    [ad_1]

    Amethi: A local BJP leader has been arrested here on Tuesday for allegedly selling a piece of land to police for the construction of the Police Lines for Rs 2 crore with the help of forged documents, while he had already taken a loan of Rs 78 lakh against it.

    Superintendent of Police (SP) Elamaran G. said that BJP leader Om Prakash alias Prakash Mishra had committed forgery and a case had been registered against him.

    The SP also said the accused had taken a loan from the Bank of India by mortgaging his land. However, through forged documents, he sold the land for the construction of Police Lines. The land is located in Chauhanpur village under Sadar tehsil in Amethi’s Gauriganj.

    On July 27, 2017, Mishra had executed a sale deed of 0.253 square metre land. Before selling the land, he had taken a loan of Rs 78 lakh from the bank by mortgaging the land.

    After executing the sale deed, the BJP leader received a payment of Rs 1.97 crore from the Amethi police.

    During the registry, Prakash did not give any information on whether there was any loan or outstanding dues against it.

    In January this year, the recovery officer at the Debts Recovery Tribunal, Allahabad (Prayagraj) had sent a recovery notice, following which the matter came to light.

    Based on the complaint lodged by the Reserve Inspector at Police Lines, Amethi, a case has been registered against Mishra.

    The case has been registered under sections 409 (criminal breach of trust), 419 (cheating by personation), 420 (cheating), 467 (forgery of valuable security, will, etc.), 468 (forgery for purpose of cheating) and 471 (using as genuine a forged document or electronic record) of the Indian Penal Code.

    Amethi district’s BJP chief Durgesh Tripathi said that Mishra is a party worker and a case has been registered against him.

    He said the law will take its own course, and if found guilty, action will be initiated against Mishra.

  • Hyderabad: Cops arrest two for selling land using fake documents

    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 Police files chargesheet against Flipkart for selling acid

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Delhi Police has filed a chargesheet against e-commerce firm Flipkart and its delivery firm Instakart under the Poison Act for selling acid on its website, which was used by three individuals to throw at a 17-year-old girl in December 2022.

    The chargesheet has also been filed against three accused who used the acid to attack the girl who was on her way to school. The incident took place in Dwarka’s Mohan Garden area on December 14, 2022.

    Speaking with IANS, M. Harsha Vardhan, DCP (Dwarka) said that the chargesheet was filed against Sachin Arora, Harshit Aggarwal a.k.a. Honey and Virender Singh a.k.a. Sonu and two private firms under section 326-A, and 34 120-B of the IPC read with section 4 of Poison Act.

    The chargesheet was filed before a Dwarka court judge.

    All the three accused are currently in judicial custody.

    The Delhi Police is banking on electronic and forensic evidence to collect more information on the matter.

    In the forensic report, the acid was found to be ‘Nitric Acid’.

    The Delhi Police has mentioned in the chargesheet that the accused also told them that they wanted to buy Nitric Acid, which proves the prosecution (police) story.

    After the incident, Delhi Police had sent notice to Flipkart and Instakart, and had asked them regarding compliance of regulations related to the sale of acid.

    Sources said that in their reply, they had accepted that it was sold without having proper license.

    The accused hurled acid at the victim. She had suffered severe burn injuries in the incident.

    Later, all the three accused were held.

  • ED searches at 10 places in Kashmir in case linked to selling MBBS seats in Pakistan

    ED searches at 10 places in Kashmir in case linked to selling MBBS seats in Pakistan

    [ad_1]

    Srinagar: The Enforcement Directorate has carried out searches at 10 places across four districts in the Kashmir valley as part of its ongoing probe against conspirators involved in arranging admissions for money in various courses, including MBBS in Pakistan, to fund terror activities, an official said.

    The ED’s Srinagar Zonal office carried out the search recently under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) at 10 locations in Srinagar, Budgam, Kupwara and Anantnag districts, the official said.

    He said the raids were conducted in respect of an investigation relating to the involvement of conspirators who were hand-in-glove with some educational consultancies and manipulating or arranging admission of J-K students in various professional courses, including MBBS in Pakistan-based colleges, institutions and universities.

    In May last year, a special NIA court had framed charges against eight persons, including arrested Hurriyat leader Mohammad Akbar Bhat alias “Zaffar Bhat” for selling Pakistani MBBS seats in Jammu and Kashmir to fund terror activities.

    The case was registered against the “unscrupulous persons” by the State Investigation Agency (SIA) on July 27, 2020.

    The official said the ED initiated probe on the basis of the FIR registered under various sections of UA(P) Act and the Indian Penal Code, and chargesheet filed by counter-intelligence Kashmir, Srinagar, against various accused, including Bhat, Fatima Shah, Altaf Ahmad Bhat, Qazi Yasir, Mohd Abdullah Shah, Sabzar Ahmad Sheikh, Manzoor Ahmad Shah, Mohd Iqbal Mir and Syed Khalid Geelani alias Khalid Andrabi, for their involvement in accumulating funds for terror activities on the pretext of admission of J-K students in various professional courses in Pakistan-based institutions.

    “PMLA investigation has also revealed that many times, these admissions are actually part of the Technical Assistance Programme (TAP) and are offered to foreign students either free or at nominal charges on an annual basis.

    “However, hefty charges were being levied on the students and the extra money so earned, was ploughed into supporting terrorism in myriad ways on the instructions of Pakistan-based handlers as well as those sitting in Jammu and Kashmir,” the official said.

    As of now, the official said proceeds of crime to the tune of about Rs 1 crore have been determined and six people have been identified who had been admitted to various institutions in Pakistan by such elements.

    “During the course of search operations, documents related to immovable properties and highly incriminating material, including digital devices related to the scam, have been recovered and seized,” the official said, adding further investigation is in progress.

  • APTECH Row: ‘Days gone when jobs were selling in shops’: LG

    [ad_1]

    ‘People used to get jobs based on their approach, but that no longer is the case’

    Suhail Khan

    Srinagar, Mar 13 (GNS): Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha while reacting to the agitation by JKSSRB aspirants against APTECH Company said the protests going around regarding the matter are just an attempt to stall the recruitment process, but those behind the plot are bound to fail.

    The LG Sinha, as per GNS, said that in the past three years, around thirty thousand youth from Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory have been provided jobs and the government is committed to providing jobs to twelve thousand youth in the 2023 year.

    The Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Manoj Sinha, said what people can expect from those who give space to terrorism, who provide jobs to militant families and who have appointed lakhs of people for whom common masses in the UT are suffering.

    He said gone are the days when jobs were sold in shops and only approach-based people were given positions. “Those days are over now, people now need to come forward if they know of anyone involved in any wrongdoing, and strict action will be taken”, he said adding nobody will be spared who is involved in any wrongdoing.

    He said those people who spoil the dreams of young aspirants in broad daylight and have entirely damaged the whole ecosystem are those who were appointed but had never been in offices, and it is obvious those are hurting and it should be.

    “Don’t come to their talks, you don’t need to hold candle-lights”, LG said.

    “All those complaints received earlier have been strictly dealt with, and the matters later handed over to India’s best investigation agency, the CBI”, he said.

    Pertinently, scores of Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB) job aspirants are relentlessly protesting against the purported grant of contract to APTECH Ltd. for conduct of various exams. (GNS)

  • Telangana govt to raise 13000 crores by selling lands

    Telangana govt to raise 13000 crores by selling lands

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad, February 18 (Siasat News): In order to manage funds for various welfare schemes and projects in the state, the government has decided to raise Rs 13,000 crore by selling government land and regularising the encroachments. Unused government land in greater Hyderabad limits is being sold by the government through auction.

    The Government organized auction for the sale of Rajiv Swagruha flats in Pocharam and Bandlaguda area. In the financial year 2022-23, the sale of land fetched Rs 6,900 crore as against the target of Rs 10,000 crore.

    Chief Secretary Shanta Kumari has focused on increasing non-tax revenue through the sale of land. The cabinet sub-committee had recently held a meeting with District Collectors and officials of revenue, finance, stamp and registration and other departments to increase non-tax revenue. Apart from GST collection, income can be increased through property registration and other means. Till January this year, the government has received around Rs 92,000 crore.

    According to official sources, the District Collectors have identified unused government lands so that they can be sold. The government is taking steps to regulate encroachments on government land from market value under G-59. Around 14,000 applications in this regard are pending with the government. Telangana goes to polls later this year, so would need funds to spend on RythuBandhu, RythuBeema and other schemes.

  • Amazon, Flipkart among 20 e-tailors given notices for selling drugs without licence

    Amazon, Flipkart among 20 e-tailors given notices for selling drugs without licence

    [ad_1]

    Delhi: Amazon and Flipkart Health plus are among the 20 online sellers that have been issued show-cause notices by the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) over the online sale of drugs in violation of norms.

    The show-cause notice dated February 8 by DCGI V G Somani cited a Delhi High Court order dated December 12, 2018, which prohibits online sales of medicines without a licence.

    The notice stated that the DCGI had forwarded the order to all state and Union Territories in May and November 2019 and again on February 3 for necessary action and compliance.

    “In spite of the same, you are found to be engaged in such activities without a licence,” the notice to the online medicine sellers said.

    “…You are hereby asked to show cause within 2 days from the date of issue of this notice, why action shall not be taken against you for sale, or stock, or exhibit or offer for sale or distribution of drugs in contravention of the provisions of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act 1940 and rules made thereunder,” the notice said.

    The notice states that the sale or stock or exhibit or offer for sale or distribution of any drug requires a licence from the concerned state licensing authority and conditions of a licence are required to be complied with by the licence holders.

    The DCGI has said that in case of no reply, it will be presumed that the company has nothing to say in the matter and necessary action will be initiated against them without any further notice.

    When contacted, Flipkart Health Plus said that it is a digital healthcare marketplace platform that enables easy and convenient access to genuine and affordable medicines and healthcare products, from independent sellers, for millions of customers across the country.

    “We have received the notice from CDSCO (Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation) and are responding to it appropriately. As an organisation, we remain committed to complying with the laws of the land and towards continuous improvements of our processes/checks and controls on our marketplace platform to build trust and enhance customer experience,” Flipkart Health plus said.

    Email queries seeking comments over the development sent to Amazon India and others did not elicit any reply.

    Traders body Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) National President BC Bhartia and Secretary General Praveen Khandelwal in a joint statement demanded the government to strictly enforce the law and the judgment of the Delhi high court and ensure that no e-commerce company is selling medicine violating the Drug and Cosmetic Act.

    “Government must take strict action against the e-commerce, e-pharma intermediaries, marketplace platforms including Amazon and Flipkart who are selling the medicine without obtaining the requisite license-added the trade leaders,” the statement said.

    CAIT added that several online medicine sellers are foreign-controlled and therefore, are ineligible to seek these retail licences as this would be a violation of the extant Foreign Direct Investment policy in the multi-brand retail sector or inventory-based e-commerce.
