Man murdered by ex-wife and two brothers
Bengaluru: A 30-year-old Nepali man was allegedly stabbed several times and beaten with an iron rod to death by his wife and her two younger brothers over a family dispute in Whitefield police limits on Wednesday night.
The deceased, identified as Sagar, was a resident of Viveknagar and an employee of a hotel in the same area. The accused are Sagar’s wife Anitha, and her two younger brothers, Suman and Roshan.
Sagar, and Anitha, both natives of Nepal, got married a few years ago; but the couple soon sought a divorce after fighting constantly. Two months ago, Anitha filed a dowry harassment complaint against Sagar at Viveknagar police station, saying the latter would go to her house regularly demanding money from her. The harassment, however, continued.
Around 11 pm on Wednesday night, Sagar reportedly went to Anitha’s house in Gandhipura, Whitefield, and began harassing her for money.
The couple got into a heated argument while Roshan and Suman witnessed the entire quarrel. Police said the accused claimed that Sagar hit one of them when the brothers tried to intervene, making them  lose their temper.
Anitha, along with her brothers, then allegedly smashed Sagar’s head with an iron rod lying in the house and stabbed him using a kitchen knife.
Hearing the screams, the owner of the house, Yousuf Khan, rushed upstairs to find Sagar lying dead in a pool of blood. The police were called and they rushed to the spot to arrest all the three accused.
A case has been registered with Whitefield police, who are probing the matter.

Youth murdered by friends for molesting girl
Hyderabad: Four youngsters allegedly murdered their friend for misbehaving with a girl in a drunken condition at Dundigal. Vikas Purthy, 20, was a labourer in Nagarjuna Construction Company and a native of  Jarkhand. He had allegedly molested a girl, who lives in the same area as him.
His friends, who were with him at the time of the incident, took him away and murdered him, the police said. The four accused were arrested  on Thursday.
The accused are Suraj Munda, 20, Tharun Sheeku, 20, Sunil Suren, 21, and Mota Bhan Sing, 28. All are construction labourers staying at Mytas camp at Bachupally, the police said.
According to the Dundigal police, victim Vikas and the four accused had got drunk on Sunday night. “Vikas was used to eve-teasing on getting drunk. On Sunday night, he entered a woman’s house and tried to molest her.
His friends then took him out of the house and warned him. However, he was rude and asked them not to interfere in the matter,” Petbasheerabad ACP N. Srinivasa Rao said.
“When Vikas started abusing them, his friends took him near Baini lake and strangled him with a muffler,” the ACP said. The victim’s body was found on the banks of Baini lake, Bachupally last Monday with neck injuries. The accused have been booked under IPC Section 302.

Salem doc held in kidney racket
Dharmapuri: A special police team, busting an organ trade racket here, on Wedne­sday arrested a private doctor for introducing a human organ broker to patients of kidney failure.
M. Gan­­­esan, 53, a Salem-based doctor, was on Thursday sent to Salem central jail on orders of  Dharmapuri judicial court, said K. Parameswaran, DSP.
The DSP said his team had received a complaint from I. Kathavarayan, 31, of Pennagaram, whose father’s death due to kidney failure exposed the link between Ganesan and N.S. Ayyavu, a kidney broker from Sankagiri, Salem.
Parameswaran, expla­ining the doctor’s role in the kidney racket, said that Kathavarayan’s father, Iyer, 53, had been admitted in a private hospital in Salem following kidney failure and was in Ganesan’s care.
                                                                                     
                                                                     M. Gan­­­esan
The doctor suggested that Iyer arrange to obtain a kidney through unofficial sources as they may encounter delays, getting the organ via the legal channels.
He then introduced Ayyavu, now also in Salem jail, to the petitioner, Katha­varayan. Kathavarayan unsuspectingly paid Ayyavu Rs 2 lakh and Ganesan Rs 1 lakh.
The broker arrang­ed for a woman, an illegal donor, identified by the police as Chitra of Pallipalayam, Namakkal district.
An application was sent to the approval committee, seeking permission to conduct renal transplant surgery on Iyer, and Chitra was presented as the wife ofa relative of Iyer’s, alleg­edly using  fake documents.
The approval committee rejected the application as the medical report showed two diffe­r­ent blood groups for Chitra.
Ganesan told the police that he had performed more than 80 kidney transplant surgeries in the last six years. The police will probe the genuineness of the donors from whom the kidney was removed to save those 80 recipients on whom Ganesan operated.

Credit card blues for IIM professor
Bengaluru: The credit card of an IIM-Bengaluru and IIM-Ahmedabad professor’s daughter has been extensively misused at various malls and shops. The professor’s daughter lost her card last month and delayed reporting the matter to the police which allowed the accused to have a free run, said police sources. After realising that some of the shopping malls where the accused had misused the credit card had video footage of the miscreant, the professor reported the matter to the police.
Dr D.V.R. Seshadri, who teaches at the IIMs has reported the matter to the Central Crime Branch (CCB) sleuths too who have laid a manhunt for the accused. The police suspect that the accused might be a part of a professional gang of fraudsters who are experts in misusing credit cards.
The professor claims that he is using the credit card for the past eight years and has two more add-on cards in the name of his wife and daughter. His daughter who is presently staying in USA is said to have lost the add-on card during her stay in Bengaluru on May 26.
She was not aware of the loss of the card till she received alerts after the accused misused the cards at various shopping malls across the city. The accused spent Rs 45,000 over a period of three hours on May 27, said an investigating officer.
After receiving the alerts, the bank’s credit card stolen division were informed on the same day and the card was blocked. They also filed a dispute application with the bank a few days later. Later the professor’s daughter left for the USA in the first week of June. Since the professor claims to be busy teaching at both IIMs, his assistant was authorised to co-ordinate with the respective investigating agencies, the officer said.
The complainant justifies the delay in reporting the matter to the police saying they wanted to inform the bank and check with the dealers.  The victim had also visited some of the places where the credit card was misused including some food outlets and a mall.

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.
