Asaduddin Owaisi surrenders before court

Hyderabad: MIM chief and MP Asaduddin Owaisi surrendered before the police here in connection with a case booked against him in 2005 by the Patancheru police for abusing the then Medak district collector.Owaisi was the first accused in the case and there was a non-bailable warrant against him which the police wanted to execute. His brother Akbaruddin Owaisi is the second accused and was produced before court on Thursday in the same case.Medak top cops had earlier indicated that they could arrest the MIM president as he had not appeared before the court since 2010.
The Owaisi brothers, who are first and second accused in the case, have failed to appear before the court since 2010 in this case. We brought Akbaruddin to the court through a prisoner transfer warrant (as the MIM leader is in custody because of the hate speech case), a top official said.
According to Patancheru police, the Owaisi brothers, along with other MLAs, had protested against then Medak collector Anil Kumar Singhal during road-widening works at Mutangi village of Patancheru mandal on April 16 in 2005. They had obstructed officials from carrying out their duties alleging that a place of worship was being damaged, the police said.
The Owaisi brothers had surrendered in court in 2009, and got bail. However, they had failed to appear before the court for the next hearings though four other MIM MLAs, who were also accused in the case, had turned up, the police said.
The case booked against them was under Sections 147 (punishment for rioting) 153 A (promoting enmity between groups), 353 (assault on public servant obstructing him of discharging duties), 290 (punishment for public nuisance), 295 (deliberate acts to outrage religious feelings) and 506 (criminal intimidation) among others.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
