Dammam, Jul 10: The formation of a sub-committee of Badria alumni in the Saudi Arabian city of Dammam/Khobar has further strengthened the international alumni network of Badria Educational Institutes.

The Dammam/Khobar sub-committee was officially formed during an iftar-get together of Badria alumni at Classic Restaurant near As-Salama Hospital in Khobar.

Mohammed Nizar Kunjathoor (2004 batch) was unanimously elected president of the sub-committee. Mohammed Naser (2002 batch) was elected vice-president. Mohammed Munawar (2004 batch) was elected secretary. Mansoor M H (1994-2004 batch) was elected joint secretary. Shahul Hameed (1989 batch) was elected treasurer.

Around two dozens of old students of Badria took part in the get-together and became members of the sub-committee.

The international alumni network of Badria came into existence following a report by Coastaldigiest.com, which exposed the pathetic condition of one of the historic educational institutions of coastal Karnataka.

As part of the network the subcommittees have already been formed in Jubail, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. More sub-committees are expected to be formed in prominent cities of Middle East. Meanwhile, an alumni get-together is expected to be held in Mangalore in the month of Ramadan.

Mangaluru, Dec 7: A 34-year-old fruit and vegetable trader in Mangaluru has reportedly lost ₹33.1 lakh after falling victim to an online investment scam run through a fake mobile app.

Police said the scam began in September, when the victim received a link on Facebook. Clicking it connected him to a WhatsApp number, where an unidentified person introduced a high-return investment scheme and instructed him to download an app.

To build trust, the fraudster asked him to invest ₹30,000 on September 24. The trader soon received ₹34,000 as “profit,” convincing him the scheme was genuine. Over the next two months, he transferred money in multiple instalments via Google Pay and IMPS to different scanner codes and bank accounts shared by the scammers. Between September 24 and December 3, he ended up sending a total of ₹33.1 lakh.

When he later requested a refund of his investment and promised returns, the scammers demanded additional payments, claiming he needed to pay a “service tax” first. Even after he paid a small amount, no money was returned, and the scammers continued pressuring him for more.

A case has been registered at the CEN Crime Police Station.
