Mangaluru: Five arrested for beating up man who expressed solidarity with Israel


Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, May 26: The police personnel of Mulky station have arrested five young men who have been accused of vandalizing a bakery and beating up the bakery owner allegedly angered by the fact that the victim had supported Israel in his Facebook post.

A youth who hails from Kundapur and currently resides at Surathkal operates Aishani Bakery at Karnad, Mulky. In a message posted in his Facebook account when referring to the recent developments involving Israel's aggression against the Palestinian activists, he allegedly had supported the Israeli action. Some locals, angered by this measure, barged into the bakery and posed death threats to the owner. They also forced the youth to apologise and recorded the apology on video, as per information.

Later, some leaders of Hindu organisations had visited the bakery, gathered information, and filed complaint with the Mulky police. The accused were arrested and produced before Panambur deputy commissioner of police upon which conditional bail was granted.

MLA Umanath Kotian, who visited the bakery in the company of BJP and Hindu organisation leaders, got information about the incident from Mulky police inspector Kusumadhar, and instructed to undertake proper investigation.

    Why middle east wars in the first place ? During liberal obama time also there were many wars in middle east to create refugee crisis send millions muslim refugees to Europe again liberal biden same story. Finally socialist Russian and communist chinese using these refugees create wars or civil wars in Europe and when the nations become weaker these socialist russians pounce on them. They then depopulate refugees with virus and vaccines. Same time communist chinese dominate and overpower south east asians countries. Already california, canada under liberal communists and newyork with liberal socialists. So depopulated world under socialist and communist is not far away. This is what these wars all about same time weapons mafia making money!

    Shammi- do you support a land for Kurdish people? Why you people speak for only one community. I never seen you guys support for whatever the reason,grabbing or injustice to other community, is it fair? One more thing Israel won that land by brave fight of their soldiers and God always with them. Dont speak one side. The present conflict is disturbing every one including Israel and at least Palestianians have many countries for sympathize and for israel none. Even they dont cry as they are brave people

    Dear Shammi, Mangalore Why do we have to cross ocean and show solidarity with someone as far? Why don't you and some who support such day light bullying have issue with illegal occupation of Kashmir which is called PoK? Why don't you guys have same issue with illegal occupation of Baluchistan by Pakistan? Most importantly, why are you supporting acts of a terrorist organization called Hamas? India has its own reasons to be equidistant (from Israel & Palestine) as it has interest far exceeding those that Israel has to provide. In the latest escalation, I don't think anybody with sense would support Hamas for its attack on Israel from densely populated areas including from hospitals, mosques and schools.

    Israel is a small country but very strong in military and confidence. Jews were driven from israel and they are wandering world over and they are butchered and suffered every where without proper leader and own country. However where ever they went they contributed a lot to that host country of thier intelligence and wisdom. Being a minority they were the scape goats for everything for Govt failures of host country. Finally they came to thier grand old origin and tried to settle in israel and faught bravely with all arab neibouring country and defeated them. Now some arabs claim that Israel is agressor and they want to take thier land back. In fact israel take that land by winning war and arabs must accept the truth and let them live peacefully as arabs have vast land and they can accomodate easily palestenians or mediate for peaceful conclusion. Now what is happening is someone like Hamas is just lit the fire and runaway and everyone suffer. Palestenians should go for peaceful mediation and find a permenant solution

    Fight against Israel is it Greed of human beings?... God chose very small country in the middle of the World for Himself and His people, rest He gave to humans. But man with such a greed not allowing God a small piece of land inspite of given vast land, nations in the world. Such narrow thinking of many or their unsatisfied greed for control and supremacy. Same being used by communist ( chinese ) for their total control of the world! Better to Pray for the Peace, instead of communists bringing the Godless Rule everywhere!( if fight among religions or race which they forment. That's is how in US liberals got power soon to be total communist control but for a short time / years, before God intervenes.)

( I am not a Jew BTW) Could you compare that population with the Nobel Prize that they got for inventions. Find out how many life saving drugs in the field of Oncology, Cardiology and Neurology is invented by Jews and Israeli companies? Are only Jews benefitting from that or the whole world??

    How come Hamas built more than 15 kms of underground tunnel, if they do not have other agenda?? We all know, how many rockets Hamas sent to Israel every day and night. It is because of Dome system that the causalities in Israel is less but they are ALL from the civilian areas. Are you telling me that Hamas is targeting military installations and Israel targeting civilians?? No, Hamas dies use the civilian area to launch the rockets and Israel gathers information using satellites and targets the launch site which is indeed civilian areas. The news reports will be only allowed to show the causalities, women and children from Palestine unlike Israel where they have access to all areas. When Palestine have no defence forces, where the rockets coming from? PLA'a Abbas or Hamas' political wing would just say, there are rough groups that is not under our control doing these mischiefs, who is answerable in to these actions? Palestinians are crying since long time for schools, hospitals and millions of dollars are given as AID from all over the world but they don't have schools or hospitals but have more than 15 kms of concrete bunker and thousands of rockets? Are they $10 dollar rockets?? Hamas have to come to the table and talk... if they think they can achieve Palestinian state by sending rockets, they are living in different world. Sorry for speaking straight.. I might have made some web enemies by doing so, but this is the fact.

    Janardhan, We don't need to judge. If someone supporting Israel, then he has his freedom to do so and vice versa. You do not need to burn or beat someone for that. Palestinians had the chance in 1948 to have the same 2 state solution that they are asking for now. The problem was that they were under Egypt and President Nasser did not want to loose his territory and no Arab leaders supported the idea. Once Egypt lost that land in 1967 to Israel, then again Palestinians started demanding the state. I personally do support Palestinian state, but the demand of Jerusalem being the Capital is perhaps too much and is the main problem that the issue is not solved yet. Jerusalem is home to MOST sacred place for Jews and holds very importance to Christians as well as Armenians. Firstly, Agreed that 3rd holiest Mosque of Islam is in Jerusalem but which comes first, Third most holy or the most holy place? Secondly, when Israel withdraw from West Bank in 2005, Hamas destroyed all Synagogues in WB, can anyone give the guarantee that they do not destroy the synagogues and churches, including Church of nativity in Bethlehem if they are given free hand?, I have teens playing football and family having picnic in the premises of Al-Aqsa mosque. Do you really treat a sacred place like this? Where did the stones come into the mosque to throw to Israeli forces?? Did the Israelites brought those stones? This is not coincident but well planned by Hamas at the end of Ramadan to start throw stones from inside the mosque.

    Why should India stand neutral now fully knowing that Israel is fighting a terrorist organization just as we are fighting terrorists across our borders? For four full decades India had supported the Palestinians under Arafat which finally resulted in signing the Oslo Accord of 1993 granting autonomy to Gaza and West Bank, after which India too established full fledged diplomatic relations with Israel. Now the tides have turned with Gaza falling into the hands of dreaded Hamas, a terrorist organization on the lines of Taliban. It’s time for India now to stand with Israel in their fight against terrorists in reciprocation of their support for us in fighting terrorism in India.
