Mangaluru: A 25-year-old youth killed and three others injured in a horrible road accident near Adyar Kannur Masjid on the outskirts of the city on Tuesday night.
The deceased has been identified as Mohammad Farooq, a resident of Adyar. Hanif, Junaid, Sarfraz were injured and admitted to a private hospital for treatment.
The accident occurred when a speeding car rammed into another vehicle that was parked near the masjid. The sad point is that Farooq, who was on a bike, came and sat in the car to take shelter from the rain. But he was unaware that his death was waiting for him there.
The intensity of the accident was such that the car hit a rickshaw that was parked inside the masjid.
The assistant police commissioner of Mangaluru (Traffic) visited the spot and carried out the investigation.

Belagavi: A social media post claiming that members of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) attacked the residence of Colonel Sofia Qureshi’s husband in Konnur village, Gokak taluk, has been termed false by Belagavi Superintendent of Police Bhimashankar Guled.
The post, shared from an X (formerly Twitter) account named Anees Uddin, quickly went viral online. However, SP Guled clarified that the claim about an RSS-led attack on the residence of Colonel Qureshi's father-in-law is entirely baseless.
SP Guled urged the public not to fall for such misinformation being spread on social media. He added that adequate police protection has been provided to the house in Konnur following the viral rumours.
Gokak Circle Police Inspector Suresh R.B. visited the spot and conducted an inspection to ensure peace in the area.
