J&K Crime Branch files chargesheet in forged L-G signature case

Digital Desk | Srinagar, Oct 1 (IANS) The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Jammu and Kashmir Crime Branch said on Thursday it has filed a chargesheet in the Lt Governors forged signature case. A statement said that Economic Offences Wing (EOW), Crime Branch Kashmir, has filed the chargesheet in case, FIR No. 29/2026 under Sections 204, 319(2), 336(2) and 340(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) before the Court of Sub-Judge, Srinagar, against accused Saqlain Mushtaq Dar, son of Mushtaq Ahmad Dar, a resident of Deeri, Pulwama. The case relates to a forged communication purportedly addressed to the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Anantnag, in which the sender falsely impersonated the Lieutenant Governor, UT of Jammu and Kashmir. The communication was prepared using a counterfeit official letterhead and forged signature and was intended to unlawfully influence the functioning of the Anantnag District Police Administration. During the course of the investigation, the allegations and evidence collected were found to substantiate the commission of offences under the relevant provisions of the BNS. Accordingly, the investigation has been concluded as proved, the statement said, adding that the chargesheet has been presented before the court for judicial determination. The statement also said that the general public is advised to remain vigilant against attempts involving impersonation of public authorities, fabrication and use of forged letters, documents, official letterheads and signatures. The members of the public are urged to verify the authenticity of any suspicious communication purportedly issued by government authorities or public officials and to immediately report any such instance to the Economic Offences Wing, Crime Branch J&K, the officials said. Complaints or information may be brought to the notice of SSP EOW Srinagar (Crime Branch J&K), Abdul Waheed Shah, or communicated through the official email: sspeow-kmr@jkpolice.gov.in EOW investigates high-profile economic offences, where technological backup and full-time efforts of investigators are needed.

TN cybercrime police caution public against online scam offers

Digital Desk | Chennai, Oct 1 (IANS) The Tamil Nadu Police cybercrime wing has urged the public to remain alert to online fraud involving bogus lottery winnings, instant loan applications, scholarship promises and grocery discounts, warning that attractive offers can become traps for stealing money and personal information. In advisories aimed at improving public awareness, police said scammers were using messages and social media posts to draw people into fraudulent schemes. They advised users to check the authenticity of offers before making payments, opening links or providing sensitive information. One common method involves messages claiming that the recipient has won a lottery prize. Fraudsters then demand money under the guise of processing fees, taxes or other charges before the winnings can be released. Police urged people not to transfer money in response to such claims or disclose personal and banking details. Promises of huge winnings should be treated with caution, particularly when the sender seeks an advance payment. The wing also warned against fake grocery promotions offering unusually steep discounts. These advertisements are designed to attract customers and persuade them to follow links that may expose them to fraud. Consumers should verify any promotion through the retailers official website or application, police said. They should avoid unknown links and never share one-time passwords or banking information with anyone responding to an offer. Another advisory focused on fraudulent loan applications that promise access to money. According to police, such apps can be used to collect users personal data, which fraudsters subsequently exploit to harass them over repayments. The warning urged people to exercise caution before downloading applications advertised as providers of instant loans. The advisory also flagged scholarship-related scams among the online schemes against which the public should remain vigilant. People who lose money to cyber fraud, or encounter suspicious online activity, can call the national cybercrime helpline, 1930, or report the matter through cybercrime.gov.in, police said. The cybercrime wing has also been publishing awareness videos through its official social media accounts to explain how these scams operate and the precautions people can take. The advisories emphasise a common precaution across the schemes: verify the source of an offer before acting on it. Whether the message promises a prize, financial assistance or cheaper groceries, users should be wary of demands for money or confidential information.

96% Indian firms hit by business-disrupting cyber incidents: Cisco report

As many as 96 per cent of organisations in India suffered a material, business-disrupting cyber incident over the past 12 months, with more than one in three involving artificial intelligence (AI)-enhanced attacks, according to a report released by technology major Cisco. The study highlighted that internal organisational friction - including bureaucratic approval delays, fragmented data, and disconnected teams - represents a greater impediment to strengthening cyber defences than technological limitations. The findings are part of Cisco's 'Relentless Defense Report', based on a double-blind survey of 8,000 security professionals across 30 markets, including 1,000 respondents from India. The report evaluated organisations on how completely they protect their environments, the speed at which they detect and remediate threats and the operational bottlenecks that slow them down.

Indian-American lawmaker condemns hateful online posts on South Asians

Digital Desk | Washington, Oct 1 (IANS) Indian-American Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi urged political leaders from both parties to confront racism after a research organisation reported a sharp increase in hateful online posts targeting South Asians in the United States. The Illinois Democrat responded to a study by the Center for the Study of Organized Hate that reported a 240 per cent increase in monthly anti-South Asian hate posts on X. According to a summary released by his office, the study identified approximately 542,360 hateful posts targeting South Asians between January 2025 and June 2026. Posts portraying South Asians as invaders, job thieves or a demographic threat accounted for 45 per cent of the material identified, the congressional release said. The figures concern online posts during an 18-month research period. They do not represent a count of physical attacks, reported crimes or individual victims. The 240 per cent surge in monthly anti-South Asian hate on X did not come out of nowhere, Krishnamoorthi said in the statement on Wednesday (local time). He accused politicians and the Trump administration of contributing to hostility towards the community. We have watched politicians demonise South Asians over something as ordinary as attending a college football game and the Trump Administration traffic in racist stereotypes targeting people named Singh. The Congressman's office did not provide further details about those incidents in the release. His remarks were political criticism, separate from the study's numerical findings. Krishnamoorthi called for a response that crossed party lines. Americans of every background, and leaders of both parties, need to speak out against racism and xenophobia wherever they appear. He also defended South Asian Americans' place in the country. South Asian Americans are as much a part of the fabric of America as anyone else, and no amount of hate can erase the contributions we have made to this country. The study, titled The Rising Tide of Anti-South Asian Hate in the United States, identified immigration politics, economic resentment, political rhetoric and the digital amplification of hate among factors driving the increase, according to his office. The fresh development Wednesday was Krishnamoorthi's response and his appeal for political leaders to challenge racism. South Asian Americans include people with family origins across the Indian subcontinent. The category encompasses several national, linguistic and religious communities, so findings concerning South Asians as a group cannot automatically be treated as figures concerning Indian-Americans alone. Krishnamoorthi represents Illinois' 8th Congressional District in the US House of Representatives. A Democrat of Indian origin, he is among the Indian-American lawmakers serving in Congress, where members can raise community concerns through public statements, legislation and oversight.

Polish PM Donald Tusk to visit India with 100 firms in late October: Poland's Finance Minister (IANS Exclusive)

Digital Desk | Milwaukee, Oct 1 (IANS) Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk will visit India at the end of October with nearly 100 leading Polish companies as Warsaw seeks a sharp expansion of economic ties with New Delhi, Poland's Minister of Finance and Economy Andrzej Domanski told IANS. Tusk plans to travel to both New Delhi and Bengaluru, with economic cooperation at the centre of the visit, Domanski said in an exclusive interview on the sidelines of the G20 Trade Ministers' Meeting in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Wednesday (local time). This meeting was like one-on-one without media presence. So what I can say is that we are discussing, among many other topics, the visit of Prime Minister Tusk that will take place at the end of October to India, Domanski said, referring to his meeting with India's Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal. The Prime Minister is planning to visit not only Delhi, but also Bangalore. And this mission will have a very strong economic background and will have strong emphasis on economic issues, he said. Domanski said bilateral relations were improving but remained well below their potential. We are happy that we managed to get a consensus on the India-EU level. That being said, it's up to each member state to enhance cooperation and trade, he said. And I can say that we will bring close to 100 leading Polish companies to participate in this trip to India. The minister described Poland as a rapidly growing European economy, with growth estimated at 3.5 to 3.6 per cent this year. Warsaw, he said, was looking for new trading partners, with India high on that list. India, a giant, a leader in Asia, well, it's a country that we really like to have closer trade relations, Domaski said. Defence, space, machinery and food processing are among the sectors where Poland sees opportunities for greater cooperation with India. As a country that is rapidly developing its defence industry, we believe there's a lot of room for cooperation in the defence industry, he said. We also decided to double our investments in the space industry. For sure, we will bring our space industry companies to India, Domanski said. He said Poland was also strong in machinery and saw opportunities in food processing, including poultry exports. For Indian companies looking at Poland, Domanski pointed to clean energy, information technology and industrial sectors. He also pitched Poland as an entry point to the wider European market. We believe that Poland could be a very interesting hub for Indian investments in Europe, he said. We are a member of the European Union, so by investing in Poland, Indian companies get access to the European Union market. Domanski also placed India's democratic system at the centre of Warsaw's approach to building long-term economic ties. We see India as a global leader. We see India as a country of very ambitious people, like Polish people, he said. We see India as a democracy, which is very important and a country with which we want to build stable economic ties. At the G20 meeting, Domanski said Poland raised what he called the weaponisation of trade in agricultural products. He pointed to disruptions caused by Russia's war in Ukraine and restrictions on Black Sea trade. He also underscored the role he sees for New Delhi in global commerce. India is a leader. India is not only one of the largest, one of the biggest global economies, but really also a country of high GDP growth, he said. I really hope that Poland, the European Union and India will be much closer trade allies, trade partners than they are today. India and Poland elevated their relationship to a Strategic Partnership during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Warsaw in August 2024. The two countries also adopted a five-year action plan covering areas including trade and investment, defence, energy, green technologies, agriculture and infrastructure. PM Modi's trip was the first visit by an Indian prime minister to Poland in 45 years. Tusk last visited India as Poland's Prime Minister in 2010. During PM Modi's 2024 visit, he invited Tusk to visit India.

Chris Hemsworth cheers for daughter India Rose on her achievement, followers question his stance on animal abuse

Digital Desk | Los Angeles, Oct 1 (IANS) Hollywood actor Chris Hemsworth is a proud father, and he doesnt shy away from lauding his daughters achievements publicly. On Wednesday, the actor took to his Instagram, and shared 2 videos of his daughter, India Rose Hemsworths bull riding. He also penned a heartfelt note for his daughter in the caption, as he wrote, Just wanna say my daughter is a savage. Only girl in the comp and took home the win. Proud moment (sic). His followers, however, had different reactions to the videos. One user wrote, The poor bull. Animal abuse should not be entertainment. Another user wrote, Is this the wonderful tradition where they tie the bull's balls with a rope and everytime they kick in the air they pull on them harder? i really hope not. A 3rd user wrote, Please do not promote this. Another user wrote, Shouldn't you be worrying about defeating Doctor Doom. Chris Hemsworth married Spanish actress and model Elsa Pataky in December 2010, after they began dating earlier that year. Their relationship developed quickly, and they have now been together for more than 15 years. The couple have three children: their daughter, India Rose, born in 2012, and twin sons, Sasha and Tristan, born in 2014. India Rose is the eldest of the Hemsworth children and has occasionally appeared alongside her father in films, including Thor: Love and Thunder. Hemsworth has spoken warmly about fatherhood, saying that having children changed his priorities and made him value time at home even more. The family lives in Australia, where Hemsworth and Pataky have focused on giving their children a relatively grounded upbringing away from Hollywood.
