    Salman Khan threat email: Mumbai cops apprehend man from Rajasthan

    [ad_1]

    Mumbai: The Mumbai police have apprehended a man from Rajasthan in connection with an email threatening actor Salman Khan that was received at the latter’s office here recently, an official said on Sunday.

    The accused was nabbed by a team of Bandra police station and is being brought to Mumbai, an official said. The accused Dhakad Ram Bishnoi (21) is a resident of Siyagon ki Dhani in Rohicha Kalan village under the Luni police station in Jodhpur. He was on bail in a case of Arms Act, police said.

    Jodhpur’s DCP (West) Gaurav Yadav said a team from Mumbai’s Bandra police station arrived here to arrest Bishnoi on Sunday. “They asked us to assist them in detaining Bishnoi. We provided them support and handed Bishnoi over to the Mumbai Police,” said Yadav.

    The complaint about the threat e-mail was recently lodged at the Bandra police station by one Prashant Gunjalkar, who according to police, frequently visits the Bandra-based residence of Salman Khan and runs an artist management company.

    When Gunjalkar was present in Khan’s office in Galaxy Apartment recently, he noticed an email had been received from the ID “Rohit Garg”. The sender of the e-mail, written in Hindi, said: “Goldy Bhai (gangster Goldy Brar) wanted to talk to Salman Khan face-to-face to close the matter”, adding, “Agli baar, jhatka dekhne ko milega (You’ll see something shocking)”, the police had said.

    “After a detailed technical investigation into the case, police got information about the accused person’s whereabouts, following which a team was sent to Rajasthan and the man was apprehended,” the official said.

    He is being interrogated by a police team about the threat to the actor, he said.

    After the threat mail was received, the Mumbai police had registered a first information report (FIR) against gangsters Lawrence Bishnoi and Goldy Brar. The FIR was registered under sections 120-B (criminal conspiracy), 506-II (criminal intimidation) and 34 (common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), the police said.

    Yadav said Bishnoi had been arrested in September last year by the Sardarpura police for possessing illegal weapon and was out on bail.

    However, no link between him and Lawrence Bishnoi or any other local gang has come to the notice during investigation so far, he added.

    Jodhpur police officials said a case had also been registered against Bishnoi at Mansa’s Sadar police in Punjab on March 24 for sending a similar threatening mail to the father of slain Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala.

    A team of Punjab Police also reached Jodhpur to arrest Bishnoi on Sunday, he said.

    However, the Punjab Police will have to wait to claim Bishnoi’s custody until Mumbai police completes its investigation, he added.

  • Hyderabad: Cops foil protest by unemployed students at Osmania University

    Hyderabad: Cops foil protest by unemployed students at Osmania University

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: Tension prevailed on the campus of Osmania University here on Friday as police detained leaders of some students’ groups to foil the protest over the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC) exam paper leak.

    Police picked up student leaders from hostels and shifted them to Osmania University police station.

    Police had denied permission to students’ Joint Action Committee for the Vidyarthi Nirudyoga Maha Nirasana Deeksha or protest by students and unemployed.

    The organisers had planned to take out a march from Arts College on the campus to Telangana Martyrs’ Memorial Gun Park near the Assembly building in the heart of the city.

    When some protesters gathered in front of Arts College, police arrested them. Holding placards, students raised slogans of ‘Khabardar KCR’.

    A student tried to set himself afire on the campus, giving some tense moments to the police. Some police personnel swung into action to stop the student from taking extreme step.

    The Osmania University was the nerve centre of students’ protest during the Telangana movement. Self-immolation of a student during one such protest had intensified the movement.

    Students’ JAC is now looking to launch a similar movement on the problems faced by the unemployed in the state.

    Telangana Unemployed JAC chairman Bheem Rao Nayak condemned the arrests. He said their movement can’t be suppressed with arrests. He said protests would be organised from Saturday in all universities and districts.

    He criticised Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao for not responding to an issue which has shocked 30 lakh unemployed in the state.

    The organisers demanded that the TSPSC Chairman and members should be removed from their posts over the paper leak. They also demanded an inquiry by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) or by a sitting judge.

    The police also stopped leaders of the opposition Congress party from reaching Osmania University to participate in the protest by placing them under house arrest. State Congress chief A. Revanth Reddy and other leaders were placed under house arrest.

    Meanwhile, the students’ wing of Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) also staged a protest on Osmania University campus against the Congress. The workers of BRSV raised slogans of ‘Revanth Reddy go back’. The protestors tried to set afire an effigy of the Congress leader but were detained by the police.

  • Telangana YouTuber, 4 others sent to jail for assaulting cops

    Telangana YouTuber, 4 others sent to jail for assaulting cops

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: A city court on Wednesday sent YouTuber Chintapandu Naveen Kumar alias Teenmaar Mallanna and four others to judicial custody in a case registered against them for allegedly abducting and assaulting two policemen.

    The accused, who were arrested by Rachakonda police late on Tuesday night, were presented before a court in Hayathnagar, which sent them to judicial custody.

    The accused, who have been booked for kidnapping, wrongful confinement, assault and attempt to murder, were later shifted to Cherlapally jail.

    While it was earlier believed that Mallanna was arrested for alleged derogatory comments against Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao and his family members, Rachakonda police clarified that he and four others working for his YouTube channel Q News were arrested for assaulting policemen.

    According to police, two police constables were on duty near a hotel in the Peerzadiguda area on Tuesday evening to carry out vehicle checking to prevent chain snatchings.

    Three unknown persons, armed with lathis, approached the police constables and forcibly took them to the nearby Q News office. Though policemen tried to show their identity cards, the attackers snatched these, took them to Q News office and produced them before Mallanna stating that police are loitering near their office.

    “Mallanna then ordered his associates to bring them into his room, where the police officers were thrashed severely after snatching awy their cell phones. Teenmaar Mallanna started assaulting them with a stick provoking his associates by wrongfully confining in their office,” the police said.

    Later the police parties deployed in the area rushed to the spot but the accused obstructed their efforts to rescue them.

    Police arrested Q News newsreader Teenmaar Mallanna, editor Bandaru Ravinder, driver Uppala Nikhil, office boy Sirra Sudhakar, and software engineer Chintha Sandeep Kumar, and registered a case under Sections 363 (kidnapping), 342 (wrongful confinement), 395 (dacoity), 332 (voluntarily causing grievous hurt), 307 (attempt to murder) read with 34 (common intention) of the IPC and section 7 (1) of Criminal Amendment Act, 1932.

    Earlier, several police complaints were lodged against Mallanna at various police stations for his alleged derogatory comments against Chief Minister Chandrashekhar Rao, his son and IT Minister K.T. Rama Rao and daughter MLC K. Kavitha on his YouTube channel.

    Telangana Jagruthi member Naveen Goud had lodged a complaint against Mallanna, with LB Nagar police for making defamatory comments against Kavitha and Rama Rao, demanding immediate action be taken against Mallanna and his channel should be banned.

    BJP chief Bandi Sanjay had visited Mallanna’s house late on Tuesday night and condemned the arrest.

    “Democracy is under threat in Telangana. Let’s Save Democracy ! KCR is digging his own grave by stifling the voices which are questioning his tyranny. Earnest request to media organisations not to budge into the pressure of BRS govt,” tweeted Sanjay after the visit.

    Mallanna’s supporters alleged that instead of taking action against those who attacked Q News office on Sunday night, the police arrested him.

    Unidentified persons had the office and ransacked computers and furniture.

    Mallanna, who was not present in the office at the time of attack, had alleged that 25 BRS goondas attacked his office. He claimed that it was a conspiracy to murder him.

    Mallanna, who calls himself a journalist, is a vocal critic of the BRS government, Chief Minister Chandrasekhar Rao and his family members.

    Hyderabad: Cops arrest two for selling land using fake documents

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: Rachakonda police detained two habitual offenders indulging in creating counterfeit documents to sell real estate.

    The arrests were made as a part of an ongoing drive against routine offenders to ensure the safety and security of the general public.

    The accused – Dadi Dharmender Reddy and Donthi Sathi Reddy – have been detained in the Cherlapally central jail under Preventive Detention (PD) Act.

    According to the police, they operate by identifying open plots which were registered prior to 2002, collecting certified copies, and making counterfeit documents with the help of Shoukat Ali, a resident of SR Nagar.

    They sold these lands to genuine customers by duping them with fake documents and paid actors posing as the land owners, police said.

    Dharmender is involved in 18 cases registered under Keesara, Ghatkesar, Kushaiguda, Ibrahimpatnam, Hayathnagar, Sangareddy and Bibinagar police stations while Sathi was involved in four cases under Bibinagar police station.

    The police alleged that there was no change in their attitudes despite taking legal action through several cases.

    In April 2019, Dharmender and Sathi identified two plots belonging to K B Khurana and Anil Khurana, created counterfeit documents and obtained an Agreement of sale-cum General Power of Attorney (AGPA) on the name of Chakali Ramu s/o Late Mallikarjuna.

    Further, they divided the two plots into five parts and sold them to individual purchasers for an amount of Rs 65,00,000.

    When the original owners who are currently residing in Delhi visited their plots, they realised that they were sold illegally and reported the issue to Bibinagar police.

    Bibinagar police in a joint operation with the Special Operations Team (SOT) of Malkajgiri zone arrested the accused and remanded them to judicial custody. The police seized Rs 7,00,000 cash, two cars, and a few cell phones.

    Delhi cops at Rahul’s door: ‘Political vendetta, harassment’, alleges Cong

    [ad_1]

    Rahul gandhi Delhi police

    New Delhi: The Congress on Sunday condemned the Delhi Police action against Rahul Gandhi and called it the worst case of “political vendetta” and “harassment”, asserting that the Centre was setting a wrong precedent by registering such cases against political opponents.

    Addressing a joint press conference at the AICC headquarters here, party leaders Ashok Gehlot, Jairam Ramesh and Abhishek Singhvi said the move was a clear case of “vendetta, intimidation and harassment” in order to create an atmosphere against the former Congress chief.

    Gehlot asserted that the central dispensation was setting a bad example by registering cases on statements of opposition leaders made during political campaigns, adding that the BJP leaders could face similar action over remarks made in states not ruled by it.

    He said if Union ministers make similar comments in opposition-ruled states during elections, they may face the same action as done by the Delhi Police.

    Delhi police notice to Rahul Gandhi for details on ‘sexual harassment’ of women

    The Delhi Police on Sunday reached the residence of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in connection with a notice issued to him over his “women are still being sexually assaulted” remark made during the Bharat Jodo Yatra.

    The police team headed by Special Commissioner of Police (Law and Order) Sagar Preet Hooda arrived at Gandhi’s 12, Tughlaq Lane residence, officials said.

    Hitting out at the police action, Singhvi said the statements in question were made by Gandhi in Srinagar on January 30 and thus the same does not fall under the Delhi Police jurisdiction.

    He also wondered why the city police force was showing so much alacrity in making frequent visits to Gandhi’s residence after 45 days of the remarks made by the former Congress chief.

    He added that the move was to divert the attention from the Adani issue, but the Congress and other opposition parties will not backtrack.
