DCP spits and assaults accused in custody

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...

Sameer Joshi stages ‘tearful drama’ to avoid interrogation

Sameer Joshi and Pallavi Joshi 

  • Crime branch sleuth still clueless about money gulped by fraudster director of Shree Surya Company 
  • Last minutes property deals under scanner 


By Dheeraj Fartode
Sameer Joshi, who had collected vast sums by promising high returns to investors, has adopted a new strategy of delaying investigations and frustrate any attempt to dig out any information, by staging drama of repentance and grief before crime branch sleuths.
According to sources, from Thursday afternoon, when his wife Pallavi also surrendered before the court, Sameer is in tears and has refused to take food. Infact he had requested for home cooked food and an application was also filed in the court on Monday, but before it could be decided his better-half and director of Shree Surya Pallavi Joshi also surrendered and was sent to central prison for 15 days.

Police Inspector and Investigation Officer of the case Vishnu Bhoye told ‘The Hitavada’ that cops will demand Police Custody of Pallavi Joshi on November 6 for further interrogation. However, very little headway has been made in tracing the money and cops are in search of money trail and some of trusted employees and senior managers of Shree Surya, who have vanished into thin air after arrest of their boss with all minute details of investment. Cops are still not ready to believe that entire money was spent on opulence, lavish parties and posh vehicles since the cash component deposited by thousands of persons has not been accounted for and so far Joshi had not divulged anything about this sum and its possible destination including one of his close friend based on Nairobi.

Sameer, who is currently in police custody, was taken to Anjangaon Surji for investigation on Wednesday. Shreesurya has an oil company at Anjangaon Surji. Estimated value of the oil company is Rs 2 crore, Registrar informed the EOW officers. EOW is also probing the links of the scam that is spread as far as Gujarat and other neighbouring states. Sources informed that Joshi couple had friendly relations with many prominent political leaders and many of these leaders are learnt to have parked their money.

The officials added they had identified more than 100 agents who used to work for Joshi for spreading his schemes. The agents hail from Amravati, Nagpur, Yavatmal and Wardha district. The agents were lured by the fraudster by promising them incredible incentives on number of investors they registered for group's various schemes. EOW can interrogated the agents also.

The Crime branch has also received complaints about use of muscle power by some politically influential persons who apparently used high-handed tactics to recover their money parked with Joshi. In one particular case, a part of shopping mall owned by Joshi was forcibly transferred by a political leader in the name of one of his lesser known associate. One of the hard-core criminal who was recently sentenced for life, had threatened Sameer Joshi with dire consequences and he meekly signed on dotted lines and transferred the property to this leader. Interestingly, adopting modus operandi of other fraudsters like Jayant Jhambre, Joshi had also transferred same piece of property to many people who are now forced to fight a bitter legal fight among themselves.

  1. isn't it amazing how the whole case is wrapped up around these two accused. EOW is least concerned about conducting an unbiased investigation. It is much easy for them to accuse the two directors of the company. Why bother about investigating deeper? What is happening to "Maharaj" of Anjangao? the agents? who gave investors money to shreesurya from one hand and took away from the other. EOW is concerned about keeping the "others" safe, and devaluing the assets. Investors should forget about getting their money back. ...the shameful and archaic legal system of India will do everything to destroy innocent peoples/investors lives.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

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

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...
