The RSS backed Mr Kateel has been now accused of separating a woman from her husband and developing illicit sexual relationship with her.

Satish Shetty, the estranged husband of the woman, who allegedly developed extra marital affair with Mr Kateel , has now broken silence  and filed a complaint at Mangalore North Police Station against his estranged wife, her brother and Mr Kateel.

According to the complainant, around five years ago, when there was a small dispute between him and his wife in Mumbai, the latter returned to Mangalore and contacted their family friend Mr Kateel, who utilized the opportunity to use her for sexual pleasure.

Mr Shetty said that instead of trying to unite the couple, Mr Kateel despite being a family friend convinced the woman to file a false dowry-harassment complaint him and his mother and gradually succeeded to nullify the marriage.

“Call records prove that my estranged wife used to talk with Mr Kateel for hours together especially during nights,” Mr Shetty said adding that she and Mr Kateel had constant illicit sexual relationship.

Stating that the illicit relationship has been continuing for a long time, the victim said, on one occasion his estranged wife travelled from Udupi to Mangalore to meet Mr Kateel and after returning to Udupi she boarded a bus to Bangalore. The very next day, i.e. on January 5, 2014, the Dakshina Kannada MP also went Bangalore and stayed with her.

Mr Shetty said that he showed maximum patience in this issue and tried not to break silence prior to the polls as he wanted to safeguard the image of Hindu outfits and BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.

Police has booked Mr Kateel, the accused woman and her brother under sections 120 (criminal conspiracy), 497 (adultery), and 506 (criminal intimidation) based on the complaint of Mr Shetty and launched an investigation.

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.

Mangaluru, Dec 3: A group of Congress workers gathered at the Mangaluru International Airport on Wednesday to welcome AICC general secretary K C Venugopal, but the reception quickly turned into a display of support for Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar.

Venugopal arrived in the city to participate in the centenary commemoration of the historic dialogue between Mahatma Gandhi and Narayana Guru. The event, organised by the Sivagiri Mutt, Varkala, in association with the Mangalore University Sri Narayana Guru Study Chair, is being held on the university’s Konaje campus.

KPCC general secretary Mithun Rai and several party workers had assembled at the airport to receive Venugopal. However, the moment he stepped out, workers began raising slogans backing Shivakumar.

The university programme will be inaugurated by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

This show of support comes just a day after Siddaramaiah remarked that Shivakumar would lead the government “when the high command decides.” The chief minister made the comment after a breakfast meeting at Shivakumar’s residence—another public display of camaraderie between the two leaders amid ongoing attempts by the party high command to downplay their leadership rivalry.

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.
