Mangaluru, Oct 28: Issuing a stern warning to union government against trying to interfere in Islamic Shariah, a veteran Sunni cleric of coastal Karnataka has said that all members of Muslim community are ready to sink their differences to counter the politically motivated conspiracies againstthe religion of peace'.

Speaking at a protest meet organised by the Federation of Sunni Organisations of Dakshina Kannada on Friday in front of the office of deputy commissioner in the city, Ibrahim Musliyar Bekal, the Khazi of Udupi, said that government should not misunderstand that Muslims are divided.

“Yes, there are differences among Muslims. But, we are united and we will not tolerate any kind of external meddling in the affairs of Shariah,” he said in the presence of the leaders of various Sunni organisations such as SJU, SJM, SYS, SSF, SMA, SEDC, KMJC and KCF.

“Islam is the complete and flawless system, wherein one has no opportunity to make any changes. This is a divine system. Even prophet Muhammad (pbuh), who taught us Islam to the mankind, too has no authority to make any changes in the religion against God's will. Then how can we tolerate union government's attempt to outlaw talaq,” he questioned.

Quoting the hadith of Prophet (pbuh) that “among the lawful things, divorce is the most hated by Allah”, the Khazi said that a husband can resort to talaq only in an extreme situation. Similarly, Islam has granted power to woman too to separate from her husband in extreme situations, he added.

Presiding over the protest meet, KNM Shaafi Saadi, accused the media and politicians of spreading wrong information about the provision of talaq in Islam. “Talaq is a long procedure. One will not pounce all three talaqs together. One must study the concept of talaq thoroughly before commenting on it,” he said.

Responding to the Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent remark that he cannot allow lives of Muslim women to be ruined by talaq, the cleric said that the lives of thousands of Muslim women across the country have been ruined thanks to the atrocities of Sangh Parivar activists who indulge in communal riots and attack innocents.

Muslims any where in the Globe belong to one family only. No division among them. Sharia is Supreme for us. We will not allow interventions of Political People.

Udupi, Dec 1: A horrific case of alleged rape has unfolded in Udupi, where a worker from a Hindutva organisation, previously arrested and released on bail for harassing a young woman, is now accused of waylaying and sexually assaulting her.

The arrested individual has been identified as Pradeep Poojary (26), a member of the Hindu Jagarana Vedike's Nairkode unit in Perdur.

Poojary had allegedly been relentlessly harassing the young woman, pressuring her to marry him. When she bravely stood up to him and refused his demands, she filed a formal complaint at the Hiriyadka police station. He was subsequently arrested in that initial harassment case but was later granted bail.

According to police reports, driven by the same malicious grudge, Poojary allegedly intercepted the woman again on November 29. While she was walking through a deserted area, the accused is claimed to have threatened her by grabbing her neck. When she again refused to marry him, he allegedly proceeded to rape her.

The survivor immediately informed her family about the traumatic assault. Following this, her parents lodged a complaint at the Udupi women’s police station.

Police arrested Poojary again and produced him before the court. He has since been remanded to judicial custody.

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.
