Mudigere youth dies under suspicious circumstances: Murder suspected
Mudigere, July 12: A 24-year-old youth from the town has died under suspicious circumstances at his workplace at Kochi in Kerala. There has been widespread suspicion about the death.
The deceased has been identified as a resident of Chhatra maidan in the town Rizwan, son of Shaikh Ahmed. He was working as manager at the Nike shoe manufacturing company in Kochi.
On July 10, the parents’ of the deceased were informed that Rizwan hanged himself in his room in the company. When the parents visited Kochi, his body was in the mortuary. It is said that when the parents asked the company authorities about the death, they only informed that he had committed suicide.
"He had no personal reasons to commit suicide. After working for Adidas Company in Bengaluru as manager for ten years, he had joined Nike Company in Kochi last month. He visited Mudigere for the funeral of his grandmother 15 days ago. Even he had agreed for marriage. If at all he wanted to commit suicide, how would he agree for marriage,” his family members asked.
“This is not a suicide; it might be a murder. Something might have happened among the employees of the company or with others. Kochi police must carry out a thorough investigation into his death,” family members demanded.
Thousands of people had gathered near the house of Rizwan when his body was brought to town on Thursday morning at around 7 am. The funeral took place in the afternoon.

UP: Misled by GPS navigation, car falls into river from partially constructed bridge, 3 dead
Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.
The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.
"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.
The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.
There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.
Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.
The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
