Udupi, Feb 20: In a shocking incident, a Muslim woman was found hanging under suspicious circumstances in her in-laws' house at Bailoor near Karkala in Udupi district last night.

The victim has been identified as Rubeena(27), mother of a two-and-a-half-year-old son. Her husband Mohammed Asif works in United Arab Emirates. Mr Asif has arrived from Dubai.

Even though Rubeena's in-laws have claimed that she committed suicide by hanging herself from the ceiling of her room, her family members have accused her in-laws of murdering her and then trying to depict it as a case of suicide.

After Rubeena's body was sent for post-mortem, her mother-in-law Bi Fathima and husband's sister Haseena Banu were taken into custody by the police for questioning.

According to Rubeena's brother Abdul Rahman, who rushed to her in-laws' house after an emergency call from her husband's brother, told police that the body was found hanging in a suspicious manner.

“Rubeena endured torture from her husband's mother and sister for a long time. We knew the fact that Haseena, a divorcee, often used to fight with my sister and verbally abuse her. Now they silenced her forever,” Abdul Rahman told police.

Rubeena's uncle and other family members also refused to buy the version of her in-laws and accused the latter of harassing and ultimately killing her for dowry.

Originally hailing from Mukkah, Rubeena's parents had recently shifted to Katipalla and she had lost her father nearly four months ago.

A case has been registered at Karkala town police station and investigations are on.

Mangaluru NRI returning from Saudi Arabia arrested over Instagram post

News Network

December 15,2025

Mangaluru police have arrested a 27-year-old NRI on his return from Saudi Arabia in connection with an Instagram post allegedly containing derogatory and provocative remarks about the Hindu religion, officials said on Monday.

The accused, Abdul Khader Nehad, a resident of Ulaibettu in Mangaluru, was working in Saudi Arabia when the post was uploaded, police said.

A suo motu case was registered at the Bajpe police station on October 11 after an allegedly offensive post circulated from the Instagram account ‘team_sdpi_2025’. Police said the content was flagged for being provocative and derogatory in nature.

During the investigation, technical analysis traced the Instagram post to Nehad, who was residing abroad at the time, a senior police officer said. Based on these findings, a Look Out Circular (LOC) was issued against him.

On December 14, Nehad arrived from Saudi Arabia at Calicut International Airport in Kerala, where he was taken into custody on arrival. Police said further investigation is underway.

Flight cancellations strand passengers overnight at Mangaluru Airport

News Network

December 4,2025

Mangaluru: Chaos erupted at Mangaluru International Airport (MIA) after IndiGo flight 6E 5150, bound for Mumbai, was repeatedly delayed and ultimately cancelled, leaving around 100 passengers stranded overnight. The incident highlights the ongoing country-wide operational disruptions affecting the airline, largely due to the implementation of new Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL) norms for crew.

The flight was initially scheduled for 9:25 PM on Tuesday but was first postponed to 11:40 PM, then midnight, before being cancelled around 3:00 AM. Passengers expressed frustration over last-minute communication and the lack of clarity, with elderly and ailing travellers particularly affected. “Though the airline arranged food, there was no proper communication, leaving us confused,” said one family member.

An IndiGo executive at MIA cited the FDTL rules, designed to prevent pilot fatigue by limiting crew working hours, as the cause of the cancellation. While alternative arrangements, including hotel stays, were offered, about 100 passengers chose to remain at the airport, creating tension. A replacement flight was arranged but also faced delays due to the same constraints, finally departing for Mumbai around 1:45 PM on Wednesday. Passengers either flew, requested refunds, or postponed their travel.

The Mangaluru delay is part of a broader crisis for IndiGo. The airline has been forced to make “calibrated schedule adjustments”—a euphemism for widespread cancellations and delays—after stricter FDTL norms came into effect on November 1.

While an IndiGo spokesperson acknowledged unavoidable flight disruptions due to technology issues, operational requirements, and the updated crew rostering rules, the DGCA has intervened, summoning senior airline officials to explain the chaos and outline corrective measures.

The ripple effect has been felt across the country, with major hubs like Bengaluru and Mumbai reporting numerous cancellations. The Mangaluru incident underscores the systemic operational strain currently confronting India’s largest carrier, leaving passengers nationwide grappling with uncertainty and delays.
