Impartial probe into Shiroor seer’s death sought
Kemaru, Vajradehi seers met SP
Udupi, July 21: Esha Vittala Swamiji of Kemaru Mutt and Rajashekarananda Swamiji of Vajradehi mutt on Saturday met SP Lakshman Nimbargi and urged for impartial investigation into the suspicious death of Lakshmivara Theertha Swamiji of Shiroor Mutt.
Later speaking to media, the seers said that they have appealed the SP orally about conducting impartial investigation into the death case. There might be a man or woman behind this death and they sought impartial investigation and the SP responded positively. They have also said that if needed, they would give fresh complaint. But the SP said it was not necessary. But the SP said that if the FSL and autopsy report confirmed the poisoning, it would automatically be transferred to other investigating agency and later, the police would take statements, they added.
It was not the time to question the swamiji‘s celibacy and character, because, he was not alive. It was not good for any person to speak ill against a dead person. Now, one thing should be cleared on how the poison added into the food. That should get justice. The investigation should not be misled because of false propaganda. They have urged the SP not to take such false propaganda into consideration while investigating the issue, they said.
They have not made any allegation against the seers of Ashta Mutts and even they did not speak ill about them. They have respect on them. But being the disciple of Pejawar Seer, he would request him not to speak about the lapses. The Pejawar seer who responded when Hindu youth were killed and for burning issues, should demand investigation into the death of the swamiji. Every swamiji should come together to ensure justice to another swamiji. All seers of the Ashta Mutts should join their hands together, Kemaru Swamiji said.
Rajashekarananda Swamiji said that they have met the SP just to clear the suspicion on the death of Shiroor swamiji. The law should take its course. Only police department could trace the accused. The SP responded positively to their demand, he said.
Rs 12 cr loan business
They have also discussed about the torture from a Mumbai-based businessman on loan transaction for Kanaka Mall near Kalsanka. The businessman was supposed to give Rs 10-12 crore to repay the bank loan related to Kanaka Mall, Kemaru Swamiji said.

US sanctions 15 Indian entities among 275 for supporting Russia's military-industrial base
Washington (PTI): The US has imposed sanctions on 275 individuals and entities, including 15 from India, for allegedly supporting Russia’s military-industrial base.
Companies from China, Switzerland, Thailand, and Turkiye have also been slapped with sanctions for supplying Russia with advanced technology and equipment that it desperately needs to support its war machine, the Department of Treasury said in a statement on Thursday.
In addition to disrupting global evasion networks, this action also targets domestic Russian importers and producers of key inputs and other material for Russia’s military-industrial base, the statement said.
“The United States and our allies will continue to take decisive action across the globe to stop the flow of critical tools and technologies that Russia needs to wage its illegal and immoral war against Ukraine,” Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo said.
“As evidenced by today’s action, we are unyielding in our resolve to diminish and degrade Russia’s ability to equip its war machine and stop those seeking to aid their efforts through circumvention or evasion of our sanctions and export controls,” Adeyemo said.
The State Department has also targeted sanctions evasion and circumvention in multiple third countries, including several China-based companies exporting dual-use goods that fill critical gaps in Russia’s military-industrial base and entities and individuals in Belarus related to the Lukashenka regime’s support for Russia’s defence industry, the statement said.
The US also targeted several senior Russian Ministry of Defence officials and defence companies and those supporting Russia’s future energy production and exports.
As per the list released by the Department of Treasury, the India-based companies are Abhar Technologies and Services Private Limited; Denvas Services Private Limited; Emsystech; Galaxy Bearings Ltd; Orbit Fintrade LLP; Innovio Ventures; KDG Engineering Private Limited; and Khushbu Honing Private Limited.
The Indian companies also include Lokesh Machines Limited; Pointer Electronics; RRG Engineering Technologies Private Limited; Sharpline Automation Private Limited; Shaurya Aeronautics Private Limited; Shreegee Impex Private Limited; and Shreya Life Sciences Private Limited.
On Wednesday, the US had imposed sanctions on nearly 400 entities and individuals for enabling Russia’s illegal war against Ukraine.
"The Department of State is targeting sanctions circumvention by parties in multiple third countries, several senior Russian Ministry of Defence officials and defence companies, and those that support the development of Russia’s future energy production and exports," Secretary of State Antony Blinken had said in a statement on Wednesday.
The US, he said, is imposing sanctions on several Chinese companies exporting dual-use goods that fill critical gaps in Russia’s military-industrial base as well as entities and individuals connected to the Lukashenka regime’s support for Russia’s defence industry.
