Mangaluru Arya Samaj condemns assault on Swamy Agnivesh
Mangaluru, July 18: The Mangaluru Arya Samaj has condemned the attack on Swami Agnivesh who has been toiling for the welfare of the tribal communities, by a team of youths in Jharkhand.
Speaking to reporters at the Arya Samaj here on Wednesday, Samaj president Dinakar Shetty said that the attack was systematically planned to tarnish the image of Swami Agnivesh who has been striving hard for the welfare of tribals, poor and backward classes in the society. The Swami Agnivesh has respected the mankind and been treating all equally. For no reason, he would become the anti-Hindu. But some miscreants have attacked on him which is an insult to the Hindu society, he said.
Both Jharkhand and the central governments should take legal action against the accused immediately. Swami Agnivesh should be given police protection. Such kind of inhuman attacks on an aged swamiji would not bring laurels to Hindus. All Arya Samajas in the country were called to protest this attack against the swamiji. If the governments failed to arrest the accused immediately, they would intensify their protest across the country, he warned.
Arya Samaj members Indranath, Deepak Manjeshwar, Dhananjay Arya, Harinakshi, Purohit Lokesh Thokkottu and others were present.
Protest in front of DC office on July 21
Condemning the attack on the swamiji and demanding the arrest of the accused, the Arya Samaj members would stage a protest in front of the deputy commissioner’s office here on July 21 at 11 am. A memorandum would be submitted to both Jharkhand and central governments. They would also prevail upon the central government to use Goonda Act against the accused, he said.

Belagavi youth’s murder case projected as road accident, cracked in Uttara Kannada; Three arrested
Karwar: Uttara Kannada police have cracked a murder case in which a Belagavi youth was killed and his body burnt inside a car to make it appear like a road accident.
Addressing a press meet in the city, Superintendent of Police Deepan M.N. said three accused from Old Hubballi have been arrested in connection with the case. The crime was a pre-planned act driven by personal enmity, he said.
The case came to light on April 8 morning when a car (KA-04/MJ-8996) was found completely burnt in a roadside ditch near Talekumbri bus stand in Yellapur. Only charred human remains were found inside the vehicle. Initially, it was suspected to be an accident caused by overspeeding, and a case was registered at Yellapur police station based on a complaint filed by the deceased’s father, Jagannath Dhapale.
However, the father later expressed suspicion that his son’s death was not accidental, prompting a detailed investigation.
Taking the matter seriously, two special teams were formed under the leadership of Yellapur Inspector Ramesh Hanapur. On analysing technical evidence and CCTV footage, police found that it was a planned murder.
The accused have been identified as Abdul Raheem Basheer Ahmed Mujawar (32), Maulasab Bavahan Wada (36) and Dadapeer alias Aftab Mehboob Saab Balasangi (22), all chicken traders from Old Hubballi.
Police have seized the car used in the crime along with two scooters. The accused have been remanded to judicial custody.
Investigations revealed that the accused killed Nitesh Dhapale due to personal enmity and later set the car on fire along with the body to project it as an accident.
SP Deepan M.N. appreciated the efforts of Inspector Ramesh Hanapur, PSIs Rajashekhar Vandali and Siddappa Gudi, and the entire team for solving the complex case.
