Delhi Police arrests two cyber criminals for Rs 27 lakh bank fraud in 2021
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 10 (IANS) Two absconding cyber criminals from a Jamtara-based gang were arrested by Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations (IFSO) unit of Delhi Police Special Cell, five years after they duped a Delhi resident of Rs 27 lakh using a fake bank website, a Delhi Police official said on Tuesday. Mohd. Mehruddin Ansari (30) and Mohd. Arsad Ansari (29), both residents of district Jamtara, Jharkhand, were arrested on October 30 after they surrendered before a Delhi court, the official said. The police said both the accused are educated up to matriculation and played key roles in designing fake bank websites and facilitating fraudulent customer care operations. The case involved a Delhi resident who fell in the gangs trap and landed on a fake Canara Bank website created by the gang in the guise of customer support, the police said. The bank customer, Bishwajeet Paul, who had a cheque-related query, had used information from the gangs fraudulent website www.customercomplaintregisters.com, designed to resemble the official Canara Bank website using the bank's logo and similar layout, the police said. After the complainant entered his bank account details on the instruction of a fake tele-caller, the gang illegally transferred Rs 27.10 lakh from his account to eight different bank accounts, the police said. During the investigation, eight accused were arrested earlier, including persons involved in arranging and handling beneficiary bank accounts and facilitating the withdrawal and transfer of cheated money. A charge sheet was filed against two accused persons, namely Baharuddin Ansari and Basaruddin Ansari. Six other accused persons were also arrested subsequently and are presently on regular bail. However, two key accused persons, namely Mohd. Mehruddin Ansari and Mohd. Arsad Ansari, remained absconding and were evading arrest despite repeated raids and sustained efforts by the investigating team. Non-Bailable Warrants were also issued against them by the court, the police said.

Digital Desk | Deoghar (Jharkhand), Nov 10 (IANS) Former Congress President late Sitaram Kesri's grandson, Rakesh Kesri, on Tuesday, refuted allegations that senior party leader Sonia Gandhi had a role in his removal as the party chief in 1998. Instead, he said, Sonia Gandhi immediately rushed to Kesri's residence and described him as a great leader. This was stated by Sonia Gandhi in her memoir Belonging: A Journey of Love, where she recalled that in 1998, after being elected party President at the CWC meeting, she straight went to Kesri's residence and touched his feet to seek blessings, leaving the latter surprised. Recounting the emotional meeting, she wrote that Kesri expressed surprise at her unexpected presence, but with moist eyes, placed his hand on her head, and blessed her. Speaking to IANS, Rakesh Kesri also said that Sonia Gandhi made sacrifices for the country as well as for the party. I was only about 25 or 26 years old at that time; I did not know much as I am not a political person, but her dedication to the party and her sacrifice are things we understand from history. It is recorded that she made sacrifices for the party and for the country, he said. Asked if Sonia Gandhi was opposed by others from becoming the Prime Minister at that time, he rebutted the claim, calling it her own sacrifice. There was no one to oppose her. It was her own sacrifice. What difference would opposition have made when all the MPs were with her? She herself probably did not want the position, he said. Further, Rakesh Kesri maintained that his grandfather shared a very good relationship with the Gandhi family and refuted reports that Sonia Gandhi had any role in Sitaram Kesri's removal as Congress chief. We were young then...Kesri ji would always say that it was 'Congress-I', meaning Indira Congress. He never called it his own Congress. The Gandhi family had a very good relationship with him, he said. The incident that happened occurred because of certain people with a particular ideology and mindset, he added. According to Rakesh Kesri, when Sonia Gandhi learnt about Sitaram Kesri's removal as party President, she was among the first to go to his residence on Purana Qila Road. She spoke to him and described him as a great leader. Asked whether the Gandhi family maintained contact with the Kesri family after the former Congress chief's demise in 2000, he said: Yes, they remain in touch with us, and we continue to meet. Last year, on October 24, we even observed Sitaram Kesari's 25th death anniversary. We wrote a letter, and it was immediately accepted (by Congress leadership). We received a phone call in response, and then (Sitaram Kesri's) 25th death anniversary was observed by the party, he said, referring to it as the Congress' mark of respect for Kesri. As soon as we sent the letter, it was accepted, and the entire event was organised by the party at its own expense. What more could we ask for? Rakesh Kesri said. Meanwhile, recounting the emotional meeting in her book, Sonia Gandhi wrote that Sitaram Kesri expressed surprise at her unexpected presence, but with moist eyes, placed his hand on her head and blessed her.

'Dimagi Naxals' next on govt target, Kiren Rijiju tells Rahul Gandhi
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 10 (IANS) Taking aim at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Tuesday credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi for eliminating Naxalism and warned the opposition leaders that days of Dimagi Naxals are also numbered. Criticising Rahul Gandhi for trivialising the Union government's success in ending Left-wing extremism, Rijiju on social media platform X said, Rahul ji, thank Modi ji for eliminating the Armed Maoists. Former PM Manmohan Singh ji had famously described Left-Wing Extremism and Naxalism as 'The single biggest internal security threat' to India. Next target is to finish Dimagi Naxals. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress have recently been exchanging verbal blows over the fight against Naxalism and foreign intervention in Indian politics. Interacting with CRPF personnel in Chhattisgarh, PM Modi had said that the elimination of Naxalism is not the final destination and that the country still faces the challenge of countering 'Dimagi Naxals' who have taken control of several organisations. In a veiled attack on Rahul Gandhi and other INDIA bloc parties questioning the integrity of institutions like the Election Commission of India (ECI), the Prime Minister said, Even today, they are inciting people against the country's Constitution and democracy. These 'Dimagi Naxals' have also infiltrated several political parties and different organisations. We must identify them, defeat them and ensure the security of the nation. Later, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi challenged PM Modi for a public debate regarding allegations of being 'Dimagi Naxals' and anti-nationals controlled by foreign entities. Responding to Rahul Gandhi's claims, four-time BJP MP from Jharkhand Nishikant Dubey on Monday questioned the Congress leader's meeting with two Chinese Ministers during a Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage in 2018. In a post on X, Dubey asked Rahul Gandhi to answer his two key questions. Question 1. Mr Rahul Gandhi, when you went on the Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage in 2018, which two Chinese Ministers did you meet? 2. After the 2008 agreement between @INCIndia and the Communist Party of China, which 200 people have you sent to China under the exchange program by 2018? What are their names and addresses? the BJP MP asked.
