Bantwal: Elderly mother files complaint against son, his wife, says tied, assaulted inside toilet
Bantwal: An elderly woman has filed a police complaint against her son and daughter-in-law at the Bantwal Town Police Station, accusing the two of tying her inside the toilet and subjecting her to physical torture.
The incident is said to have occurred at the Banjanapadav Karavali in Bantwal Taluk, and the elderly complainant has been identified as Girija (70).
“I was living with my son Hariram and daughter-in-law Pooja at Karavali. In January, I had taken a fall and hurt my hip. Since then, I have been tied inside the toilet and tortured by them”, the victimized elderly mother Girija has accused in the complaint.
Despite having fallen and hurt my hip, neither my son nor my daughter-in-law provided me with medical treatment. After tying me inside the toilet, they used to just offer me one meal a day and one glass of tea. Both used to constantly shout at me saying ‘the old woman is not dying’, abusing me. My daughter-in-law used to scold me in Tulu saying ‘I will not give you food, eat dirt and die’ if I asked for food out of extreme hunger”, the victim revealed in her complaint at the police station.
Upon receiving information about a senior citizen being abused, the Senior Citizen Committee people rescued Girija from the toilet. Her rescuers tended to her and later admitted her to the Wenlock hospital in Mangaluru, where she is currently receiving treatment, the police informed.
The police have recorded a complaint in this regard and undertaken an inquiry.

Trump says he ‘hasn’t even thought about’ continuing Iran ceasefire
Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
