Bengaluru: BJP demands U T Khader's resignation over Zubair's murder in Ullal


From Our Special Correspondent
Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru

Bengaluru, Oct 5: Strongly condemning the murder of BJP worker Mohammed Zubair in Ullal near Mangaluru last evening, former MLC G Madhusudhan and Anwar Manippady have demanded the resignation of Karnataka’s Food and Civil Supplies Minister U T Khader owning moral responsibility for the incident.

"This is the 13th murder of a nationalist in Dakshina Kannada district," the BJP leaders said addressing a news conference in Bengaluru on Thursday.

Zubair was a member of the Ullal Mandal Committee of the BJP and the cold-blooded and brutal murder is highly condemnable, they said.

"We have every reason to suspect that this heinous killing has been perpetrated by the drug mafia," BJP leaders said.

Explaining the cause for this barbaric killing, Anwar Manippady said, Zubair had complained to the police against members of Target Group, a dubious organisation of anti-social elements, who are part of the dreaded drug mafia.

Following Zubair’s complaint, he said some members of the Target Group were arrested and remanded to judicial custody. Recently they had come out of the jail.

"We strongly suspect that the killing has been perpetrated by members of this Target Group," he said demanding the resignation of Khader, the local MLA, owning moral responsibility for the total collapse of law and order in Ullal.

The BJP leaders alleged that Zubair was killed by the associates of one Ilyas, a promiment Youth Congress worker who is also a close confidante of Khader.

"The video grab obtained from the CCTV of a local mosque has shown the gruesome murder. It can also be overheard the conversation of the passers-by that associates of Ilyas are involved in the killing. Khader must go," Anwar Manippady said.

According to the BJP, the impunity with which the murder has been carried out and the felicity with which the killers have escaped was shocking and deplorable.

Urging the state government to hand over this murder to National Investigative Agency (NIA) as the drug mafia has nexus with terrorists, the BJP leaders reiterated that they would mount pressure on the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to set up an office of the NIA in Mangalore in order to keep an eagle’s eye on the sinister and nefarious activities of the anti-national elements in the entire coastal region.

    Can Shobakka take responsibility for Kavya's mysterious death? Can any BJP leader take responsibility for Gouri Lankesh murder and give resignation? We are proud of Khader as the minister.

    After BJP's personal attack on Mr.Ramanath Rai's, now the BJP has focused its target on UT Khader.
    In personal they cherry picked those candidates from Congress personality in order to create negative publicity prior to the assembly elections were percentage of margin may sway the votes in favor of BJP.

    Why the BJP did not ask for his MP resignation who went to receive NAMO Naresh in RTI activist Vinayak Baliga and attend in purification ceremony?
    Where was the BJP when his sitting MLA was found watching porn in the middle of the assembly, when Modi warned lawmakers against "politicising rape", saying they were "playing with the dignity of women" in his first speech to parliament?
    Why didn't BJP asked his Udupi MLA who was found it explicit video, when his own wife murder is yet to be solved?
    How can BJP allot tickets who are found in criminal offences like rape and murder? Is party is derth of clean candidates?

    It is quite evident that BJP is very scared of U. T. Khader for his smartly handling of his portfolio as state health minister and delivering as he promises. Khader has nothing to do with this murder nor he is the home minister. BJP, pick and choose and attack who is a threat to you.

    If Kadhar handled health ministry so well, then why did Siddhu replace him in Health ministry? He is now food and civic supplies minister, these murders have been happening in Khadars constituency so it is very clear that these Gangs enjoy political patronage

    Do you have any valid proof against Khader?????. If you have proof go ahead and file a case against Khader. He will at once resign on seeing the court notice. Hai Dum. You are just howling like panick stricken chicken. You only have suspicion and no substantial proof.

    Swamy, suspicion is obvious when so many gangs roam freely in his constituency murdering without being punished or brought to book, what does it say about that MLA? Hence people are speaking about these things but no one dares to go against the MLA because he will use the same gang to hack his opponents to death.

    This is some new cooked up allegation from you which doesn't have any basis and deviation from the main subject. Gossips, rumours, speculations and allegations doesn't amount to any minister's resignation. Unlimited Faking.
