New Delhi: Alfiya Pathan (81+kg) claimed the country’s first gold medal as five others stormed into the finals of the 30th Adriatic Pearl Tournament in Budva, Montenegro.

Babyrojisana Chanu (51kg), Vinka (60kg), Arundhati (69kg), and Sanamacha Chanu (75kg) have made the finals in their respective categories.
Srinivasamurthy had submitted before the Supreme Court that though the accused had committed serious offenses, they had been released on bail. “On what grounds they are granted bail,” he said and sought quashing of the bail order of the Karnataka High Court. The petitioner, Srinavasmurthy, said that the accused have been instrumental in mobilizing persons to vandalize and burn down his house as also to create a communal situation.

“Sampath, who lost Assembly polls from the neighboring, C V Raman Nagar Assembly constituency, harbored ill-will due to political reasons. The accused created unrest and law and order situation on the pretext of an alleged derogatory post by his nephew,” he claimed in his petition. Against Sampath and Abdul, a case was registered under various offenses under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and others, for allegedly involved in the East Bengaluru violence case.

The prosecution said that at least 3,000 people allegedly went on a rampage in August 2020, setting ablaze houses of Pulakeshinagar Congress MLA, Srinivasamurthy, and his sister in connection with certain alleged inflammatory social media post by his nephew.
