Govt not ready to withdraw cases against Muthalik: CM

January 11, 2016

Bengaluru, Jan 11: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has made it clear that the state government will not drop criminal cases against Sri Rama Sene chief Pramod Muthalik.

The clarification comes in the backdrop of reports that the State government had sought legal opinion on a proposal to withdraw 13 hate speech cases against Mr Muthalik.

“We are not withdrawing any cases against Muthalik. It is all you (media) that created the news. We won’t withdraw any cases registered against him,” the CM told media persons in Raichur.

Home Minister too had maintained that the State was firm on its stand on cases against Mr. Muthalik.

It may be recalled that AB Ibrahim, the Deputy Commissioner of Dakshina Kannada district had written to the State government, stating that any such move would “demoralise the police force”.

Instead, the Deputy Commissioner wanted the State government to ensure that the cases were pursued thoroughly and brought to their logical conclusion.

‘Profit’ trap: Mangaluru trader duped of ₹33.1 lakh in online App scam

News Network

December 7,2025

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.
