Deadly shooting outside the Islamic Center of San Diego has left three people dead after two teenage gunmen opened fire near the mosque complex in California. Victims included a security guard who police say may have prevented an even deadlier mass shooting inside the mosque. Authorities later found the two suspects dead from apparent self-inflicted gunshot wounds. Investigators are now examining possible anti-Islamic writings recovered from the suspects’ vehicle, while the Federal Bureau of Investigation has joined the investigation into a possible hate crime.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court has delivered a landmark verdict in the decades-old Bhojshala-Kamal Maula dispute in Dhar, declaring the disputed complex a temple dedicated to Goddess Vagdevi (Saraswati). The court dismissed the Muslim side’s claim over the site and cancelled the 2003 ASI arrangement that allowed Friday namaz at the premises. While the ASI will continue managing the monument, the right to perform religious rituals has now been granted to the Hindu side. Congress leader Arif Masood rejected the verdict, saying, “We are not accepting today’s decision of the High Court.”
