Bengaluru: The High Court of Karnataka on Friday reserved its judgement on the maintainability of a suit pending before a court in Mangaluru, seeking a survey of a mosque.
The suit is before the III Additional Civil Court in Mangaluru and is regarding the Assayed Abdullahi Madani mosque in Malali, Thenka Ulipady village, near Mangaluru.
Architecture resembling a temple was allegedly found during renovation of the mosque.
T A Dhananjaya and B A Manoj Kumar filed the suit seeking a survey of the mosque to verify if part of it is a temple.
The local court in Mangaluru was hearing arguments about whether such a suit was maintainable.

The HC heard arguments of both the petitioners and the mosque authorities and on Thursday reserved its judgement for pronunciation.
