pathogen that has jumped from a non-human animal into a human.
