CBI questions Urmila Sanawar in connection with Ankita Bhandari murder case
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 18 (IANS) The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) team investigating the Ankita Bhandari murder case reached the residence of Urmila Sanawar, the alleged wife of former BJP MLA Suresh Rathore, in Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur on Sunday. A four-member CBI team, including a woman officer, reached Sanawar's residence to question her regarding the high-profile case. Earlier this week, Sanawar had participated in a press conference in New Delhi, alongside Bhandari's parents. Sanawar, through a video message, had also demanded that the CBI must interrogate her in the presence of the media since the investigation is not happening under the watch of a sitting Supreme Court judge. This comes a day after the CBI questioned former BJP MLA Rathore at the Shivalik Guest House in Uttarakhand's Haridwar. The CBI took over the probe into the Ankita Bhandari murder case in February this year. Its Delhi-based Special Crime Branch had registered a case against an unknown VIP in connection with the matter. The case had returned to the spotlight early this year after viral audio clips and videos surfaced involving Sanawar. During a Facebook Live session, Sanawar made references to the alleged involvement of a VIP in the murder, triggering fresh controversy and public debate. These developments led to heightened political tensions, with Opposition parties and several organisations renewing demands for a CBI enquiry into the case. Responding to the growing pressure and to address public concerns, the Uttarakhand government moved swiftly to ensure transparency. On January 9, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami formally recommended a CBI investigation. The murder of Bhandari, a 19-year-old receptionist, sparked widespread outrage across Uttarakhand in 2022. She was working as a receptionist at the Vanantra Resort when she was murdered on September 18, 2022. Her body was dumped in the Chilla Shakti Canal and recovered nearly a week later. Following an extensive investigation by a Special Investigation Team, a 500-page charge sheet was filed in the case, naming 97 witnesses, out of whom 47 testified before the court. The prime accused, Pulkit Arya, the owner of Vanantra Resort, along with co-accused Saurabh Bhaskar and Ankit Gupta, were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. Arya was found guilty on multiple serious charges, including murder, tampering with evidence, harassment, and immoral trafficking. Meanwhile, several activists and the Congress have been organising protests in Uttarakhand and Delhi over the appointment of BJP leader Dushyant Gautam as the Governor of Sikkim. Earlier this week, Bhandari's parents staged a sit-in at India Gate, demanding a stop to Gautam's appointment as Governor. Later, along with Garhwal BJP MP Anil Baluni, they met the CBI officials. Bhandari's parents have also demanded that the government put the appointment on hold till the CBI probe is underway. They have urged the government to work towards ensuring that all those guilty of their daughter's murder face strict punishment.

Two rape accused arrested after police encounter in UP's Ghaziabad
Digital Desk | Ghaziabad, Oct 18 (IANS) Two rape accused have been arrested following a police encounter in the Vijay Nagar area of Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad, officials said on Sunday. Both the accused sustained bullet wounds on their legs and are receiving treatment, they added. According to the police, late at night, information was received from an informant that two suspects, wanted in connection with a rape case in the Vijay Nagar area, had been spotted near the Jal Nigam plant in the Sajwan Nagar area. Acting on this tip-off, the Vijay Nagar police set up a barrier near the housing society and began conducting checks, officials said. During the operation, two individuals were seen approaching on a motorcycle. When the police attempted to stop them, as they were travelling from the direction of Sajwan Nagar toward a society, the pair tried to turn around and flee, an official said. Due to the uneven terrain, they lost their balance and fell; upon seeing the police party approaching, they opened fire. In the ensuing retaliatory fire, carried out by the police in self-defence, both suspects were struck in the legs, he added. The accused have been identified as 48-year-old Mustakim, a resident of Chaman Colony, and 40-year-old Pradeep, a resident of Siddharth Vihar, according to the police. Authorities recovered two illegal country-made firearms, two live cartridges, a motorcycle without a number plate, and two mobile phones from their possession. Both individuals have been transported to a hospital. The situation at the scene remains calm and under control, and further legal proceedings are currently underway, police said. In a separate incident earlier on October 17, Raj alias Rajendra Pandey, a 22-year-old wanted robber carrying a Rs 10,000 reward, was arrested after a police encounter near the Kilhouda Border in Ghaziabad's Bhojpur area. According to the officials, the accused tried to flee on a bike when signalled to stop, causing the bike to slip. He opened fire at the police team using a country-made pistol. Police fired back in self-defence, injuring him in the leg, officials said. A 315-bore illegal pistol, a live cartridge, a spent shell, a stolen motorcycle, and a looted mobile phone were recovered from the accused.

Family offices bet Rs 2,000 cr on temple hotels
Mumbai: Family offices are investing in hospitality assets around major pilgrimage centres across India, from Deoghar and Mathura to Saurashtra and Udupi, opening a new frontier for the domestic hotel industry. From a Mumbai family office acquiring a nearly completed upscale hotel in Udupi to RR Kabel's investment in Salasar Balaji, family capital is flowing into branded hotels around India's biggest pilgrimage centres.Nearly Rs 2,000 crore has been committed across key religious destinations over the past 12-18 months, according to Noesis Hotel Advisors, as some of India's wealthiest business families turn their conviction in these destinations into a hospitality investment play.Also Read: Lemon Tree Hotels announces signing of MoU with Omaxe for operating 4,000 keysThe Udupi acquisition involves a nearly completed 137-room upscale hotel that will operate under a premium brand of Indian Hotels Company (IHCL). In Salasar Balaji, a family office is developing a 108-room property, while ITC Hotels has signed a 145-room Welcomhotel project on a six-acre site near the temple.135018616In Khatu Shyamji, Royal Orchid Hotels has signed a 120-room hotel with the Agarwal family, around 2 km from the temple.The deals signal a shift from traditional dharamshalas and independent lodgings towards branded, professionally managed hotels. IHCL, ITC Hotels, Sarovar Hotels and Radisson are among the operators expanding across religious markets.For Mahendra Kabra, managing director at RR Kabel, the investment in Salasar Balaji is driven by personal faith as well as commercial conviction.Also Read: Protests, traffic curbs in Delhi hit hotel businessResilience of Religious TravelI am a big believer in Salasar Balaji and go there every year. Instead of having a dharamshala there, I thought it would be better to invest in a hospitality asset in Salasar Balaji, he said. The hotel will be managed by Sarovar Hotels.The appeal for investors lies in the relative resilience of religious travel. A metro hotel lives and dies by corporate cycles; a pilgrimage hotel draws guests in good years and bad years alike, a representative of a Mumbai-based family office that recently invested in the segment said on condition of anonymity.Faith is India's most reliable demand generator, said Ajay Bakaya, chairman of Sarovar Hotels, an early entrant in several religious destinations. Occupancy is strong in these markets, according to him, particularly for mid-tier properties with 80-100 rooms. A lot of family offices also see development potential in investing in properties in such religious locations, he said.Much of the capital comes from regional trading, industrial and real estate families in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. Individual investments range from 60 crore for a midscale hotel to 150 crore or more for an upscale asset, according to Noesis Hotel Advisors.This is not speculative money. These are families who have watched pilgrim footfall in their own towns double in a decade and are now converting that conviction into branded, institutional-grade assets, said Nandivardhan Jain, founder and CEO of Noesis Hotel Advisors, which has advised on some of the deals. The capital is patient, it is local and it is backed by land the family already owns. That combination makes it one of the most stable sources of hotel equity in India today. Jain cautioned, though, that resilient demand and family-owned land do not guarantee a viable hotel. A temple is not a feasibility study, he said.Better roads, airports, expressways, and pilgrimage corridors are turning day-trip destinations into overnight stops, improving the economics of branded hospitality. For hotel chains looking beyond saturated urban markets, temple towns offer a growing pool of demand and relatively limited branded supply. For family offices, experts say the bet is on faith-an enduring reason to travel.

UP: Complainant turns out to be mastermind behind fake Rs 10 lakh robbery in Saharanpur
Digital Desk | Saharanpur, Oct 17 (IANS) In a sensational twist, police in Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur district have claimed to have solved a Rs 10 lakh robbery, with the complainant himself emerging as the alleged mastermind behind the incident. The police said the robbery was fabricated to deal with a massive debt, and the entire amount allegedly looted was recovered from the complainant's vehicle. The incident took place on Saturday around 11.20 a.m. near a country liquor shop on the Gandewad-Raipur road under the Behat police station area. The police received information that four unidentified men had allegedly intercepted a car, pelted it with stones, assaulted its driver, Deepak Saini, at gunpoint and fled with Rs 10.10 lakh. Following the information received through the emergency helpline 112, the Behat police station team immediately swung into action. Superintendent of Police (Rural) Mayank Pathak, along with other police officials and the Special Operations Group (SOG), reached the spot and launched an investigation. During preliminary questioning, however, the police found discrepancies in the robbery complaint and decided to investigate the matter more deeply. According to SP Rural Mayank Pathak, Deepak Saini operated a private ATM service. During the investigation, the police discovered that the entire amount reported to have been looted was lying inside his own vehicle. On being questioned, Saini allegedly admitted that he was burdened with a debt of around Rs 10 lakh and had hatched the conspiracy to stage a fake robbery. Pathak said the complainant allegedly made a false emergency call to the police, claiming that he had been robbed by four armed men. Acting on the information, the police initially registered a case and began taking necessary action. However, the recovery of the cash from the vehicle exposed the alleged conspiracy. The police have taken action against the accused for allegedly staging the robbery and misleading law enforcement authorities.
