MLA UT Khader hails work efficiency of Udupi police
Cattle trader’s suspicious death
Udupi, June 2: Former minister and Mangaluru MLA UT Khader hailed the efforts of the Udupi police for the speedy investigation into the suspicious death of cattle trader Hussainabba of Jokatte.
Speaking to Varthabharati, he said that the Udupi SP has taken the issue seriously and suspended a PSI who has failed to discharge his duties properly. Moreover, the SP has taken action against the accused in the incident. These measures would definitely boost the confidence among people, he said.
Apart from the police, the family members of Hussainabba and the villagers have exhibited their maturity without taking the incident into excess. This would definitely spread a good message to the society, he said.
Unfortunately, some people would get happiness just by blowing such sensitive incidents out of proportion and create law and order situation in the society which is condemnable. Mangaluru police have arrested two persons on charges of spreading rumours. If the police took suitable decisions on time, anti-social elements could be controlled efficiently, he said.

SC stays Telangana HC order granting one-week transit anticipatory bail to Pawan Khera
New Delhi (PTI): In a setback to Congress leader Pawan Khera, the Supreme Court on Wednesday stayed the Telangana High Court order granting him one-week transit anticipatory bail in a case registered for levelling allegations against Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's wife.
A bench of Justices J K Maheshwari and A S Chandurkar issued notice to Khera and others seeking their responses on the plea filed by the Assam government challenging the Telangana High Court order.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Assam government, told the bench that Khera moving Telangana High Court for bail in a case registered in Assam was a "complete abuse of process" and this would be a case of "forum choosing".
The bench, while issuing notice on the plea, said that operation of the high court order would remain stayed.
It posted the matter for hearing after three weeks.
On April 10, the high court granted one-week transit anticipatory bail to Khera with certain conditions and gave him a week to file an application before the court concerned.
The Congress leader had, on April 5, in a press conference alleged that Assam CM's wife, Riniki Bhuyan Sarma, has multiple passports and foreign property, which were not declared in the chief minister's election affidavit for the April 9 Assembly polls in that state.
The Sarmas had rejected the allegations as false and fabricated.
The case against Khera was registered at the Guwahati Crime Branch Police Station under several sections of the BNS sections, including 175 (false statement in connection with an election), 35 (Right of private defence of the body and of property) and 318 (cheating).
