everything fine except the 2nd point. shame on you for making such comments. only bjp leaders will make such comments, commenting and blaming ladies and their dress. r u still living in 2021st???

1. If our India applies Islamic law then the accused should get capital punishment - then only we can control these type of rape and murder. Can anyone heard the same news in Islamic countries? No because of the strict law.
2. Ladies dress code is also a factor which makes the opposite sex to do this type of crime. It means Ladies who wear these type of dress also to be blamed.
3. Restriction of marriage for Temple priests. They are also human being and they should also be allowed to marry to fulfill their wishes.

Mangaluru: 32-year-old Karthik Bhat ends life after brutally killing wife and child

November 10,2024

Mangaluru: A heart-wrenching tragedy unfolded in the quiet Bellayuru village on the outskirts of Mangaluru as a man’s life ended on a railway track following an apparent double murder. Authorities from the Mulki police station identified the man as Karthik Bhat, 32, whose lifeless body was discovered on the tracks with his head positioned on the rail, indicating a tragic suicide.

Nearby, police recovered keys to a scooter and a house, which eventually led them to uncover a series of chilling events. Following the trail, officers located Bhat’s scooter parked near Mahammayi Temple. Inside the vehicle, they found documents confirming his identity, including an RC, insurance papers, and his driving license.

Their search continued to Bhat's home in Pakshikere, Kemral village, where they discovered a locked room. With the keys retrieved from the tracks, police unlocked the door, only to be confronted by a horrifying sight. The bodies of Priyanka (28) and her young son Hriday (4) lay in a pool of blood, pointing to a brutal murder that occurred just hours before Bhat’s suicide.

Initial investigations suggest Bhat, beleaguered by ongoing family disputes, committed the murders of his wife and son on the evening of November 8 before tragically ending his own life. A death note found in his diary hinted at his mental state and tragic intentions.

Priyanka’s family, residing in Shivamogga, was informed of the incident. The couple, married for six years, now leaves behind grieving relatives and unanswered questions. Police have initiated formal proceedings, collecting statements from family members as they continue their investigation into the tragic sequence of events.
