According to police said three students from GSSS Institute of Engineering and Technology for Women, Mysuru, had come to Dakshina Kannada on holiday. They decided to stay in their Muslim classmate’s house at Gokul Nagar in Koila village. Their classmate’s father, Mohammed moulvi, is a cleric at a local mosque. All four girls were supposed to leave for Mysuru on Wednesday.

On learning the presence of three Hindu girls in a Muslim cleric’s house since last Sunday the right-wing activists tried surrounded the house and created ruckus. They also spread rumours on social media that three Hindu girls were confined by Muslims in the house. The cleric was away from home during incident.

As soon as the crowd started swelling, police were informed and they came to the spot at the earliest and stopped any untoward incident. The incident occurred around 7pm and crowd was disbursed immediately.

Dakshina Kannada superintendent of police Bhushan Gulabrao Borase, who with other police officials rushed to spot, asked both community members to maintain peace and brought the situation under control. The police moved the three girls to a safe area then made arrangements to send the girls to Mysuru.

However, when groups from both communities started dispersing peacefully, a person in an inebriated condition started making remarks about other community leading to clashes. During the clash, a person was injured and is being treated a private hospital, Borase added.

Why police arrested five youths from one community whereas did not take any action on sangh parivar terrorists who created the disturbance. Why police is soft to the trouble makers. Is police working for these goondas. Who are these goondas to ask about staying of girls in their class mate home. Why police did not arrest a single person from sangh parivar.

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.
