Malali Mosque Case: Mangaluru court dismisses plea filed by mosque committee
Mangaluru: The Third Additional Civil Court on Wednesday dismissed the petition put forth by the administrative board of the Malali Masjid with regard to the ongoing controversy in relation to the mosque.
The administrative board had reportedly insisted that, since the mosque belonged to the Wakf Board, the case regarding the mosque would not be under the jurisdiction of a civil court. A court handling Wakf-related matters should judge the case, the board members had added.
They had filed a petition requesting a dismissal of the petition regarding the Malali Masjid.
The Civil Court here, however, turned down the request by the administrative board and dismissed the petition it filed.
It also carried out the hearing of the case on the mosque following the petition filed by Dhananjay and five others.

KKR defeat LSG via Super Over
Lucknow (PTI): Kolkata Knight Riders edged Lucknow Super Giants via Super Overs in a battle between two bottom-placed teams in the IPL, here on Sunday.
Chasing a modest 156, LSG suffered a batting collapse and managed to tie the contest and take it to Super Over with No. 9 Mohammed Shami striking a last-ball six against a wayward Kartik Tyagi, who leaked 16 runs in the final over.
But Sunil Narine bowled a stunning Super Over conceding just one run and taking two wickets to give KKR an easy target.
Rinku Singh then finished the chase with a boundary off first ball from Prince Yadav.
Earlier the KKR were in deep trouble with 93/7 in 15 overs but Rinku smashed a sensational 83 not out from 51 balls including four sixes in a row in the final over to lift them to 155/7.
Cameron Green (34) was the only other batter to reach double-digit scores as KKR suffered a familiar batting meltdown with Mohsin taking his maiden fifer.
In reply, LSG continued their dismal show with the bat to succumb to their fifth loss in a row.
Brief Scores:
Kolkata Knight Riders 155/7; 20 overs (Rinku Singh 83 not out, Cameron Green 34; Mohsin Khan 5/23). Lucknow Super Giants 155/8; 20 overs (Rishabh Pant 42). KKR won via Super Over.
