DCP spits and assaults accused in custody

By
By Dheeraj Fartode Shocking allegations of misconduct have emerged against a police officer in Nagpur City Police. The officer is accused of abusive and degrading behaviour, particularly targeting accused in Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Sources claim that the senior officer arrives at the police station and calls the accused into a separate room, where the officer not only hurls abuse at the accused but also spits at their face. Later, the officer allegedly kicks the accused in the private parts. In some incidents, when a couple approached a police station in Nagpur to file a complaint following a domestic dispute, the police sent a proposal for preventive action to the officer. However, instead of handling the matter professionally, the officer allegedly made the man sit down, then kicked him in the private parts and leave him in pain and humiliation. The behaviour of the high ranked official have raised questions about the professionalism of law enforcemen...

MP trader's body exhumed from Vasantrao Naik Slum

By

A police posse stands guard at the spot 
where a youth, Rohit Jain, was buried 
by the goons at the slum.

Sitabuldi police on Wednesday exhumed body of a businessman, Rohit Jain, who was allegedly murdered and then buried at Vasantrao Naik Slum. After last night violence that resulted in lynching of a goon by angry slum dwellers, the skeletons in cupboard of Sitabuldi police started tumbling down. As decomposed body of Jain, who was tortured to death, by Akram Sheikh and his accomplices, the rot in policing at Nagpur city also become stark clear. Not that police were not told about activities of Akram Sheikh but the residents allege their complaints were ignored. Instead police used to tip off Akram about complaints received against him.
After last night violence the police were on defensive. Acting on information of slum dwellers alleged the police swung into action. From morning onwards the formalities were completed and Tehsildar informed as per procedure. Similarly the police also took into custody, Akram who last night was lucky to escape mob fury, and his two accomplices. But his brother, Iqbal Sheikh (30) was caught and was beated to death by the angry locals on the footpath near Patrakar Sahniwas on Amravati Road.
Body Exhumed: The process to exhume the body started around 2.30 pm. The entire procedure was videographed. The pit in which Jain was buried was found adjoining the wall of hockey ground on Amravati Road. The pit was around five feet deep and around six feet long and as labourers began removing top soil foul smell spread in the area. The body was naked.
The police said as per their investigations, Jain owed around Rs. 3 lakh to Akram. The businessman was from Seoni in neighbouring Madhya Pradesh. Jain would frequent electronics market at Sitabuldi and would frequent the gambling den at Vasantrao Naik slums. As the trader was not paying-up due money, Akram and his brothers, brought in Jain sometime on night of September 22.

Joint CP Sanjay Saxena talking with slum dwellers 

The residents there told newspersons that they heard loud shouts on night of September 22, which police now suspect was owing to torture being inflicted by Akram and his associates. Akram had managed to spread his activities in large part of the slum area, he had forcibly taken over nine rooms at Vasantrao Nagar slums. The police as told by dwellers found a nylon rope with which Jain was allegedly tied and thrashed by the goons for recovery of money.
The highly decomposed body was exhumed around 4.30 pm. The body of Jain was sent for post mortem to Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH).
Meanwhile, Sitabuldi police have so far made three arrests, including that of Sk Akram, Sk. Iqbal Sk. Rehamn and Pappu Gupta. They were charged with abudction and murder of Rohit Jain.
After death of Jain in the beating Akram forced three youth in locality to dug the pit in which the body was dumped. As residents began talking in whispers about the burial, Akram decided to remove the body. And for that purpose last night he and his brother came to the spot. However as slum dwellers got information they too assembled at spot and from there the matter took for worse.
As Akram was armed with two swords, the slum dwellers were hesitant to take on his might. But the activities of the goons was increasing and non co-operation of Sitabuldi police forced residents to take law into their own hand.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...

Longest cable-stayed bridge to boost tourism at Ambhora

By
CONSTRUCTION work of 700-metre-long cable-stayed bridge, longest in the country, with a viewing gallery at the top at Ambhora in Kuhi tehsil is near completion. The bridge would be open for traffic in December this year providing a major boost to tourism at Shree Chaitanyeshwar Mahadev temple at Ambhora. It is set to open doors of development for the backward area of Kuhi and Umred tehsil. Ambhora, located 75 km from Nagpur city, is a famous religious and tourist place in Vidarbha. It is situated at the confluence of five rivers -- Wainganga, Kanhan, Aam, Kolari and Murza. Just around a decade ago the river bank housing Ambhora used to see a flux of tourists from all over the State. However, the banks were submerged in water after the construction of Gosikhurd dam which led to rise in water levels. Since then, tourist flow at Ambhora has also declined. However, now with the construction of the new bridge tourists will get a chance see the scenic backwaters across the river bed which is...
