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...

EoW raids L7 group’s Mumbai Office

By

By Dheeraj Fartode

Economic Offences Wing (EoW) of City Police and Mumbai Police conducted raid at L7 group office at Marol, Andheri (East), Mumbai. The cops seized computers, laptops, hard disks from the office related to the Dabba trading network which has caused losses to the State exchequer. 
Joint Commissioner of Police (Joint CP) Rajvardhan confirmed the information and said that the raids were conducted on specific inputs. 
The raid started on Friday when the EoW got tip-off about Ravi Agrawal’s software office in Mumbai. The Nagpur EoW contacted Mumbai Police for help and started the raid that continued for 24 hours. The cops have also engaged software professionals to collect maximum evidence from Mumbai office of L7 group. 
Sources in EoW informed ‘The Hitavada’ that the Mumbai-based office is the most important link in the Dabba trading network. Agrawal had established the office at 5b-157 Akshay Mittal Industrial Estate, Marol, Saki Naka, Andheri (E). He had installed servers there from which he was operating computers of Nagpur. 
Ravi Agrawal had used intelligent softwares to operate computers installed in Nagpur office. The computers can be started from Mumbai office only and all data saved in Mumbai based-servers can be accessed from any location. Many computers seized from Nagpur office were found to have no hard disks but they were found to have many extensions connected to the servers. 
EoW officials said that Ravi Agrawal was running the Dabba trading in his offices under the garb of a software company. When the investigators asked the Agrawal family about the reason for installing 20 computers, the family members claimed that they were software developers. However, they did not show any software engineer as their employee nor any software development programme. 
The L7 group also failed to show computer logs in the last seven days as the computers were used only for Dabba trading. The EoW has  deputed many software engineers to collect the information from hard disk and also retrieve the deleted data.

Why was L7 virtually controlling computers? 

After amassing huge wealth from fraud Dabba trading, Ravi Agrawal had modified his entire computer network, sources insist. He had connected his office computers through Virtual Network Computing (VNC) server installed at Mumbai office. The VNC protocol remotely controls another computer over a network. Agrawal had used the VNC so that no one could access his logs of Dabba trading. This type of setting of computers and softwares was not available with any other Dabba traders.
The remote server is the main electronic evidence in the case under various Sections of Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act to punish the accused. That is the reason why the EoW is working hard on it so that the accused could be prosecuted successfully. 

EoW chasing absconding Dabba traders 

After arresting 10 Dabba traders, the Economic Offences Wing (EoW) is chasing another 11 absconding Dabba traders. Ravi Omprakash Agrawal, Propritor of L7 group, is reportedly hiding in a foreign country and cops are preparing to get hold of him, the kingpin of Dabba trading in Central India.

Meanwhile, the EoW is working hard on building an impeccable body of evidence against the accused so that they will get their extended custody. The EoW sleuths are in constant touch with Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) to prepare a flawless documentation for the case.
All teams of Crime Branch including detection teams are also working hard on the Dabba trading case as this is considered to be the biggest achievement of Nagpur Police in the current year.

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...
