  • Kuwaiti woman goes missing in India, found in Bangladesh: Police

    Kuwaiti woman goes missing in India, found in Bangladesh: Police

    [ad_1]

    Kolkata: A 31-year-old woman from Kuwait who had arrived in India for treatment and went missing from Kolkata last month has been spotted in neighbouring Bangladesh this week, a police officer said here on Thursday.

    After a thorough investigation, the Kolkata Police informed the Kuwaiti Embassy that the woman, along with a man, has crossed the international border to enter Bangladesh.

    “It was then the Kuwaiti Embassy sought the help of Bangladesh and the woman was found from a house in that country on Monday. The police there have handed her over to the Kuwaiti authorities,” the police officer said.

    The woman came to Kolkata with her younger brother on January 20 and put up at a five-star hotel in East Kolkata. She was getting treatment for some skin-related problems in a private hospital.

    After a tour of other tourist attractions of Kolkata, she along with her younger brother had gone to Alipore zoo on January 27 from where she went “missing”, the officer said.

    Her brother then went to Alipore police station and informed the officer “in broken English” about what had happened.

    As her mobile phone containing a Kuwaiti sim could not be tracked, the police started examining CCTV footage.

    “CCTV footage showed that she got into a yellow taxi with a man wearing a suit, a cap and a mask. So, identifying him was tough. We spotted the taxi driver and got to know that they got down near Marquis Street (in central Kolkata),” the senior police officer said.

    From there, they took another taxi and reached the Bangladesh border near Bangaon in the neighbouring North 24 Parganas district.

    “Then they could not be spotted anywhere inside the Indian territory. Based on the description and after scanning hundreds of CCTV footage, we got a photograph of the man who is probably a Bangladeshi national,” he said.

    A red alert was issued against the man. The staff of the Alipore Police Station and Anti-Rowdy Section of Kolkata Police talked to their sources and after it was clear that they have crossed the international border, they informed the Kuwaiti Embassy in New Delhi.

    The embassy has sent an appreciation letter to the Kolkata Police lauding the role of its officers in helping them rescue the woman, the officer added.

    No details on what happened to the man who apparently is her beau, nor the location in Bangladesh from where the Kuwaiti citizen was found were shared with the media.

  • Saudi Arabia reveals face of 2000-year-old Nabataean woman

    Saudi Arabia reveals face of 2000-year-old Nabataean woman

    [ad_1]

    Riyadh: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has revealed the first known reconstruction of ‘Hinat’, a Nabataean woman, displayed at the Hegra Welcome Centre at AlUla from February 6.

    A team of archaeologists and academics in forensic science and model-making working for the Royal Commission for AlUla Governorate managed to reconstruct the face of a woman from the Nabataean civilization that existed in the Arabian Peninsula centuries ago.

    The reconstructed face is based on the remains of Hinat, who was first disvovered in 2015 in a 2000-year-old tomb in Hegra.

    The inscription on her tomb emphasizes the importance of women in Nabataean Hegra society, who owned property and made their own tombs.

    20230208 192033

    The team of scientists met in London in September 2019, where they discussed the expected final shape of Hinat’s face.

    Hinat’s reconstruction was based on a one-day scholarly roundtable with experts in Hegra, Nabatean, and AlUla antiquities, discussing her appearance, status, and clothing.

    Archaeologists, anthropologists, forensic reconstruction experts and a 3D sculptor were involved in the reconstruction and after a 3D model was completed and validated in July 2020, work began on making molds to produce a silicone bust.

    The Royal Commission for Al-Ula plans to continue important historical explorations in the future.

  • Surrogacy Act hold no woman shall act as surrogate by providing her own gametes, SC told

    Surrogacy Act hold no woman shall act as surrogate by providing her own gametes, SC told

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Central government has informed the Supreme Court that surrogacy law says a surrogate mother may not be genetically related to the child born through the process.

    A bench headed by Justice Ajay Rastogi is hearing a clutch of petitions, including one challenging certain provisions of the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021 and the Assisted Reproductive Technology (Regulation) Act, 2021.

    The petition has contended these provisions directly infringe upon the right to privacy and are against the reproductive rights of women and also a contention has been raised, in one of the petitions, that both Acts fall short in fully addressing the essential goal of regulating surrogacy and other assisted reproductive techniques.

    It has been argued that the Surrogacy Act imposes a blanket ban on commercial surrogacy, which is neither desirable nor may be effective.

    The Central government said section 4(iii)(b)(III) of the Surrogacy Act prescribes that no woman shall act as a surrogate mother by providing her own gametes. The government clarified that a child to be born through surrogacy to the intending couple should be formed of gametes of the intending couple themselves: sperms from the father and oocytes from the mother.

    The government said through a notification issued in May last year, it had formed the National Assisted Reproductive Technology and Surrogacy Board under section 17 of the Surrogacy Act and section 3 of the ART Act.

    The Central government submitted before the apex court that the child to be born through surrogacy must be genetically related to the intending couple or intending woman (widow or divorcee).

    It further added that a provision of the Surrogacy Act prescribes that no woman shall act as a surrogate mother by providing her own gametes.

    Citing Section 25 of the Surrogacy Act, the government said the board has the power to advise the Centre on policy matters relating to assisted reproductive technology and surrogacy. And, also for supervising the functioning of various bodies constituted under the two statutes, including the state boards, it added.

    The government said the national board is a common body between the Surrogacy Act and the ART Act. It further added that boards have been constituted in all states and Union Territories except Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Gujarat.
