Kerala Hindu woman in love with Muslim man put under house arrest in Mangaluru, rescued
Mangaluru: This could be my last video. My life is under threat and if something happens to me, my mother is responsible for it. I have suffered enough, for having loved a Muslim man for the last two years. I was sent to an orphanage run by RSS for 2 months and now I am in Mangaluru, under the custody of BJP, at a rented house. I have suffered a lot."
According to The News Minute 24-year-old Anjali Prakash, a native of Thrissur district, raised serious allegations against her mother and the Sangh Parivar, in a video released to her father's relatives.
The news portal reports, Anjali said that she was being illegally detained by her mother for being in a relationship with a Muslim man. The video was aired by Malayalam news channel MediaOne on Saturday, five days after the Mangaluru police rescued Anjali.
The woman said she shot the video from a rented house in Mangaluru she had been confined to for the past one year. Anjali further said that her mother took her to Amrita hospital in Kochi for psychiatric treatment, before bringing her to Mangaluru. She spoke about the alleged involvement of RSS and BJP members in harassing her.
Mangaluru DCP (Crime) Uma told TNM that a team of Mangaluru City Police rescued Anjali on May 1, based on a tip off.
The police also booked Anjali's mother for illegally detaining her daughter in the house. She was, however, released on interim bail.
After rescuing Anjali, Second Class Judicial Magistrate Court in Mangaluru sent Anjali to a Mahila Mandiram, after she refused to go with her mother.
Anjali's case comes months after a Yoga centre in Tripunithura came under the scanner for detaining Hindu women in relationship with men outside their religion and allegedly torturing them.

Online fraud: Hotel chef from Udupi cheated of over Rs 1 lakh by WhatsApp contact
Udupi: Udupi City Police have registered a case of online fraud after a 62-year-old hotel chef was allegedly cheated of Rs 1.13 lakh by a woman who befriended him on WhatsApp, claiming to be based in London.
The victim, identified as Pandu Kariappa Poojary, a resident of Kuthpadi in Udupi, was working at a hotel in Mangaluru.
He reportedly came into contact with a woman identifying herself as Emilda William on WhatsApp. During their interactions, she told Poojary that she planned to start a cosmetics and hotel business in India and would meet him during a visit to Mangaluru.
On April 7, Emilda sent Poojary a flight ticket from London to Delhi via WhatsApp. The following day, Poojary received a phone call from a woman who informed him that Emilda had arrived at Delhi airport carrying a demand draft worth Rs 5 crore along with other items. The caller allegedly asked him to pay Rs 70,000.
Subsequently, Poojary also received a call from Emilda, who was reportedly crying and spoke about the situation. Believing the claims, he transferred a total of Rs 1,13,300 in phases using a scanner. He later realised that he had been cheated.
