Mangaluru, Mar 2: The Mangaluru police have admitted that Sadhwi Balika Saraswati, the main speaker at Virat Hindu Samajotsav held at Nehru Maidan in the city, made apparent attempts to communally provoke the mob through her speech.

S Murugan, the commissioner of police, Mangaluru City Commissionerate, stated that Sadhwi’s speech was provocative and dangerous.

He said that the police are thinking of filing a case against Sadhwi for speech. “The speech is indeed provocative. We are considering action,” the top cop of the city said.

The police have also taken note of the organisers extending the programme beyond 5.30 p.m., the allotted time of closure, he said.

Hours before the start of Hindu Samajotsav, the commissioner had issued a stern warning to the organizers saying that “any violation will not go unpunished.”

Mangaluru, Dec 20: City Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy has issued a high-alert warning to vehicle owners regarding a surge in cyber fraud targeting those looking to pay traffic violation fines. Fraudsters are reportedly exploiting recent government discount schemes on traffic penalties to deceive citizens.

The Scam: How Fraudsters Strike

Criminals are using SMS, WhatsApp, and social media to circulate suspicious links and APK files (Android application packages). They claim these apps allow users to pay e-challans at a discount.

•    Device Hacking: Downloading these unauthorized apps gives hackers full access to the victim's smartphone.

•    Financial Theft: Once the phone is compromised, fraudsters intercept OTPs and personal data to drain bank accounts.

•    Phishing Sites: Fake websites mimicking official portals are also being used to harvest banking credentials.

Already, two residents within Mangaluru city limits have reported significant financial losses after falling victim to these fraudulent apps.
