Naveen (23), son of Revanna, of Harohalli in Pandavapura taluk and a Hindu by birth, was courting Farhana Sultana (22), a Muslim. Naveen was studying second year BSc at Government First Grade College here and Farhana was in the final year at the same college.

They were in love for the past two years. As the parents were opposed to their relationship, both eloped on June 2 and entered into wedlock at Brahmalingeshwara temple at Doddabyadarahalli village in the same taluk. Fearing the consequences, they were staying in another district for the past few days.

Meanwhile, Farhana's father Sardar had lodged a missing complaint in the town police station on June 3. The police, who had registered the complaint, were in search of the couple.

On Sunday, Naveen and Farhana visited the police station at 11.30 am and explained that they were in love and had married voluntarily. They sought protection as their parents had objected to their relationship and may cause trouble.

The police summoned the parents of the couple and tried to convince them, but in vain. Later, the police explained to them that the newlywed couple were majors and it was their duty to protect them as per law.

Mangaluru: In a significant step to curb online hate and intimidation, Mangaluru City Police have registered a suo motu case against multiple Instagram accounts accused of circulating alleged provocative and threatening content.

While monitoring social media activity on Tuesday, Kankanady Town PSI Anitha Nikkam identified the Instagram handle ‘team_targetttt_900’ for posting a hate message alongside images of lethal weapons. Another account, ‘team_nagara_900’, allegedly shared a threatening post targeting activist Bharath Kumdelu, tagging additional pages such as KARAVALI-OFFICIAL.

Several other accounts — including ‘immu_bhai.fan’, ‘target_boy_900’, ‘kings_of_manglore’, ‘team_target_boys.900’, ‘arshad_mangalore’, ‘target_ka19_ullal’, ‘team_target__’, ‘troll_tigersz_900’, ‘tr_group_900’, and ‘team_target_900’ — are also under scrutiny for spreading similar inflammatory material, police said.

Authorities have urged citizens, especially young social media users, to report suspicious pages and avoid engaging with groups that glorify violence or threaten individuals. Online hate can quickly escalate into real-world harm, and police stress that sharing or promoting such content can attract legal consequences.
