Five accused convicted in 2016 Bulandshahr gang rape case

Nearly a decade after a horrific crime that shook the nation, the city court at Bulandshahr in Uttar Pradesh convicted all five accused in the Bulandshahr gang rape case on Saturday. The case had sparked nationwide outrage in 2016. The Special Judge POCSO Case, Bulandshahr, has held all five accused identified as Juber, Sajid, Dharamvir, Naresh and Sunil Kumar guilty in the gang rape case. After the conclusion of the trial, the court found the accused persons guilty and will pronounce the sentence on December 22. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) registered the case in compliance with an order of the High Court of Allahabad whereby the probe in the case was transferred from Kotwali Dehat Police Station of Bulandshahr to the federal agency. The case pertains to a heinous incident involving rape, dacoity, wrongful confinement and penetrative sexual assault on a child. As per allegations, a group of five to six armed assailants forcibly took a family of six at gunpoint, looted cash and jewellery and subsequently held them captive in adjoining fields. The incident had taken place when six members of a Noida-based family were travelling to Shahjahanpur in UP. At the national highway passing through Bulandshahr, their car was stopped by criminals at Dostpur village. The assailants dragged the 13-year-old girl and her mother out and raped them in a field nearby. The victims and their entire family members identified the accused after they were shown around 50 photographs of criminals in the various areas in the area. The incident evoked a huge outcry and received widespread criticism over the law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh. The National Commission for Women also slammed the UP police for negligence and apathy to the point that there were mistakes even in the preparation of the FIR. After completion of the investigation, CBI filed a charge-sheet on November 5, 2016, against three accused persons before the Court of the Additional. District and Sessions Judge-cum-Special Judge (POCSO Cases), Bulandshahr. Subsequently, a supplementary charge-sheet was filed on April 18, 2018, against three additional accused persons. During the pendency of the trial, one accused expired in judicial custody.

SCBA seeks apology from Bihar CM Nitish Kumar over attempt to pull down woman doctors hijab

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) on Monday expressed its strongest condemnation of the actions of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for attempting to forcibly pull down the hijab of a woman doctor during a public ceremony held in Patna on December 15, 2025. In a statement, the President and Executive Committee of the SCBA described the incident as a grave infringement of a womans personal dignity and autonomy. The association said the alleged act, carried out by a person holding a constitutional office, was deeply disturbing and unacceptable. The SCBA also condemned the remarks made by Union Minister Giriraj Singh and Uttar Pradesh Minister Sanjay Nishad in connection with the incident, stating that such comments were derogatory and undermined the dignity of women. It is shocking that a person holding such a high office should attempt to demean the dignity and autonomy of the woman and tried to pull down her head scarf. Besides infringing her autonomy, agency and religious freedom of the young doctor, it is reflection of the depraving attitude against women in general. It is an affront to the principles of equality and non-discrimination enshrined in the Constitution of India, the SCBA said. The association demanded an unconditional apology from those involved and reiterated its commitment to upholding constitutional values. We reaffirm our commitment to the protection of individual rights and the rule of law, the SCBA further said.

Mayawati flags Bihar 'naqab' row; says CM Nitish should express regret, end controversy

LUCKNOW: Wading into the Nitish Kumar 'naqab' controversy, BSP supremo Mayawati on Saturday raised concerns over the Bihar chief minister recently pulling off the veil from a woman doctor's face , saying the JD-U chief should express regret and make effort to end the itterly growing controversy. The former Uttar Pradesh chief minister also flagged concerns over a controversial police parade incident in Bahraich, which she described as a failure of legislative sessions in the state and Parliament. In a long Hindi post on X, Mayawati said the 'naqqab' controversy was sad and unfortunate, which continued to escalate due to some statements made by ministers subsequently. The incident, a video clip of which has been circulated widely, took place on Monday at the chief minister's secretariat in Patna, where Ayush doctors gathered to receive their letters of appointment. When the woman came up for her letter, Kumar saw her 'naqab', said what is this and then removed the veil, prompting the opposition parties to demand an unconditional apology from the chief minister. Mayawati said the matter, which is linked to women's safety and dignity, should have been resolved through the chief minister's direct intervention. It would be better if the chief minister views the incident in the right perspective, expresses regret and makes an effort to end this bitterly growing controversy, she said. Referring to Uttar Pradesh, Mayawati said the Bahraich district police, drawing criticism for deviating from the established rules by offering a salute to a religious preacher during a police parade, triggered a major controversy, putting the state government in the dock. Police parades and salutes have their own traditions, discipline and sanctity, which should not be tampered with, she said, adding that it was a positive step that the state's police chief sought an explanation from the district police chief. People are now waiting for action, she said, urging the state government to take the matter seriously to prevent a recurrence. Mayawati also criticised the rief Winter Session of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly, which began on December 19, saying it had, like previous sessions, been confined to debates between the ruling party and the opposition instead of focusing on issues of public interest and welfare. She said the government should have responded more seriously to matters such as fertiliser shortages faced by the farmers and other public welfare concerns. The BSP chief also took a swipe at the Winter Session of Parliament, which concluded on Friday, alleging that it ended without any meaningful discussions on the pressing national issues, including the severe air pollution in Delhi. The entire country was hoping for deliberations on the burning national problems that could have offered some ray of hope but that did not happen, which is unfortunate, she said. Mayawati also expressed concern over the rapidly deteriorating situation in Bangladesh and what she termed a rise in anti-India activities, similar to Nepal. She urged the Centre to take cognisance of the developments and respond with a long-term policy approach. Bangladesh has been on the boil this week after the killing of Sharif Osman Hadi, a prominent youth leader of the July Uprising of 2024, sparking violent protests and arson in the neighbouring country.

UP Police conduct verification drive in Muzaffarnagar riots victims colony to identify illegal immigants

MUZAFFARNAGAR: Muzaffarnagar (UP), Dec 20 (PTI) Police have carried out door-to-door verification in a Muzaffarnagar riots victims' colony in Kairana town of Shamli district as part of a drive to identify illegal immigrants, officials said on Saturday. The verification exercise was conducted Friday in Nahid Colony, where around 300 families displaced during the 2013 Muzaffarnagar riots from villages such as Lank, Bahawdi and Phugana were resettled, police said. During the exercise, police checked Aadhaar cards, mobile numbers and family details of residents. Circle Officer (Kairana) Hemant Kumar told reporters that the verification was aimed at identifying any illegal Rohingya or Bangladeshi nationals, but no such person had been found so far. A resident of the colony, Noor Hasan, said all families living there had already filled out their Special Intensive Revision (SIR) forms and submitted them to the booth level officer (BLO) in Kairana. Meanwhile, police in neighbouring Muzaffarnagar district have also intensified verification in industrial areas, focusing on labourers working in factories, officials said. Circle Officer Siddharth Mishra said police teams checked records of workers at several paper mills and steel factories in the district. Factory owners have been directed to maintain registers containing complete details of their workers, he added. The verification drives are part of a broader exercise to ensure proper documentation and to identify any illegal immigrants, police said. In 2013 Muzaffarnagar in western Uttar Pradesh witnessed a series of communal clashes that left over 60 people dead and displaced thousands, largely from rural areas of the district.
