BUDA chief held, released

It was said that BUDA President had allegedly assaulted one Jagath alias Jagadeesh Poojary by barging into his house on Sunday. Based on the complaint, the police had filed cases against nine persons. Jagath was a contractor and was carrying out the work related to the Bantwal TMC for the last 10 years. Unfortunately, he did not get the contract this time.

In a complaint, Jagath had alleged that a four member gang had entered his house on Sunday and assaulted him and his wife and kids. The miscreants had also broken the chairs.
In the meantime, Govind Prabhu said that his name has been unnecessarily dragged into the case. Other accused are still absconding.

MLA B Ramanath Rai said that BUDA President A Govinda Prabhu should tender resignation to the post which he is holding for allegedly entering into the house of a electrical contractor and assaulting him.

Gold stolen

Some unindetified miscreants gained entry into a house and decamped with gold worth Rs 40,000 at Ambadebettu in Shivalli. The house belongs to one Agnes D’Souza. A case has been registered.
