Three alleged members of Popular Front of India (PFI) murdered 34-year-old Praveen outside his chicken shop off the Bellare-Sullia Road on July 26. Following a demand by his wife for severe action against the perpetrators, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai decided to hand over the case to the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
Ten persons, including the three alleged assailants, were arrested by Dakshina Kannada police. The NIA searched multiple locations of PFI in Karnataka and across India. The NIA is on the lookout for persons who had a role in the murder.
Meanwhile, Dakshina Kannada Member of Parliament and State BJP president Nalin Kumar Kateel on Wednesday November 2 laid the foundation stone for construction of a new house for Praveen’s elderly parents and wife Nutan Kumari. The old tiled roof house has been demolished. It will be replaced by a three-bedroom house spread over 2,000 square feet in Nettaru village near Bellare.
Mr. Kateel handed to a building contractor a cheque for part payment of the cost of construction. The new house will be ready by May 2023. Apart from funds collected by the BJP, Mr. Kateel has personally contributed towards construction of the new house, a State-level BJP party functionary said.
