    Telangana: Woman kills female friend for rejecting marriage proposal

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: A woman in the Mancherial district was arrested by the police after she killed her friend and roommate when she refused to marry her.

    P Malleshwari was arrested on Tuesday on charges of murdering her friend Salluri Anjali, 21, in the Ramakrishnapur forest area of the district on March 16.

    According to the police, Anjali was found dead with her throat slit and wounds on her stomach in the forest.

    However, Malleshwari during interrogation, confessed to her crime as she nursed a grudge against Anjali for turning down her proposal to marry her and meeting men against her will.

    She said she took Anjali to the forests under the pretext of discussing their friendship and stabbed her and slit her throat following an argument.

    The accused even tried to mislead the police by calling their friend Srinivas and claiming that she and Anjali attempted to kill themselves using a knife.

    Srinivas immediately shifted Anjali to a hospital where doctors declared her brought dead.

    Following a complaint from Anjali’s mother, a case was booked against Malleshwari, who sustained minor injuries in the scuffle.

    She was taken into custody after she was relieved from the hospital.

  • HC quashes special court’s ‘cryptic’ order rejecting Navlakha’s bail plea

    HC quashes special court’s ‘cryptic’ order rejecting Navlakha’s bail plea

    Mumbai: The Bombay High Court on Thursday quashed a “cryptic” order of a special court rejecting bail to activist Gautam Navlakha, an accused in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case, and directed the special judge to rehear his bail plea.

    A division bench of Justices A S Gadkari and P D Naik noted that the special court’s order did not contain an analysis of the evidence relied upon by the prosecution, as it directed the special judge to conclude the fresh hearing within 4 weeks.

    The 70-year-old social activist had moved HC challenging the September 5, 2022 order under the National Investigation Agency (NIA) Act refusing him bail on merits.

    The high court briefly heard the arguments put forth by Navlakha’s counsel Yug Chaudhary this week but opined that the reasoning in the order of the special court was “cryptic” and said it didn’t get the benefit of a reasoned order.

    “No reason of whatever nature is given. Trial court has not given reasoning as required under section 43D(5) of Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) while rejecting bail,” the bench said on Thursday.

    The HC said the bail plea requires a fresh hearing by the special court and sent it back to the latter.

    “The special judge is requested to conclude within 4 weeks without being influenced from September 5 order and this order of today. It is made clear that this court has not made any opinion on merits,” HC said.

    Navlakha was arrested in August 2018 but was initially placed under house arrest.

    He was later moved to the Taloja Central Prison near Mumbai in April 2020 after a Supreme Court order.

    However, on November 10 last year, the Supreme Court allowed his plea to be shifted back to house arrest for a month. This was extended by another month on December 13.

    He is presently residing in Navi Mumbai in Maharashtra’s Thane district.

    The NIA opposed Navlakha’s bail plea by claiming that he had been introduced to a Pakistan Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) General for his “recruitment”. This shows his “nexus” with the spy organisation, said the federal agency.

    The case relates to alleged inflammatory speeches made at the Elgar Parishad conclave held in Pune on December 31, 2017 which the police claim triggered violence the next day near the Koregaon-Bhima war memorial on the outskirts of the western Maharashtra city.

  • Biden says he will talk with Zelenskyy after rejecting Kyiv request for jets

    President Biden answered a question Tuesday about Ukrainian requests for additional U.S. weapons by saying he is “going to talk” to his counterpart in Kyiv, a pledge that came one day after his flat “no” when he was asked about America sending fighter jets to Ukraine.

    En route to New York for an event highlighting domestic infrastructure legislation he signed in late 2021, Biden was asked by reporters if he had spoken to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy recently and what he would tell him about requests for further military aide in Ukraine’s war effort against Russia. Biden said only that he would talk to Zelenskyy and did not elaborate further.

    Tuesday’s comments followed Biden’s initial rejection a day earlier of talk that the U.S. might supply Ukraine with F-16 fighter jets. POLITICO reported Monday that there have not yet been any serious, high-level discussion about F-16s for Kyiv.
