Mangaluru: Former minister and MLA UT Khader has demanded a detailed investigation into the suspicious death of a cattle trader which occurred on Wednesday at Perdur in Udupi district.

“As murder is strongly suspected behind the death case of Jokatte’s Hussainabba, the police must carry out a thorough investigation and take stringent action against the culprits,” Khader said.

Speaking to 'Varthabharathi' about the incident, he said “Udupi police have already initiated the investigation. As murder is suspected, the investigation must also be carried in that direction. If Hussainabba died of a heart attack, then the circumstances that led to it should be investigated. “In any case, police should not allow anyone to take law in their hands,” he warned.
