Gurugram University professor booked for sexually harassing woman colleague

[ad_1]
Gurugram: A professor at a Gurugram university has been booked for alleged sexual harassment following a complaint by a woman colleague, police said on Monday.
The complainant, an assistant professor, has told the police that Dhirender Kaushik, Dean of the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Gurugram University, has been continuously sexually harassing her for the past four months.
Following the complaint, an FIR was registered against Kaushik under sections 354A (sexual harassment), 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code at women police station, Sector 51 on Saturday, police said.

The woman professor has alleged that on April 21 the accused came to her class and started shouting at her.
She alleged that Kaushik pressured her to succumb to his sexual desires and also issued a memo to her for switching class timings.
The complainant also alleged that he tried to physically abuse her when she got late to class once.
When contacted, Kaushik termed the allegations as “baseless”.
He said due to the complainant’s negligence at work, he issued her two show-cause memos.

That is why she was provoked by somebody and she complained, he added.
The complainant said that on April 28 the accused called her to the clerk’s room without any reason and started shouting at her.
“At that time two clerks went out of the room. After that I was alone along with Dr Dhirender in the room. He took advantage of the situation and started molesting me. I was scared and started crying but he blocked the door of the room and did not allow me to go outside. He also threatened me that he would get me terminated,” according to her complaint.
Police said the complainant recorded her statement in court under section 164 in the Code Of Criminal Procedure.
In 2018, Kaushik was also booked by police for sexual harassment when he was an assistant professor at Kurukshetra University, but the complainant later withdrew the allegations.
Subhash Boken, spokesperson of Gurugram Police, said a probe is underway.
Notice will be served to the accused to join the investigation, police said.

Telangana youth bludgeoned to death for harassing woman

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: A youth was bludgeoned to death with boulders by family members of a woman he was harassing, in Telangana’s Mancherial district on Tuesday.
Mahesh (24) was killed in broad daylight by three persons at Indaram village in Jaipur mandal of the district.
Mahesh was allegedly harassing a woman of the same village by uploading her private videos on social media.

The deceased was also responsible for the suicide of the woman’s husband.
According to villagers, Mahesh and the woman had an affair in the past. About six months ago, her family married her to another man.
To apparently take revenge, Mahesh uploaded some videos and pictures of intimate moments with the woman. Upset over this, the woman’s husband committed suicide.
After her husband’s death, the woman returned to her parents’ house. However, Mahesh again started harassing her by sharing the videos with others.
Unable to bear this any further, the woman’s family members killed him.

Police rushed to the village and launched a hunt for the assailants, who were absconding.

Indian-origin man jailed in UK for harassing parents for money

[ad_1]
London: A 49-year-old Indian-origin man from the West Midlands region of England, who had earlier been handed restraining orders, has now been sentenced to two years imprisonment for harassing his parents for money to fund his drug addiction.
Daevan Patel was found to have emotionally blackmailed his parents for money and flouted restraining orders preventing him from contacting them in order to get cash.
According to a court report from Wolverhampton Crown Court in Birmingham Live’, Judge John Butterfield said Patel had made his parents’ lives a “misery” by “bleeding them for money” as he sentenced him to a two-year prison term and also handed another five-year restraining order.
“You have contempt for others and for the orders of the courts,” the judge told him this week.
The court heard that Patel “relentlessly” sought money and sometimes called his parents 10 times a day, showing up at their home if they did not answer.
He was handed restraining orders to protect the parents, with the latest restraining order imposed for five years in August 2019 which allowed contact only by telephone. But Patel was jailed for breaching that.
The court report reveals that the accused, also a convicted thief, would shout at his parents to comply with his demands and they decided to inform the police after they “ran out of money to give him” and were concerned about what he might do.
Patel’s defence lawyer said his life had been ruined by drugs and told the court he intends to stay clean of drugs in the future.

He is currently serving a sentence at HMP Cardiff in Wales, where he reportedly intends to stay and not return to the West Midlands area where there is a danger of him mixing with a drugs crowd.

Man held for blackmailing, sexually harassing girls on Instagram

[ad_1]
New Delhi: A 22-year-old man was arrested from Punjab for allegedly sexually harassing minor girls on Instagram, police said on Sunday.
The accused threatened the minors that he will share their morphed nude photos on social media if his demands of “sexual favours” are not met, they said.
He has been identified as Jatin, police said, adding he was nabbed from his native place Kapurthala in Punjab. Police said the accused was working as a waiter in the UAE for the past three years.
The matter came to light in February after a minor girl complained that she was being blackmailed by an unidentified Instagram user who had nine different Instagram IDs, they said.
The accused created morphed nude photographs of the victim and sent them to her on her Instagram account, police said.
According to the complainant, the man started demanding her nudes by threatening her that he will share these morphed nude pictures in her school group. She became scared and sent her nudes to him with the promise that he will put an end to his nonsense. But after getting her photographs, the accused started demanding sex from her and asked her to meet him in a hotel in Paharganj. The girl refused and narrated the incident to her parents and teachers, police said.
Thereafter, the victim’s father approached Cyber West police station and a case was registered, they said.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Ghanshyam Bansal said during the course of the investigation, a police team established communication with Meta Platforms Inc and obtained the details of the suspect’s Instagram IDs used by him for blackmailing the minor girls.

After obtaining the details from Instagram, it was learned that the accused has registered all the Instagram ID’s by using a UAE mobile number. Thereafter, with the help of technical surveillance, his identity was revealed as Jatin and he was arrested from Kapurthala, Punjab, the police officer said.
“During interrogation, the accused confessed to his crime and disclosed that he was working as a waiter in the UAE for the last three years. While in the UAE, he indulged in blackmailing minor girls based in India with a promise to meet them when he will return to India,” Bansal said.
“He (accused) belongs to a middle-class family and had dreams to live a lavish life but due to the shortage of money, he could not get his dreams fulfilled. So, he started targeting minor girls for fulfilling his ill desires,” he said.
Three mobile phones containing data of blackmailing and extortion were seized from him, police said.

People seen in the video have been identified. Three persons, including one juvenile, have been apprehended and questioned. They have confessed their involvement in the incident as seen in the video. They all are residents of a nearby area of Paharganj, Deputy Commissioner of Police (central) Sanjay Kumar Sain said.
The girl tweeted from her Twitter handle that she has reached Bangladesh and was fit mentally and physically.

Police said action has been initiated against the accused under the Delhi Police Act. However, further legal action will be decided on merits and in accordance with the complaint by the girl, if any, they added.
Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) Chairperson Swati Maliwal had said she was issuing a notice to Delhi Police to examine the video and arrest the perpetrators.
“Very disturbing videos getting viral on social media showing sexual harassment with foreign nationals on Holi! I am issuing notice to Delhi Police to examine these videos and arrest the perpetrators! Completely shameful behaviour!” Maliwal tweeted on Friday.
The National Commission for Women too took the notice of the video and asked Delhi Police to register an FIR in the matter.
