Mudigere, September 21: Three labourers from Assam who were working in a coffee plantation, killed their fellow labourer for petty reasons and buried his body before fleeing to Assam.

Following this incident, Gonibeedu police brought the accused from Assam and exhumed the body in front of the officials, conducted postmortem and buried in the Mudigere town Khabaristan.

Four labourers from Assam have been working in the coffee plantation belonging to M.C. Dinesh at Devavrunda village. On September 7, they have got their wages from Dinesh and consumed liquor. They developed quarrel among themselves related to wage and when their clash reached peak, remaining three killed Matlab Ali (17) and buried the body and fled the village.  

While going back to Assam, among three, Bilal (21) missed in the train and remaining two Vaidulla (20) and Mohidulla (20) reached their village. When Matlab Ali did not come along with those two, Ali parents enquired them. In the beginning, the accused said that Bilal and Ali missed in the train. Suspecting their behavior, Matlab Ali father Talibun and mother Muktabunnisa lodged a complaint in the local police station.

When the police arrested the two and interrogated them, they spilled the beans saying that Bilal was missing in the train, but they killed Matlab Ali in the coffee plantation and buried his body. Based on this, Assam police informed the Gonibeedu police who rushed to Assam and brought the accused back to Gonibeedu. PSI Rakesh and three other police visited Assam and brought the accused back. The police sources said that the accused and the victim belong to Uzagam village in Durang district in Assam.

The body was exhumed in front of the doctors and Ali’s parents. After the postmortem, the body was handed over to his parents. Social activist Fish Monu and his team helped the Ali’s parents to bury the body in the Khabaristan at Mudigere on Friday.

Prayagraj: The Allahabad High Court has instructed the Union Home Ministry to decide on a petition regarding Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Indian citizenship. The Bench, led by Justice Attau Rahman Masoodi and Justice Subhash Vidyarthi, set a deadline of December 19, 2024, for the government to update the Court on the matter.

The petition, filed by S Vignesh Shishir, requests a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into allegations that Rahul Gandhi holds British citizenship. Shishir claims that evidence, including confidential emails shared by VSS Sarma, suggests Gandhi may be a British citizen. However, due to UK data protection laws, the British government has not disclosed full details without Gandhi's consent.

During the November 25 hearing, Deputy Solicitor General SB Pandey informed the Court that the Home Ministry is reviewing the representation. The Court directed the government to report on the status of the petition by the next hearing on December 19.

A similar petition challenging Rahul Gandhi's citizenship is pending before the Delhi High Court, where the matter will be heard after the Allahabad High Court's proceedings.
