Threat calls to minister Gadkari: NIA team arrives in Nagpur for investigation

[ad_1]
Nagpur: A team of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) arrived in Nagpur on Tuesday to conduct a probe into threatening phone calls made to Union Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari, a police official said.
The calls were allegedly made by a murder convict, Jayesh Pujari alias Kantha, who was arrested from a jail in Belagavi, Karnataka, and booked under the anti-terror law UAPA.
A senior official of the Nagpur police said the NIA had registered a case at Bengaluru and the Mumbai unit of the central agency was directed to conduct an investigation.

A team of the NIA arrived in Nagpur from Mumbai and started collecting documents and crucial leads regarding the case, he said.
Exploring the suspected role of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistan-based terror outfit, and the underworld in the episode are the main focus of the investigation, said the official.
On January 14, Pujari made a threatening call to Gadkari’s public relations office in Nagpur, demanding Rs 100 crore and claiming to be a member of the Dawood Ibrahim gang, according to the police.
At that time, he was lodged in a jail in neighbouring Karnataka.
He made another call on March 21, threatening to harm the BJP Lok Sabha MP from Nagpur if Rs 10 crore was not paid to him, the police said.

Pujari was arrested and brought to Nagpur on March 28 from a jail in Belagavi city of Karnataka, and the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act was invoked against him.
After receiving the green signal from the Union Ministry of Home Affairs, NIA officials launched an investigation on terror angle as Pujari had relations with terrorists, including Lashkar-e-Taiba’s South Division chief Captain Naseer, said the official.
The murder convict had also taken arms training in the North-East, he added.

Salman Khan death threat: Mumbai Police issues lookout notice against accused

[ad_1]
Mumbai: Mumbai Police has issued a lookout circular (LOC) against a man accused of sending threatening email to actor Salman Khan.
As per the officials, the man allegedly emailed threatening messages to the ‘Dabangg’ star in the name of gangster Goldy Brar in March.
Salman, who has been receiving death threats for a long time now, recently opened up about how he is dealing with it.

During an appearance at India TV’ show ‘Aap Ki Adalat’, Salman also spoke about the Y+ category security which he received by Mumbai Police amid the death threat.
“Security is better than insecurity. Yes security is there. Now it is not possible to ride a bicycle on the road and go alone anywhere. And more than that, now I have this problem that when I am in traffic, then there is so much security, vehicles creating inconvenience to other people. They also give me a look. And my poor fans. There is a serious threat that’s why there is security,” he said.
Salman added, “I am doing whatever I have been told. There is a dialogue ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’ ‘they have to be lucky 100 times, I have to be lucky once’. So, I got to be very careful.”
He admitted that he often gets scared seeing “so many guns ” around him.
“I am going everywhere with full security. I know whatever is going to happen will happen no matter what you do. I believe that (points towards god) that he is there. It is not that I will start roaming freely, it is not like that. Now there are so many Sheras around me, so many guns are going around with me that I am myself scared these days,” Salman shared.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Salman will be seen sharing screen space with Katrina Kaif in ‘Tiger 3’, which will hit the theatres this Diwali.

Religious ignorance, fanaticism threat to society: KCR in Hyderabad

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao participated in the Bhumi Pooja programme of Hare Krishna Heritage Tower in Kokapet on Monday.
He laid the foundation stone in a traditional ceremony and paid tributes to Lord Srila Prabhupada.
Thanking the organisers, KCR spoke about the misuse of religion and the impact it creates in societies. “Religion is universal. There is nothing wrong with religion. Religious ignorance and fanaticism are a threat to us. Religion does not encourage us to make mistakes. But religious stupidity takes all human beings into madness and a trans,” he said.

“Religious madness promotes humans to commit inhuman acts. There is no place for violence in any religion. Religion is the cause of violence all over the world. It is not mentioned in our Hindu religion. Lord Krishna did not say about violence. Some people added religious fanaticism and created a lot of trouble,” he added.
He also thanked Hare Krishna Heritage for supporting the government by providing food to millions of children in the city.

Congress files complaint against Karnataka BJP candidate for ‘threat to kill Kharge’

[ad_1]
Panaji: The Congress in Goa on Monday filed a complaint against BJP candidate Manikanta Rathod from Karnataka for the alleged plot to assassinate Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and his family.
Goa Pradesh Congress Committee president Amit Patkar along with other office bearers filed the complaint at the Panaji police station.
Patkar speaking to reporters, alleged that a conspiracy to kill Kharge and his family was hatched by the BJP candidate from Chittapur seat Manikanta Rathod, who was heard purportedly saying so in Kannada in an audio clip.

“The BJP leader has clearly said in the audio tape that he will kill Mallikarjun Kharge and his family. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, and Election Commission are mum on this issue. We have filed a complaint and have demanded to register a FIR and probe the case,” Patkar said.
Stating that the government has failed to take action against Rathod, Patkar questioned whether “we are in a democracy”.
“This is an open threat to our leader. There are several cases against Rathod. Such a person has been given a ticket by the BJP and despite his threat to our leader, no action has been taken against him,” Patkar said.
“The murder plot is very clear from the audio recording of BJP candidate from Chittapur, Shri Manikanta Rathod, who also happens to be the ‘Blue Eyed Boy’ of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and Chief Minister of Karnataka Shri Basavaraj Bommai,” the complaint stated.
“There is a designed hatred, towards the tall leader of the country Shri Mallikarjun Kharge, on part of the BJP leadership, and that the BJP is unable to digest the fact, that having been born in a Dalit family to a factory labourer, Shri Mallikarjun Kharge has risen from the post of block Congress president to be the president of the Indian National Congress,” it said.

“The BJP leaders are openly plotting the assassination of Mallikarjun Kharge, his wife and the entire family, and that, the frustration and desperation of the BJP and its leadership has now reached dangerous proportions,” the complaint stated.

[ad_1]
Haridwar: Actor Kangana Ranaut on Sunday reacted to Salman Khan receiving death threats, saying that the country is in the safe hands of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah and therefore there is nothing to fear about security.
She said, “We are actors. Salman Khan has been provided with security by the Centre. He is getting protection from Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, then there is nothing to fear.”
“When I was threatened, I was also given security by the government, today the country is in safe hands. We have nothing to worry about,” she added.

Ranaut visited Haridwar on Sunday and performed Ganga Aarti. She would also be visiting Kedarnath Dham after this.
The actor said, “I always wanted to visit Kedarnath Dham and finally that is happening.”
Salman Khan has been provided with Y+ category security by the Mumbai Police amid the death threat.
On Saturday, Salman shared his experience and how he is dealing with it at India TV’s show ‘Aap ki Adalat’ that, “Security is better than insecurity. Yes security is there. Now it is not possible to ride a bicycle on the road and go alone anywhere. And more than that, now I have this problem that when I am in traffic, then there is so much security, vehicles creating inconvenience to other people. They also give me a look. And my poor fans.

He added, “I am doing whatever I have been told. There is a dialogue ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’ ‘they have to be lucky 100 times, I have to be lucky once’. So, I got to be very careful.”

It is not that I will start roaming freely, it is not like that. Now there are so many Shera’s around me, so many guns are going around with me that I am myself scared these days.”
Following the death threat, few days ago, a minor was arrested by Mumbai Police for allegedly threatening to kill Salman.
Mumbai Police said that a threat call was made to the Mumbai Police control room on April 10. The caller, who identified himself as Rockey Bhai from Jodhpur in Rajasthan, said he was a Gau Rakshak (cow-vigilante). The caller threatened to “eliminate” Salman Khan on April 30.
Mumbai Police added revealed the caller was found to be a minor. “As of now, we don’t think the call should be taken seriously. But we are probing why the minor behaved in such a way,” an officer said.
On March 26, one person identified as Dhakad Ram, a resident of Luni in Rajasthan’s Jodhpur district, was arrested for sending a threat mail to Salman. He was apprehended and taken into custody.
A case was registered at Bandra police station. The accused, in his mail, alleged that the superstar will meet the same fate as “Sidhu Moosewala.”
“A case has registered at Bandra police station with regard to emailed threats to kill Salman Khan. In a joint operation, Mumbai Police and Luni police teams caught the accused, Dhakad Ram, a resident of Luni in Jodhpur district,” Ishwar Chand Pareek, an officer at Luni police station of Jodhpur told ANI earlier.
Khan has been provided with Y+ category security by the Mumbai police after assessing threat perceptions. The Maharashtra government assigned security escorts to the superstar after the actor received a threat letter from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.

Hyderabad: Zenana building beside Telangana HC under demolition threat?

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Activists and heritage lovers are now worried that the historic Zenana building beside the Telangana High Court might be demolished to build a car parking space in its place. The structure has been in disuse for years and is being used as a parking space as of now.
In a letter dated April 15 from the High Court’s Registrar, administrative sanction has been accorded for dismantling ‘H-Block High Court Legal Services Committee building, dog canal and the structures abutting the same for construction of multi-level car parking and the High Court writ petition no. 735 of 2023 by order dated April 4, 2023 has also directed the registry to take immediate steps for demoliton of the old building i.e. H-Black and the adjoining structures and keep the premises ready for commencement of construction of parking black in May 2023.
The Zenana Hospital in Hyderabad is an important part of the city’s medical and social history, as it is linked to the Osmania General Hospital and the Chloroform Commission. The structure, known as the Victoria Memorial Hospital, was shifted to Petlaburj Maternity Hospital. It is now part of the High Court’s premises and was used by the fire department for the High Court and other ancillary purposes.

The Victoria Memorial Hospital is also a listed site (II-B) according to the HMDA (Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority). It cannot be demolished as it enjoys protection according to the High Court’s own ruling on the Irrum Manzil issue.
Prior to this, a part of the land beside the Govt City College was to be made into a parking lot. However, college authorities did not like the idea and started building classrooms in the space.
