Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, Jul 19: A six-member gang which entered the cattle shed belonging to Purushotham from Moodushedde near here threatened family members by brandishing their swords. The gang succeeded in taking away two milking jersey cows.

Value of the cows so stolen has been estimated at Rs 45,000.

The miscreants arrived at the cattle shed at about 3 am on Tuesday July 17. When the family members woke up at the sound made by the animals and went to check, the miscreants threatened them by pointing the swords they possessed with them. They also killed the dog of the family and created an environment of terror. They took away the two cows forcefully. The family members said that all the gang members were aged between 25 and 30.

A total of 21 cows have been stolen so far from the area since sometime. The locals have sought protection from the police. Police officials visited the spot and conducted scrutiny. A case about this theft was registered in Kavoor police station.

MLA, Umanath Kotian, visited the spot. He urged the police to nab the cattle thieves and book them under the Goonda Act.

    This might be true or this might be stage managed show, as election are nearing.

    First of all, the owner of the cows, say, at 3.00 am , the sword wielding gang threaten the family members and stole 2 jersey cows. Even if it is true, the operation will take at least 30 minutes. Every family will have one or 2 minimum mobile telephone. Why they have not informed the police nor the neighbours. At least the neighbour would have called others too and would have come to help this family.


    Immediate visit by local MLA also give rise to doubts, might be genuine, might be stage managed show.

    If the facts of cow stealing is real, then it is really a matter of seriousness. If the police are inactive means, then might be police and these cow thieves are hand in gloves.

    I still remember in my mothers house, they used have 3 local dogs, as they are from village, agriculturist, had more than 3 to 4 cows and they too come under Karkala Taluk.

    No one is blaming any community here. Stealing cow was a earlier issue, now there is armed robbery happening everywhere for cow. I don't think it will end there.
    The greed to make fast money will push them to start armed robbery of people for valuables. Our police was in the first case controlled by appeasement politicians not to act against theft, now its a bigger organized problem and police have no clue.
    Its not about religions, armed robbery is a serious matter.

    ISIS beliews in Islamic ideology... They wanted to create a Islamic caliphate
    ISIS philosophy is represented by the symbolism in the Black Standard variant of the legendary battle flag of Prophet Muhammad that it has adopted: the flag shows the Seal of Muhammad within a white circle, with the phrase above it, "There is no god but Allah".
    It had openly said that they wanted all to foll sharia... Now sharia comes in Quran....

    ISIS was initially started with jobless Saddam Hussain's Sunni military soldiers. When USA backed out from Iraq majority of the elected govt was Shia Muslims. Hence there was agitation and revolt from powerful Sunni community which was thriving under Saddam Hussein. when they got weapons back in their hands its obvious they felt powerful and went ransack for whatever cause they were brainwashed for.
    Its a child's play for CIA to do anything in Middle East. If they were serious would they have left the ISIS to grow so big?

    With general elections nearing, many such orchestrated incidents will happen to polarize people and create an environment of hate.

    This should be thoroughly investigated and whoever is responsible should be brought to book, exposed and punished and made an example of.

    Of-course cow is an animal but remember it becomes part of the family & the owner of it will have an emotional attachment like with any other family member. Any domesticated animal owners will know the pain of loosing a beloved pet. The laws should be changed and culprits must ROT in jail for such acts.

    Dear Umanath Kotian,

    Encourage and give subsidies to people to increase foreign petthas/ಪೆತ್ತಗಳು/cows population in the state.

    Ask the coalition government to purchase foreign petthas/ಪೆತ್ತಗಳು/Cows so that there will be plenty of milk, and gober / dung for agriculture.

    WE ALSO NEED CATTLE SLAUGHTER HOUSES IN EACH AND EVERY TALUKS OF THE DISTRICTS SO AS TO MEET SUPPLY AND DEMAND BALANCED FOR THE MEAT EATERS.

    PRESENTLY MEAT PRICES ARE VERY HIGH.

    Finally, while selling one foreign petthas/ಪೆತ್ತಗಳು/cow will yield the family Rs. 45,000/- which is worth to a family.

    What the contry petthas/ಪೆತ್ತಗಳು/cows will give naal konde ನಾಲ್ ಕೊಂಡೆ ಪೆರ್ ಮಾತ್ರ.

    DEAR COUNTRYMEN AND CITIZENS AND MY DEAR FRIENDS DON'T ROB ANYBODY'S COWS / CATTLE.

    YOU PEOPLE ALSO CAN BRING UP AND PRESERVE COWS/ಪೆತ್ತಗಳು SO THAT YOU WILL GET GOOD DOMESTIC MILK WITHOUT HAVING CHEMICALS & PRESERVATIVES FOR YOUR USE AND FOR SELLING.

    SUPPOSE YOU ARE ROBING , YOU ARE BREAKING SEVENTH/7TH COMMANDMENT OF GOD WHICH IS PUNISHABLE. NO ESCAPE.

    YOU WILL GET PUNISHMENT HERE FOR BREAKING THE LAW AND SUPPOSE LET LOOSE HERE,

    GOD WILL PUNISH YOU TO HELL.

    Day time selling ganja, night time stealing cows, once a month going to Dubai and coming back with smuggled gold. Lots of money. No need for education.
    No doubt they can afford luxury cars and and apartments in Mangalore.
    With our weak judicial system and political connections they will be released soon ,
    But definitely on the day of judgement they will be questioned how they earned this money . They can't escape from punishment there. That is certain.
