Mangaluru: Three sons detained for allegedly provoking mother to commit suicide
Mulki: Three men were detained by police on Friday, on charges of provoking their 44-year-old mother, Sumithra, to allegedly commit suicide by hanging herself at home here. The incident occurred on Thursday night in the Korambettu Colony of Lingappayya Forest Region, KS Rao Nagar.
The unfortunate episode stemmed from a dispute between Sumithra's sons Manjunath (25), Sanjeeva (22), and Prahlad alias Prabhu (19). Under the influence of alcohol, the three young men engaged in a heated argument over a seemingly trivial matter around 11:30 pm that night.
The ongoing fight between her sons appeared to have taken a toll on Sumithra's mental well-being. Reportedly overwhelmed by the situation, she tragically decided to take her own life. Using a saree, she hanged herself from a beam in one of the rooms.
In the wake of Sumithra's death, a police case has been registered. Her sons now face accusations of incitement to commit suicide. Authorities, including the Panambur Assistant Commissioner of Police and Mulki police officers, have launched an investigation into the incident.

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.
