Belagavi Dec 25: Small Scale Industries and district in-charge Minister Ramesh Jarkiholi directed police officials to try hard to maintain peace, law and order in Belagavi city.

Speaking to reporters after an official meeting with district officials in Belagavi, on Monday, Jarkiholi said that police should arrest troublemakers irrespective of how influential they are.

"It doesn't matter which community or faction the rabble-rousers belong to. You must take action against those responsible for the breach of peace. Or else the government will take action against you," he warned police and other officers.

"Whether it is a MLA or MLC, the Congress party does not create differences between communities. Everybody knows who does it," the minister said alluding to BJP's heightened activism.

"I have asked the police to install CCTV cameras at all sensitive places in the city and high mast lighting too. That will done, whatever the cost," Jarkiholi assured media people.

‘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.
