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...

Kalamna Police arrested two sons of Jivraj Patel


Kalamna Police arrested two sons of Jivraj Patel, President of Maa Umiya Industrial Co-Operative Society, for alleged fraud in grabbing a two-acre plot. The accused have been charged for fabricating documents from a dead person. The cops produced in the court on Friday and obtained four days custody for custodial interrogation. 


The arrested accused have been identified as Dinesh Jivraj Halpani Patel and Sanjay Jivraj Halpani Patel. The accused were produced in the court no 3 where police demanded PCR for custodial interrogation. After hearing both sides, the court remanded the accused to four-days custody.

According to complainant Ashok Wadhwani, the Patels gobbled adjoining four acres land in Mouza Kapsi. Kalamna police had registered offence under section 419, 420, 465,468,471 R/w sec. 34 of Indian Penal Code charging them with grabbing six acres of land on the basis of a questionable sale deed purportedly signed by a person who had died four decades ago. 
According to Wadhwani, 2.40 hectare land bearing khasra no. 47 on Mouza Kapsi (patwari halka number 20) was purchased by Maa Umiya promoters on February 3, 1998 from one Tulshiram Urkude. However according to complainant, Urkude had dead long back and was not owner of land which Patel claimed to have purchased and hence entire transaction was bogus and fraudulent. The complainant claimed that they had purchased 0.81 Ha land from said 2.40 hectare land from legal owner of Khasra no. 47 Yograj Thakre and Madhukar Urkude in 2004. Similarly, remaining 1.59 Ha land was also purchased by Wadhwani from them. He claimed that a notice from District Collectorate informing about requirement of this land for Maa Umiya Industrial Co-Operative Society alerted him and he obtained details under RTI. Claiming ownership and possession of land, Wadhwani alleged that Maa Umiya Society promoter then allegedly prepared a bogus sale deed to gobble-up land whose market value is estimated in crores. 


Kalamna police station had already registered an offence against Maa Umiya Industrial Co-Operative Society chief Jivraj Patel and had arrested him in connection with grabbing government land. Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT) too had approached Nagpur police seeking criminal prosecution against Maa Umiya Society and its office-bearers. NIT has made it clear that it had not sanctioned any plan in respect of 378 acre land in Mouza Kapsi, Tarodi  and Asoli villages on Bhandara Road, belonging to Maa Umiya and claimed that as Planning Authority for Metro Region it would take necessary action against Maa Umiya, for violation of MRTP, Regional Development Plan and for act done or initiated by society without obtaining prior permission of the competent authority.

A PIL filed by a vigilant citizen Anil Wadpalliwar had alleged massive irregularities, illegalities and mischief committed by Maa Umiya Industrial Co-Operative Estate to grab farmers’ land on Bhandara road and to forcibly acquire land for a pittance under the garb of developing a project of public importance, without any valid permission. The society in its affidavit-in-reply had refuted all allegations and denied any wrong doing.

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...
