Bengaluru, Oct 4: A special court of Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has issued nonbailable warrants (NBW) against Vijayanagara MLA Anand Singh and Ballari Rural MLA Nagendra in the case of illegal transportation of iron ore from Belekeri port.

The NBW was issued as the two accused failed to appear before the court for two consecutive hearings. They are expected appear in court on Thursday.

The CBI has submitted its charge sheet in the case. The court is holding hearings every day. The absence of the two MLAs has led to delay in their charging.

Anand Singh has been accused of selling the illegally transported ore to two companies which sold them to SB Minerals. The anti-corruption wing of CBI had arrested Singh in 2013. Later, the Lokayukta SIT had also arrested him.

Nagendra, who is a partner in Eagleton Traders, has also been facing the same charges and he was arrested by CBI as well as Lokayukta SIT.

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.
