Two suspects involved in firing outside Disha Patani's Bareilly home killed in encounter

LUCKNOW: Two active members of the Rohit Godara-Goldy Barar gang, allegedly involved in firing outside Bollywood actress Disha Patani's residence in Bareilly, were shot dead in an encounter near Tronica City in Ghaziabad on Wednesday, officials said. The encounter was carried out in a joint operation by Delhi Police Special Cell, Uttar Pradesh STF and Haryana STF, they said. The deceased were identified as Ravinder, a resident of Haryana's Rohtak and Arun from Haryana's Sonipat, they said. A senior officer of the Haryana STF confirmed that both were shot dead and a personnel of the Special Cell also sustained injuries during the encounter. The duo had a direct role in the Bareilly firing case, which had sparked security concerns around high-profile personalities. The incident was suspected to be an intimidation tactic linked to extortion, an officer of Delhi Police Special Cell said. Senior officers said further investigation is underway to trace other gang members who remain absconding. Unidentified assailants had fired multiple rounds outside Patani's Bareilly residence around 3.45 am on September 12, creating panic in the locality. A case was registered at the Bareilly Kotwali police station, and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath directed immediate action in the matter, reiterating the state government's zero-tolerance policy towards crime. Additional Director General (ADG) Law and Order, Amitabh Yash, said that police examined CCTV footage, gathered intelligence inputs, and matched records from neighbouring states, leading to the identification of the shooters as Ravindra, son of Kallu, resident of Kahni in Rohtak, and Arun, son of Rajendra, resident of Indian Colony, Gohana Road in Sonipat. Earlier, the officials said that a joint team of the STF's Noida unit and Delhi Police intercepted the duo in Tronica City, Ghaziabad. In the ensuing exchange of fire, both accused sustained serious injuries and were rushed to the hospital for treatment. The ADG confirmed that both Ravindra and Arun are active members of the Rohit Godara-Goldy Brar gang. Ravindra has a criminal history and has been involved in several previous cases. A Glock and a Zigana pistol, along with a large quantity of cartridges, were recovered from the spot, he added.

Uttar Pradesh woman on Pashupatinath pilgrimage in Nepal dies in arson

LUCKNOW: Nepals ongoing unrest turned a Ghaziabad familys pilgrimage to the Pashupatinath temple into tragedy after rioters set fire to a luxury hotel in Kathmandu where they were staying, leaving a woman dead. Dozens of Indian tourists are stranded in the violence-hit country. Ramveer Singh Gola, 58, never knew that a spiritual sojourn with his wife Rajesh Gola would become her journey to the heavenly abode. He travelled to Kathmandu to visit the Pashupatinath temple on September 7. On September 8, violent protests broke out in the Himalayan state demanding transparency in governance and lifting of the ban on social media platforms. The deadly night of September 9 proved to be the nemesis of the Golas as their five-star hotel was set ablaze during the violent protests. Demonstrators tried to storm parliament and torched various government and private establishments as the agitation turned violent. According to relatives, Ramveer Gola and his wife were staying on the upper floor of the hotel when protesters set the lower floors on fire. In panic, Ramveer attempted to rescue his wife to safety using a curtain, but she slipped from his grasp and fell, sustaining severe injuries. She was rushed to the hospital but succumbed on the way due to excessive bleeding and injuries. On Friday morning at 10:30 am, family members brought her body to their residence in Master Colony, Ghaziabad. As per family sources, the violent mob stormed the hotel and set it on fire. As the stairways filled with smoke, Ramveer broke the windowpane, tied sheets, and jumped onto a mattress, while Rajesh Gola slipped while trying to climb down and fell heavily on her back. According to the account of Vishal, the elder son of the Golas, communication blackouts hampered their search. For two days, we didnt know about their whereabouts. Finally, my father was found in a relief camp, but my mother died in the hospital, he said while talking to media persons. The son also alleged that he received minimal support from the Indian embassy. Meanwhile, several groups of UP pilgrims remain stranded in Nepal as violent protests continue to disrupt normal life in the Himalayan nation. The India-Nepal border in Maharajganj witnessed a surge of returning tourists as many cut short their trips amid escalating unrest. A group of 10 pilgrims from Muzaffarnagar, in western UP, who had travelled to visit the Pashupatinath temple, have been confined to their hotel for the past three days. The group includes local BJP leader Sunil Kumar Tayal, who has sought assistance from state minister Kapil Dev Aggarwal. Similarly, nine pilgrims from Ayodhya, who set out on the Mansarovar pilgrimage, are stranded in Hilsa at the Nepal-China border. Most of them were preparing to return, but the arson and unrest in Nepal closed the routes. However, according to available information, all the pilgrims are safe and in contact with their families. Ayodhya DM Nikhil Tikaram Funde told media persons that he was observing the situation and was trying to ensure the safe exit of the pilgrims. Nine individuals departed from Ayodhya on September 1 to visit Kailash Mansarovar. On their return journey, they got stuck in Nepal after passing through China. Although their families claim to be in contact with them, efforts are underway to bring them back safely by coordinating with the Indian Embassy in Nepal, said the DM. Those stranded in Nepal include Sushil Rajpal, Chaman Singh, Madan Jaiswal, Vikas Gupta, Ramakant Yadav, Shailendra Agrahari, Anoop Kumar Singh, Prakash Srivastava, and Hari Shyam Tripathi.

Nitish Katara murder: SC asks Vikas Yadav to move Delhi HC for further extension of interim bail

NEW DELHI: After granting several interim extensions of bail toconvictVikas Yadav -- undergoing a 25-year jail term in the 2002 Nitish Katara murder case -- the Supreme Court on Monday in its order refused to give any further relief to him. It instead asked him to approach the Delhi High Court for a breather. The order of the top court is a big setback to Yadav, whose interim bail was to expire on September 9, Tuesday. The two-judge bench of the top court, headed by Justice M M Sundresh and Justice Satish Chandra Sharma, in their order on Monday refused to further extend the interim bail of Yadav. During the brief hearing, Yadav's lawyer pleaded to the apex court that instead of sending him to the high court, the top court itself hear his plea for bail extension. The SC refused the prayers and told him to move the Delhi HC for relieffor extension or grant of fresh interim bail in the case. Nitish Katara case: SC extends Yadavs interim bail Earlier on September 1, the Supreme Court Judge Justice N Kotiswar Singh, recused from hearing the matter. The top court has been extending interim bail toYadavon medical grounds. Earlier on April 24, the Supreme Court had granted interim bail till May 8 -- with certain terms and conditions --toYadav, who is serving a 25-year-long jail term in 2002Nitish Kataramurder case, in view of his mothers health condition. The bench of the apex court had earlier directed that his mother shall be admitted to AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) immediately for two days for medical examination by a board of doctors to be constituted for examine her health condition. Wedirect that the petitioner's (Vikas Yadav) mother to be examined by AIIMS, Delhi, doctors, the SC had ordered. While granting interim bail earlier to convictYadav, the apex court had directed that he will only meet his ailing mother. The top court in its April 24 order further directed thatYadavshall furnish a bail bond of one lakh rupees with one surety of the like amount and he shall reside only at his residence in Raj Nagar, Ghaziabad. Itasked Uttarakhand and Delhi police to provide security to witnesses and NeelamKatara, keeping in view the fact thatYadavwould be on interim bail till May 8. A trial court in May 2008 heldVikas Yadavguilty of murderingNitish Katarafor being in a relationship with his sister, Bharti. On October 3, 2016, the apex court awarded a 25-yearjail term without any benefit of remission toVikas Yadav, son of controversial Uttar Pradesh politician DPYadav, and his cousin VishalYadavfor their role in the kidnapping and killing of business executiveKatara.

Ghaziabad YouTuber, known for cringe content, booked for mocking BSP chief Mayawati

LUCKNOW: YouTuber Puneet Superstar (Prakash Kumar), known for his bizarre and cringe videos, landed in legal soup for calling former UP CM and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati mummy. Puneet was booked by Ghaziabad police following strong protests by BSP leaders. In one of his videos, he had also called Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav papa recently. Puneet, on Tuesday, posted a video on his Instagram account addressing BSP chief Mayawati as 'Mummy' while attaching her photo to his clip. Puneet has 10.8 crore followers in Instagram. The video, in which he repeatedly referred to the BSP chief as 'mummy' mockingly, went viral, drawing sharp reaction from BSP workers as they found it deeply insulting and derogatory. On Wednesday evening, BSP Ghaziabad district president Narendra Mohit, accompanied by Mandal Prabhari Dayaram Sain, Metropolitan Vice-President Pankaj Sharma, and District General Secretary Lekhraj Bauddh, approached Shalimar Garden Police Station in Ghaziabad and submitted a complaint. According to the complaint, Puneet, a resident of Bhopura Extension-2, Ghaziabad, used his Instagram account under the handle puneetsuperr_star to mock BSP chief Mayawati. She is popularly known as Behenji among her supporters and in political circles. Such acts are intended to disrupt social harmony and spread disrespect towards a leader who commands immense respect across the country, the complaint stated. Narendra Mohit, also an advocate, urged the police to take the strictest possible legal action to ensure that no one dares to indulge in such indecent behaviour against public figures in the future. Ghaziabad DCP Nimish Patil confirmed that a case was lodged against the YouTuber under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the IT Act. Facing mounting criticism and an FIR, Puneet quickly posted another video on Instagram, apologising for his actions. Folding his hands in the video, he said: Greetings my friends, last night I made a video about former Chief Minister Mayawati ji. My intention was not to hurt anyones feelings. If anyones sentiments have been hurt, I fold my hands and apologise. I will never make such a mistake again. Jai Shri Ram. The apology video also went viral but little did it pacify BSP workers, who kept on demanding strict action against the social media content creator. However, Puneet_Superstar seems to have a penchant for such antics. Recently, he had posted another video calling Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav his Papa and urged him to buy an iPhone 16 Pro Max. The video had generated quite a buzz online. Over the years, Puneet has built an identity around his unconventional and cringe-inducing content, which has helped him amass millions of followers. However, he has also invited criticism for crossing limits, for being disrespectful and creating content in bad taste. He has more than 208K subscribers on YouTube but earned more fame on Instagram where his short clips consistently attract massive engagement. In 2023, he had featured in Bigg Boss OTT Season 2 with a 24-hour stint inside the house. His behavour was then described as 'cringe'.

SC bars feeding of stray dogs on streets, asks civic bodies to create dedicated spaces for it

NEW DELHI: Feeding of stray dogs will not be permitted on streets, the Supreme Court on Friday ruled as it directed the municipal authorities of Delhi-NCR to create dedicated spaces for it. A three-judge special bench headed by Justice Vikram Nath said the feeding areas have to be identified keeping in view the population and concentration of stray dogs in a particular municipal ward. Under no conditions shall the feeding of stray dogs on the streets be permitted, the bench, also comprising Justices Sandeep Mehta and N V Anjaria, said. The top court further directed for the installation of notice boards near designated feeding areas, specifying the area was meant to feed stray dogs. Persons found feeding stray dogs on the streets would be liable to be proceeded with under relevant legal framework. The aforesaid directions are being issued in view of the reports regarding untoward incidents caused by unregulated feeding of stray dogs and to ensure that practice of feeding dogs on the roads and in public places is eliminated as the said practice creates great difficulties for the common man walking on the streets, it added. Each municipal authority was also ordered to create a dedicated helpline for reporting incidents of violation of the directions. The top court ordered appropriate measures against the individual or organisation concerned once complaints were received on the helpline. The bench modified the apex court's August 11 direction prohibiting release of stray dogs from dog shelters in Delhi-National Capital Region (NCR), and said the picked up canines should be sterilised, vaccinated and released back in the same area. The bench, however, said municipal authorities shall continue to comply with the direction asking them to start picking up and rounding stray dogs from all localities of Delhi, Ghaziabad, Noida, Faridabad and Gurugram. The apex court said the August 11 direction prohibiting the release of picked up stray dogs shall be kept in abeyance for the time being. The dogs that are picked up shall be sterilised, dewormed, vaccinated and released back in the same area from which they were picked up, it said. The bench clarified this relocation shall not apply to dogs infected with rabies or suspected to be infected with rabies and those that display aggressive behaviour. The top court passed the order on the interim prayer seeking a stay on some of the directions passed on August 11 by a two-judge bench. The bench delivered its order on Friday in a suo motu case initiated on July 28 over a media report on stray dog bites leading to rabies, particularly among children, in the national capital. Widespread protests were reported across the country following the apex court's August 11 order. Later, the matter came up for hearing on August 14 before a three-judge special bench which observed the whole problem of stray dogs in Delhi-NCR was a result of the inaction of local authorities which did othing in implementing the Animal Birth Control Rules on sterilisation and immunisation of canines.

MHAs wanted Hashim Baba gang aide held in Ghaziabad for GTB hospital killing

NEW DELHI: A 23-year-old alleged member of Hashim Baba gang, wanted in a murder case at GTB hospital last year, was arrested from Ghaziabad, police said on Thursday. The incident took place on July 14, 2024, when Riyazuddin (35), who was admitted in GTB hospital, was shot dead by the assailants in a mistaken identity. Hashim Baba gang shooters planned to eliminate one Waseem of the Chhainu Gang as revenge for an earlier assault with a blade on their members. Waseem had narrowly escaped a prior attack and was undergoing treatment at GTB hospital. On the day of the incident, in a case of mistaken identity, the attackers shot dead Riyazudin, a patient unrelated to the gang rivalry, instead of their intended target. During investigation, it was revealed that Ayan, along with his associates, had conducted multiple recce of GTB hospital from July 9 to 13. On July 14, Ayan assisted the shooters by carrying out surveillance inside the hospital premises, helping coordinate the movement of the assailants, and ensuring target tracking while keeping his phone switched off to avoid detection, a senior police officer said. His active role in the conspiracy was established through CCTV footage and witness accounts. Ten accused, involved in the whole conspiracy, were arrested just after the incident but Ayan was at large. Police got a tip-off that Ayan was present in Ghaziabad area. A trap was laid on Wednesday and nabbed Ayan near the Ghaziabad New Bus Stand petrol pump, Deputy Commissioner of Police (crime) Aditya Gautam said. Ayan disclosed that he came in contact with members of the Hashim Baba Gang through one Faheem. Lured by the promise of money, he joined their plan to eliminate Waseem. He assisted the shooters on the day of the incident. He also mentioned about the gangs communication methods, which included encrypted messaging apps like Signal, Instagram chats, and WhatsApp, and how they switched off their phones before surveillance trips to avoid location tracking.
