Mangaluru, Jan 4: In a serious allegation, BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa has accused a senior Congress leader and state minister of having a hand in the murder of Deepak Rao, who hacked to death by miscreants at Katipalla in Mangaluru yesterday.

Addressing a press meet before the Parivartana Yatre on Thursday in Ballari, the former chief minister held Dakshina Kannada district in-charge minister B Ramanath Rai completely responsible for all the murders and untoward incidents in the coastal district. He went on to claim that Rai has hand in Rao’s cold blooded murder.

Yeddyurappa pointed out that the law and order situation in the state had worsened. "Hindu activists are being murdered in the state as in Kerala. We will soon discuss this issue and act on it," he said.

He said the party had shortlisted 100 candidates for the upcoming polls after discussions with local leaders.

Either one of this leader is criminal? If we believe what Mr Yeddy said and he has proof then he should prove and put mr Ramanath Rai behind Bars. If he cannot then mr ramanat rai should put defemation case on him just like Mr arun jetly has put on Mr keriwal and one of his suppoter has put on Mr Rahul Gandhi. If Mr yeddy is telling lie then he is playing with sentiments of people in the state.

Really sad, There can be only blame game in this country. youth is killed nobody bothered. All the groups can do strike, call for bandh. nobody is bothered to help the family or the Government in finding the culprit. Law will take its course of action. Blocking the group & creating problem for public will not help. Wait for the verdict. Forget everything & anything, there is no value for life in this world. Killing has become common & easy in this world. May Almighty protect all of us.

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.
