Attempt for third marriage: One held
Mangaluru, August 24: The city police have arrested a person on charges of attempting for third marriage here on Friday.
The accused is identified as Ashok L Suvarna (40) of Jeppinamogaru Karambettu in the city. Earlier, he had married twice. When those marriages were continued for long time, he has decided to marry third time. So, he did not reveal about his previous marriages while trying to get marry for the third time.
For the third marriage, Kumuda and Veena, sisters of the accused, had spoken to the mother of bride at Mulki. Believing their words, the family members of the bride agreed for the marriage.
But the family members of Ashok were in a hurry for engagement and marriage. They have finished the engagement on August 24 and fixed the time for marriage on August 26. This urgency has created suspicion and the family members of the bride suspected their moves. When they collected information about Ashok, they came to know about him and his two marriages. Both the wives were not with him now. Following this, the family members of the bride lodged a complaint at Kankanady police who arrested the accused. The police also booked cases against Kumuda and Veena for helping their brother to get marry for the third time hiding the truth. The police are searching for Kumuda and Veena who are at large.

Another North Goa nightclub sealed; Kejriwal says corruption led to fire tragedy
Panaji (PTI): As part of a crackdown against tourist establishments violating laws and safety norms in the aftermath of the Arpora fire tragedy, Goa authorities on Saturday sealed a renowned club at Vagator and revoked the fire department NOC of another club.
Cafe CO2 Goa, located on a cliff overlooking the Arabian Sea at Vagator beach in North Goa, was sealed. The move came two days after Goya Club, also in Vagator, was shut down for alleged violations of rules.
Elsewhere, campaigning for local body polls, AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal said the fire incident at Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub at Arpora, which claimed 25 lives on December 6, happened because the BJP government in the state was corrupt.
An inspection of Cafe CO2 Goa by a state government-appointed team revealed that the establishment, with a seating capacity of 250, did not possess a no-objection certificate (NOC) of the Fire and Emergency Services Department. The club, which sits atop Ozrant Cliff, also did not have structural stability, the team found.
The Fire and Emergency Services on Saturday also revoked the NOC issued to Diaz Pool Club and Bar at Anjuna as the fire extinguishers installed in the establishment were found to be inadequate, said divisional fire officer Shripad Gawas.
A notice was issued to Nitin Wadhwa, the partner of the club, he said in the order.
Campaigning at Chimbel village near Panaji in support of his party's Zilla Panchayat election candidate, Aam Aadmi Party leader Kejriwal said the nightclub fire at Arpora happened because of the "corruption of the Pramod Sawant-led state government."
"Why this fire incident happened? I read in the newspapers that the nightclub had no occupancy certificate, no building licence, no excise licence, no construction licence or trade licence. The entire club was illegal but still it was going on," he said.
"How could it go on? Couldn't Pramod Sawant or anyone else see it? I was told that hafta (bribe) was being paid," the former Delhi chief minister said.
A person can not work without bribing officials in the coastal state, Kejriwal said, alleging that officers, MLAs and even ministers are accepting bribes.
