Newskarnataka-Mangalore
Mangalore :Parents of Dinesh Gowda, a youth hailing from Koyyur in Belthangady taluk who died recently in a suspected case of deliberate road accident have appealed for justice.
Speaking to reporters here on December 14, Saturday, Babi Gowda, father of Dinesh alleged that his son was murdered in a pre-planned act. He said on November 20 at around 9 am when his son Dinesh was passing through Nekkilu in his motor bike, the jeep of the accused Balakrishna Poojari which was approaching from the opposite direction, deliberately veered the vehicle to the extreme right resulting in a collision with Dinesh’s bike and his spot death.
Gowda also alleged that locals had seen one Prakash, a murder accused of Guruvayanakere and his associate Sukesh Jain along with Balakrishna at the time the accident took place.
Babi Gowda demanded stern action against Balakrishna Poojari who, he said murdered his son in a case of deliberate accident and then tried to mislead investigation by destroying evidences. He also sought stringent punishment to Shyamasunder Gowda, Siddappa Gowda and others of Dharmasthala who tried to hush up the case by forcing him to withdraw the complaint.
Mahesh Shetty Timarody, Leader of Prajaprabhutva Vedike and mother of the deceased Dinesh were also present at the press meet.
