Mangaluru, Sep 10: A small group of activists of Campus Front of India (CFI), who visited the Mangaluru Rural Police Station on Saturday morning to submit a memorandum urging the cops to drop “false cases” slapped against a few college student, were greeted with lathis.

The development comes almost two weeks after a CFI-led protest forced the Srinivas College of Pharmacy, located at Valacchil on the outskirts of the city to withdraw its decision to ban hijab for new batch of students.

At least five persons were hospitalized after the unexpected laticharge on the premises of the police station. College students Hifaz and Muzammil, who suffered injuries during lathicharge were taken to Government Wenlcok Hospital. On the other hand, Sub Inspector Sudhakar and two constables-Chandra Shekhar and Vincent-also got admitted to the hospital, claiming that they were attacked by the CFI activists.

Led by CFI Dakshina Kannada district president Mohammed Athaullah, around 15 activists had been to the police station along with a copy of memorandum.

“We neither staged a protest nor raised slogans. Our intention was just to handover a memorandum to the police requesting them to drop the false ragging case' registered against a few students,” said one of the CFI activists, adding that the complainants have also admitted that their principal had forced them to do so.

He claimed that the authorities of Srinivas College of Pharmacy took revenge against the CFI activists for protesting hajab ban two weeks ago. “In fact all students of the college are united. However, recently the principal forced a few first year Bachelor of Pharmacy students to lodge ragging complaint against their seniors who had taken part in the last protest,” he said.

“Those who are facing ragging charge are innocent students. Being a student organisation, CFI raised its voice for them and will continue to do so,” he said, and added that the attempt to curb the students' movement will not succeed.

Mohan ABVP rightly said .... ABVP will not tolerate if anyone attacks Police. Because Police men are wearing also Khaki chaddi inside. Police also belongs to them (RSS).

Yes you are right. Commissioner told the normal people to raise the voice whenever there is injustice. CFI students raised their voice against injustice but police are not even ready to take the memorandum So commissioner has to f

Why the police version is not mentioned in the report? I request CD reporter to be impartial and add the version of police too. one sided story we dont want. We know very well who these guys are.

Three policemen were attacked by CFI terrorists. What the hell other policemen were doing? Why cant they use their guns to finish those who attack policemen?

Dont blame our college for no reason. This case has no link with hijab ban issue. Actually there was no need for a protest two weeks ago. College was ready to withdraw hijab ban if the parents of the students collectively wanted it. CFI just tried to get political milage by staging a protest. And now they are supporting ragging accused. what a shame!

I dont think anyone will lodge false ragging complaint. Something they might have done in the past. the college used the opportunity. CFI wanted to become hero and turned zero.

Very sad. What was the need for the police to cane the CFI activists? They could have accepted the memorandum and throw it into dust bin if the demand was not genuine. Unfortunately this happened within a day after leaders of different community came together for a better mangaluru.

Chennai, Jul 25: Two weeks after a 62-year-old widow accused him of harassment, including urinating outside her house, the Chennai Police on Saturday registered an FIR against ABVP national president Dr Subbiah Shanmugam.

Dr Shanmugam, Professor and HOD, Department of Surgical Oncology, Kilpauk Medical College and Government Royapettah Hospital, has been booked under sections 271 (disobedience to quarantine rule) and 427 (mischief causing damage) under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Tamil Nadu Women Harassment Prevention Act.

The FIR was lodged exactly two weeks after the woman’s relative Balaji Vijayaraghavan filed a complaint with the Adambakkam police accusing Dr Shanmugam of harassing his aunt, who is living alone in her apartment following her husband’s death last year, following an argument over a parking slot. 

The action came after Vijayaraghavan alleged that the police were not filing an FIR due to the ABVP functionary’s “political connections.”

Dr Shanmugam and the woman were living in the same apartment complex in Nanganallur and an argument broke between them over a parking slot.

“He wanted to use our parking lot. We agreed but demanded a nominal charge for using it. He was outraged by our demand and even broke our signboard at the parking lot,” Vijayaraghavan wrote in his complaint.

He also alleged that Dr Shanmugam began harassing her by throwing “pieces of chicken” outside her apartment despite knowing she is a vegetarian.

CCTV footage corroborates with the allegations of urinating outside the residence of the widow. However, the ABVP called the incident as a “malicious and derogatory propaganda” by the Congress’ student wing of NSUI.

"The video shared by NSUI with an allegation of harassment is tampered with and is being used with malafide intentions. The two families have discussed this within their housing society and have already concluded that the harassment allegations were caused due to misunderstandings and are untrue,” ABVP National General secretary Nidhi Tripathi said.

Vijayaraghavan also alleged in his two-page written complaint that the ABVP national president had urinated outside the woman’s apartment gate and had been throwing garbage and used masks at her gate.

In his complaint, Vijayaraghavan also said the family was “concerned about her safety” while asking police to take action against Dr Shanmugam, who he says, “has a bad track record in maintaining rapport with neighbours.”
