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...

Court extends custody of nine ‘Dabba’ traders

By

  • Main accused are still at large

By Dheeraj Fartode

Sessions Judge P V Ganediwala on Monday extended the police custody remand of nine Dabba traders by three-days to help prosecution reach to bottom of the case. 
The cops today produced accused -- Ramesh Chotelal Patre (33), a  resident of 101, Vaishali Nagar; Govind Bhanwarlal Sarda (42), a resident of Canal Road, Ramdaspeth; Kushal Kishor Laddhad (37), a resident of Ramdaspeth; Pritesh Sureshkumar Lakhotia (37), a resident of 201, Shankar Nagar; Ashwin Madhukar Borikar (30), a resident of Durgawati Nagar; Vikas Laxminarayan Kubde (28), a  resident of Panchpaoli, Nagpur; Swapnil Vijayrao Parate (24), a resident of Shivaji Nagar;  Vijay Chandulal Goklani (34), a resident of Quetta Colony in the court during afternoon hours. 
Defence lawyers took strong objections to prosecution argument and claimed JMFC court has no jurisdiction to entertain any proceeding under Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act 1956. The court heard the plea and then forwarded the remand papers to session court immediately. 
During arguments, the prosecution demanded five days police custody to decode the transactions available in the seized diaries and computers and money involved in the Dabba trading. However, defence lawyers objected to prosecution saying they have not showed any progress and the grounds for extension of remand are same as mentioned in first application. Therefore, police do not have requirement of custodial interrogation of the accused and all the relevant material is already is with the cops.
After hearing pleas from both sides, the court extended police custody of the accused by three days. 

EoW’s team back with hard disks, servers from Mumbai

The EoW’s special team which raided L7 Group’s Mumbai office returned to city with many hard disks and servers. The hard disks would be showed to cyber forensic experts for further investigation. Decoding of these servers and hard disks which are believed to be encrypted by king-pin of the Dabba trade, will be another challenge before EoW sleuths and cyber forensic experts. According to cyber forensic experts, some programmes and softwares have in-built programme to destroy themselves in case they are opened by any other person. However, Maharashtra police has some of the best cyber forensic experts who have cracked even more difficult cases and retrieved the deleted data from a burnt computer and has experience in decoding complicated data from the servers and proxy-servers of the Dabba operators.

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...
