ED raids four places in Bengal in Rs 280 crore bank fraud case
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Oct 30 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate on Friday was conducting search operations at multiple locations in West Bengal, in a bank fraud case worth Rs 280 crore. It is alleged that money from a power plant in Jharkhand was laundered to Kolkata. ED had taken note of a chartered accountant in the Lake Town area in north Kolkata for allegedly opening shell companies and committing corruption worth crores of rupees. Besides Kolkata, the raid is also underway in Uttarpara in Hooghly district, Asansol in West Burdwan district and in Howrah. ED officials entered the house of Sudipto Ghosh, a resident of Shibtala Street in Uttarpara, this morning. The ED investigation team was accompanied by central forces personnel. Sudipto Ghosh is a chartered accountant by profession. The family is being questioned, and their house is being searched. Ghosh, however, has said that he has no connection with the corruption case. The investigators have taken permission for the probe, and he is cooperating with the central investigation agency. ED officials have also raided the house of Chartered Accountant (CA) Ashok Sarathi in the elite Avni Oxford (Phase 1) housing complex in Lake Town. A vigorous search operation and interrogation were being conducted there since morning under the strict guard of the central forces. According to sources in the investigating agency, the search is being conducted on charges of embezzlement and money laundering of money taken from the bank in the name of building a power project or power plant in Jharkhand. The name of the main private company under investigation is Kohinoor Power Private Limited (KPPL). The CA is accused of taking a loan from the bank on the pretext of setting up a 66 MW power plant in Jharkhand. The amount of this loan taken from the bank consortium was about Rs 280 crore. It has been alleged that the money taken in the name of building a power plant was not used for the project but was embezzled through a web of shell companies. The officials believe that chartered accountant Ashok Sarathi has a major role in this financial scam. Currently, in addition to questioning the chartered accountant inside the residence, the ED officials are searching for digital documents, bank accounts and various suspicious papers. It remains to be seen what other information comes to light at the end of the investigation. According to the ED, the investigation was initiated on the basis of the complaint filed by the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) before the Ld. 2nd Special Court, Kolkata, in respect of the affairs of Kohinoor Power Private Limited (KPPL) and others. An investigation into the affairs of the company was ordered by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) pursuant to the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) forwarding a list of companies in respect of which the Resolution Professional (RP) had filed applications before the NCLT concerning avoidance transactions.

Jharkhand: Woman dies during abortion after prenatal sex determination test, 2 arrested
Digital Desk | Dhanbad, Oct 29 (IANS) A woman in Jharkhand's Dhanbad died during a botched abortion procedure following illegal foetal sex determination at a diagnostic centre. The incident has once again brought into focus clinics that still carry out the banned procedures. Prenatal sex determination and gender selection are strictly illegal in India under the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PC-PNDT) Act, 1994. Following the incident, the police have arrested the victim's husband and the operator of the diagnostic centre. The deceased woman has been identified as Kiran Kumari. According to officials, the deceased woman's family has made serious allegations that her husband decided to force an abortion after learning that the fetus was female. Acting swiftly in the case, the police arrested the woman's husband, Sonu Kewat, and the operator of Central Diagnostic Centre located at Shyamdih Chowk, Sachin Kewat. The diagnostic center has also been sealed. The victim's brother, Chandrika Kumar, said that Kiran was three to four months pregnant. The couple already had a daughter. Family members allege that after the second pregnancy, the husband arranged for a sex determination test and, upon discovering that the foetus was a girl, pressured her into undergoing an illegal abortion. According to the allegations, Kiran suffered excessive bleeding during the abortion procedure, causing her condition to deteriorate rapidly. She was rushed to Sanjeevani Hospital, where doctors declared her dead. Angered by her death, family members staged a protest at the hospital premises and demanded strict legal action against those responsible. They also alleged that doctors and adequate medical assistance were not available in time at the hospital. Katras Sub-Divisional Police Officer Ajit Kumar Vimal confirmed the incident, stating that as soon as information was received, a police team reached the spot and began an investigation. Preliminary findings suggest that the death resulted from an improperly conducted abortion and severe blood loss. A team from the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) has also been called in to conduct scientific and technical examinations of all aspects of the case.
Jharkhand Hindu priest found dead at home in Dhanbad, murder suspected
Digital Desk | Dhanbad, Oct 29 (IANS) A Hindu priest (Pujari) was found dead at his residence in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Thursday. Police officials suspect that he was strangled and attacked with a sharp-edged weapon. The deceased, identified as Munna Pandey, also known as Munna Pandit, was found inside his house in Amatand under the jurisdiction of Katras police station. Police have launched an investigation into the suspected murder, though the circumstances surrounding the death and the identity of those involved remain unclear. According to preliminary information, Pandey worked as a pujari at the Lilori Sthan temple and lived alone at his house in Amatand. Local residents became suspicious when they noticed no activity at his residence on Thursday. They subsequently informed the police. A team from Katras police station reached the spot and searched the premises, where the body was found. On receiving information about the incident, Ajit Kumar Vimal, Sub-Divisional Police Officer (SDPO) of Baghmara, also visited the scene and reviewed the situation. During the preliminary examination, police found marks suggesting pressure on the deceased's neck, along with injuries that appeared to have been inflicted with a sharp-edged weapon. The exact cause of death and the sequence of events leading to the incident are yet to be established. Police officials inspected the house and the surrounding area and began collecting evidence to determine the circumstances of the suspected crime. Investigators are examining all possible angles and may seek assistance from forensic experts and a dog squad, depending on the requirements of the investigation. The deceased's family members have been informed about the incident. Police are also attempting to establish whether the killing was linked to personal enmity, robbery or any other motive. No clear information has emerged so far regarding the suspected assailants. SDPO Ajit Kumar Vimal said the incident appeared to be a murder at first glance and that the police were investigating all possible aspects of the case.

Jharkhand HC advocate death case: Husband Kushagra Rudra Rana surrenders in court
Digital Desk | Hazaribagh, Oct 29 (IANS) The husband of Anushka Chakraborty, a practising advocate of the Jharkhand High Court, whose body was found under suspicious circumstances a few days ago, surrendered before the Chief Judicial Magistrate in Hazaribagh on Thursday. Confirming the development, Rupesh Kumar Singh, Sub-Divisional Police Officer (Sadar), said the police would move the court seeking accused Kushagra Rudra Rana's custodial remand for interrogation. The accused had been absconding since the incident. Police launched search operations in Jharkhand and two other states. Authorities had also initiated proceedings to cancel his passport and arms licence and freeze his bank accounts as part of efforts to secure his arrest. On October 22, the body of Anushka Chakraborty was found hanging inside Flat No. 304 of Gupta Complex in Hazaribagh under circumstances that raised suspicion. Following her death, her family accused her husband and his relatives of dowry-related harassment and murder. They demanded a thorough investigation and justice for the deceased advocate. After the incident, Kushagra Rudra Rana and his family members reportedly went into hiding. Meanwhile, the victim's family moved the Jharkhand High Court, which directed that the investigation be conducted by an officer of the rank of DSP. Shortly before surrendering, Kushagra Rudra Rana released a video on social media in which he rejected all allegations against him and instead blamed his wife's family for the circumstances leading to her death. He alleged that his father-in-law frequently interfered in his business affairs and pressured him to appoint him as a director in the company. He further claimed that he was subjected to financial pressure and was coerced into parting with money and valuables. In the video, he also referred to Manoj Mahto, a representative of Ramgarh MLA Mamta Devi, alleging that Rs 7 lakh was transferred from the company's bank account and another Rs 10 lakh was paid in cash in connection with an alleged promise of influence in the Jharkhand Public Service Commission examination process. The accused further claimed that marital disputes arose due to what he described as his wife's close association with another woman advocate while they were living in Ranchi. These claims, however, have not been independently verified. Police are expected to seek custody of the accused for further questioning as the investigation into the advocate's death continues.

JSCA Files Complaint With BCCI Over Scoring Error That Cost Women's U19 Team
The Jharkhand State Cricket Association: The Jharkhand State Cricket Association (JSCA) has made an official complaint to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) over an alleged scoring error that cost the women's U19 team in the T20 championship pre-quarter-final against Uttarakhand. The JSCA has called for the BCCI's attention to the matter, where they were denied a run as the scorers made an error, and they went on to lose the match by one run in the end. As per Cricinfo, the scoring error took place in the final over of Jharkhand's clash against Uttarakhand in the 135-run chase in Nagpur last week. They were 127/7 at the end of the 19th over and needed another eight runs from six balls to win the game. They took three runs from the first three balls and then needed another five from the next three. Then came the turning moment when Lakshmi Kumari was run out on the fourth ball while attempting two runs with Eshika Bhagat in the middle. The report added that the batters completed a run before the dismissal, but the scorers did not record the run and instead registered only a run-out, which led Jharkhand to need five runs off the last two balls. Bowler Kanika Negi then bowled a wide on the next delivery, bringing the equation to four needed off two balls. On the next ball, No.10 Isha was run out while attempting two runs. This time the run was recorded to bring it down to three off the final ball. As Bhagat faced the final ball, No. 11 Ishika Deepak was also run out while the batters attempted for a couple of runs. The run was credited as Jharkhand lost by one run in the end. But the JSCA pointed out that the non-credited run on the fourth ball was the difference in the end. Speaking on the incident, head coach Jaskaran Singh called for a look into the matter. This was the first time Jharkhand had qualified for the knockouts of the women's Under-19, so the result is extremely disappointing, Jaskaran said, as quoted by Cricinfo. Had this been a league game, the situation may have been different. For players in particular, tournaments like these are extremely important. As Bhagat faced the final ball, No. 11 Ishika Deepak was also run out while the batters attempted for a couple of runs. The run was credited as Jharkhand lost by one run in the end. But the JSCA pointed out that the non-credited run on the fourth ball was the difference in the end. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

WPL 2027 Auction: Happy With The Depth Weve Built, Says MI Head Coach Luke Williams
T20 World Cup: Mumbai Indians (MI) head coach Luke Williams said the franchise had used the 2027Womens Premier League (WPL) auction to build depth around its retained core, adding that he was excited to see several young players get a chance to be a part of the league. The two-time champions signed six uncapped Indian players at the auction held in Kochi on Wednesday. Shweta Sehrawat was bought for Rs 20 lakh, while Disha Kasat, Latika Inamdar, Bharti Rawal, Saanika Chalke and Akshita Bhagat came in for Rs 10 lakh each. Delhi-based Shweta, UP Warriorzs lone retention in 2026 and a member of Indias 2023 U-19 Womens T20 World Cup winning squad, drew a bidding battle between MI and Delhi Capitals before going for double her base price. Certainly. Obviously, with the retentions, we had a sort of solid core group that we were able to retain. So certainly today was about trying to add to the group, whether thats in the starting XI potentially, or if not, providing different options and coverage through the tournament, depending on what surfaces we play on and if there are any injuries or players out of form. So, really happy with the depth that weve built across different areas and really excited to work with some new players, said Williams in the post-auction press conference. The coach credited MIs scouting team for identifying the recruits. Obviously the scouts did a lot of work identifying different players and then going through various networks to do our research. So, really happy with how its unfolded and excited that some young players get an opportunity at the WPL. Among the new faces, Vidarbha duo Kasat and Inamdar arrived in form, having played key roles in a tense chase against Punjab in the Senior Womens T20 Trophy in Lucknow only a day before the auction. Disha opened and made an unbeaten 66 off 52 balls, while Latika hit 17 off eight balls. Saanika, a 20-year-old left-handed top-order batter, was part of Indias 2025 Under-19 T20 World Cup-winning squad and struck 85 off 53 balls against Jharkhand in the same tournament. Akshita won the Under-23 event of the WPL Speed Queen contest with a top speed of 105kph and recently played for India A against Australia A in Mohali.
