Mangalore, Dec 17: The International Humanists and Ethical Union has urged the State government to probe into cases of rape, murder and unnatural deaths, which had taken place under the Ujire police station limits in Dakshina Kannada district from 1986 to 2012.

Addressing a news conference on Monday Babu Gogineni from London based International Humanist and Ethical Union said that even after 14 months of the brutal rape and murder of a student of SDM Pre-University College, the police have neither submitted a charge sheet to the Child Welfare Committee nor have they nabbed the rapists.

“Justice has been denied to victim and we have decided to make the victim's parents address the entire nation from Delhi soon. All steps will be taken to raise voice for justice and also to take up the matter with international human rights organizations,” said Babu Gogineni adding that Ujire - Dharmasthal has recorded 464 of unnatural deaths over the past ten years and no investigation has taken place so far.

“Even after protesting for justice for innocent minor girl's death, government has failed to handover the inquiry to CBI. The investigation has to be taken up under the surveillance of Supreme Court and it must be a neutral investigation. However, role of influential people in this case is evident by the way the case is being handled,” he said lauding the family of rape and murder case victim of Ujire for courageously fighting for justice.

Prof Narendra Nayak from the Federation of humanists Organisation said that there are several religious places in the district but so many unnatural deaths have not been reported in any such religious centre.

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.

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.
