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.

Kantara mimicking case: HC extends interim relief given to actor Ranveer Singh till March 9
Bengaluru (PTI): The Karnataka High Court on Monday extended the interim relief given to Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh till March 9, in a case related to mimicking a character from the movie, 'Kantara Chapter-1', and allegedly mocking a deity.
The actor had approached the High Court seeking the quashing of the FIR against him for mimicking Rishab Shetty's role as 'Chavunda' deity in the movie.
While mimicking, Singh had called the deity a "ghost". The actor was asked to appear before the court in person on Monday.
Appearing on behalf of the actor, his counsel Sajjan Poovayya said Singh was stuck in London and was unable to reach Bengaluru due to the conflict in West Asia.
The complainant, who is a lawyer, alleged that his religious sentiments were hurt by calling the deity a ghost. On the directions of a local Court, the police registered a case against the actor.
The High Court on February 24 granted interim relief to the actor with directions to the police not to take any coercive steps against him.
