Perla Devaloka couple murder case: Black magician gets life
Kasargod, Nov 21, 2013: The
second Additional District and Sessions Court has sentenced Imam Hussain,
a black magician from Sagar, to life imprisonment in the 1993 Perla
Devaloka couple murder case. The quantum of punishment was pronounced by the
court on November 21, Thursday.
The
Court had earlier on November 18, Tuesday convicted Hussain of
murdering Srikrishna Bhat and his wife Srimathi. The court
while announcing the quantum of punishment has also directed the convict to pay
a penalty of Rs 1.5 lakh to the three sons of the couple.
Though the convict pleaded for mercy stating that he had six children, five of them girls staying in a rented house, the court turned down the same.
The court pronounced the judgement one and a half years after the trials in the case commenced after Imam was arrested in Bangalore on April 20, 2012, almost 19 years after the crime.
It was on October 9, 1993 that Imam killed Srikrishna Bhat and his wife after promising to unearth a hidden treasure in their land. Imam was then practicing at a lodge in Mangalore. The couple’s children Muralikrishna(13), Niranjan(11) and Sudarshan(6) who were sleeping in another room that night came to know that their parents were killed only the next morning. If their mother was found dead in the room, father was later found in a ditch in their plantation. Items used for black magic were found at the spot. A hen brought for sacrifice was also at the spot. The police had taken possession of it, but it died after a few years. It was a visiting card found in the couple’s house that helped the police identify the culprit.
The Badiadka police were initially investigating the case which was handed over to the Crime Branch in 2008.

Twin jatha by CPI(M) seeking CBI probe into Dharmasthala cases kick starts from Sullia, Belthangady
Sullia,
Nov 22, 2013 : The Jatha by foot organised by the
Communist Party of India (Marxist) from Sullia to Mangalore, demanding a
CBI probe into all the suspicious death cases in Dharmasthala and Ujire
villages along with the Sowjanya case, was flagged off at Sullia on November
21, Thursday.
Sri Siddabasavaza
Kabirananda Mahaswami of Gulbarga Singarahalli Marulashankera Devara Gurupeetha
inaugurated the jatha.
CPI(M) State Secretariat Board Member KR Sriyan handed over the party flag to Jatha leader and CPI(M) District Secretariat Board Member Vasantha Achari.
Speaking on the occasion, Kabirananda Mahaswami said it is a tragedy that such a massive movement has to be organised for justice in the case of the rape and murder case of an innocent girl. He said the fact finding in this case is obstructed due to some influential forces and therefore a fight was inevitable.
Continuing, the seer said they were not pointing fingers at anyone, but are aware that evidences have been destroyed in this case. He also said the suspicious deaths in the area have come to a halt ever since the Sowjanya movement has kicked off.
He further said it is inevitable to launch a ceaseless fight until justice is done.
He also made a strong case for the implementation of the Anti-Superastition Bill. Party leaders KR Sriyan, Sunil Kumar Bajal also spoke. Several leaders including DYFI District Secretary Dayanand Shetty, Janavadi Sanghatane’s District President Padmavathi Shetty, SFI District President Nitin, CPI(M) leaders Krishnappa Salian, Richard Crasta and others were present.
