The Jinnah tower located in Mahatma Gandhi Road in Andhra Pradesh’s Guntur got a coat of tricolour on Tuesday, February 1. The effort was organised by YSRCP MLA Mohammad Mustafa.

This comes a week after police detained Hindu Vahini activists for wanting to hoist the national flag atop Jinnah Tower on Republic Day. Jinnah tower, located on Mahatma Gandhi road, is a prominent and iconic structure in Guntur city.

The police action drew flack from the BJP, and others condemned the detention of Hindu Vahini activists.

The Guntur mayor explained that, at the request of various groups, it was decided to decorate the tower with the tricolour and to construct a pole nearby to hoist the national flag.

He alleged that BJP leaders are trying to spoil the peaceful environment of Guntur where people of all the communities and religions live peacefully.

“BJP state unit chief Somu Veerraju is trying to make an issue out of this and disturb the peace in the region,” he alleged.

Guntur East MLA Mohammad Mustafa said that the National flag will be hoisted near the tower in the presence of leaders of all political parties.

Earlier, the Andhra Pradesh BJP had demanded the YS Jagan-led YSRCP government to rename the Jinnah tower in Guntur.

BJP national secretary Y Surya Kumar, Telangana BJP MLA Raja Singh and Andhra Pradesh BJP state unit chief Somu Veeraraju had demanded renaming the Jinnah tower with APJ Abdul Kalam.

BJP leader Vishnuvardhan Reddy even threatened the Andhra government to rename the Jinnah tower or else party activists will demolish the tower and allot a new name to the centre.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
