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...

332 teenage girls kidnapped from city in 2021

By

Nagpur ranked 6th in kidnapping and abduction of minors (aged below 18) cases among the 19 metropolitan cities of India in 2021. About 410 cases of kidnapping and abduction of minors were registered in Nagpur last year, of which 332 victims were girls, revealed data of National Crime Record Bureau.
The cases of kidnapping and abduction of minors decreased in Nagpur in the past three years. However, the number is still high with the population ratio. As against 536 kidnapping cases in 2019, the cases dipped to 334 in 2020 and again rose to 415 in 2021.
According to NCRB, Nagpur recorded 16.6 kidnapping rate while Mumbai saw 8.6 kidnapping rate and Pune recorded 11.3 kidnapping rate. The kidnapping rate describes the number of kidnapping cases reported to law enforcement agencies per lakh population. It means that 16.6 minors in each one lakh population are victims of kidnapping in the city.
The data stated that two children - boy (1) and girl (1) - below the age of six were kidnapped and abducted in 2021. About 19 children - boys (11) and girls (8) - between the age group of six and 12; 49 boys and 140 girls between the age group of 12 and 16; and 17 boys and 183 girls between the age group of 16 and 18 were kidnapped and abducted in Nagpur. Gender-wise, most victims were girls. About 332 girls were kidnapped while 78 victims were boys, according to the data.
Experts on the issue said that the cases of kidnapping are on the rise in Nagpur and its become difficult for police, in some cases, to trace the victims. In many cases, girls went missing with their boyfriends. Parents of most of these missing girls are daily wage workers, he said and added that proper communication with parents could resolve the issue. The police observed that the investigation in missing persons cases is very difficult, especially in the age group of 0-12 years. During investigations, the police hit a wall as there are no leads to explore and no clues to explore, he said.
Joint Commissioner of Police Aswati Dorje took an initiative to reverse the trend and organised seminars for the teenage girl living in the slums. The minor girls were given lessons about the bad touch and good touch along with cases of kidnapping cases.

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...
