Kolhapur, Dec 2: The special investigation team (SIT) of city police on Saturday re-arrested two men -- one suspected to be involved in arms haul case of Mumbai and another in journalist Gauri Lankesh murder case -- for their alleged role in senior Communist Party of India leader Govind Pansare murder case.

The SIT took custody of Vasudev Bhagvan Suryavanshi, accused in arms haul case, from the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Bharat Jayant Kurne, accused in Gauri Lankesh murder case, from the Karnataka Police on late Friday night and were formally arrested this morning after preliminary inquiry, sources said.

The duo were later in the day produced before a court of Magistrate Ms S A Mali, who remanded them to police custody until December seven.

During the arguments, public prosecutor Shivajirao Rane told the court that Suryavanshi was a part of murder plot and provided the motorcycle used in murder of Pansare, while Kurne supplied the weapons used in the murder to two assailants.

Since the SIT wanted to find out the whereabouts of the motorcycle used in crime and to whom Kurne had supplied the weapons, Mr Rane demanded 14 days police custody for the duo for an in-depth investigation.

Udupi: In a significant operation, the Malpe police have arrested seven Bangladeshi nationals who were illegally residing in India using forged Aadhaar cards. Udupi Superintendent of Police, Dr. Arun K, stated that the arrests followed after an immigration incident involving one of the group's members.

Muhammed Manik, one of the arrested individuals, was caught attempting to travel to Dubai via Mangaluru International Airport with a fake passport. Alert immigration officers at the airport detained him and handed him over to the Bajpe police, who registered a case. Following this, the Udupi police, acting on the information provided by the Bajpe police and immigration authorities, conducted an investigation that led to the arrest of the seven individuals in Hoode village, Paduthonse, Udupi.

The arrested individuals have been identified as Hakeem Ali (24), Sujon S K alias Farooq (19), Ismail S K (30), Kareem S K (20), Salam S K (22), Rajikul S K (20), and Mohammed Sojib (20), all hailing from Bangladesh.

The group entered India without any valid documentation and managed to acquire fake Aadhaar cards, which they used to stay in the country illegally. According to police sources, a person named Kajol from Agartala assisted them in obtaining the fraudulent Aadhaar cards, while a Bangladeshi named Usman facilitated their illegal entry into India under the guise of employment. Both Kajol and Usman are currently at large.

The Malpe police have registered cases under several sections, including Sections 19(2), 318(4), 336(2), 336(3), 340(2), and 190 of the BNS, related to fraud and illegal entry. Interrogations are ongoing as the police seek further details in connection with the case.
