  • Court dismisses charges against burkha-clad women arrested in jewellery swap case

    Court dismisses charges against burkha-clad women arrested in jewellery swap case

    A city magistrate court has held that two women who were arrested “merely on suspicion” cannot be considered the accused in a case where burkha-clad individuals were seen swapping gold jewellery with lighter ones in CCTV footage of a jewellery store while posing as customers.

    Lack of Convincing Evidence

    The complaint was filed by Deepak Rathod, the owner of the store in Mazgaon, against Sana Shaikh, 39, and her relative Sadaf Shaikh, 40. During his testimony, Rathod expressed his suspicion towards the women, stating that they had been visiting his store for 1.5 years. On October 24, 2020, he claimed that the women had visited the store to view finger rings for men and women.
    After discovering that a 9.4-gram ring had been replaced with one weighing 1.4 grams, Rathod reviewed the CCTV footage, which revealed the women exchanging the rings. Additionally, upon rechecking the stocks, he found a cumulative difference in the weight of gold ornaments by 1.76 grams.

    Lack of Witness Identification and Investigation Testimony

    The court, in its judgment, highlighted the prosecution’s reliance on only two witnesses—the store owner and his employee, with the latter testifying in favor of the owner due to their professional relationship. The court noted that both witnesses failed to positively identify the accused women from the CCTV footage, as the faces of the burkha-clad individuals were covered. Metropolitan Magistrate PI Mokashi stated in the order that the arrest was made “merely on suspicion.”

    Insufficient Evidence and Reasonable Doubt

    The court further criticized the prosecution for failing to present the investigating officer as a witness, who could have provided essential insights from the investigation. Consequently, the court ruled that the case had not been proven beyond reasonable doubt.

    Excise case: Court to consider supplementary charge sheet on May 19

    NEW DELHI: A Delhi court on Wednesday adjourned to May 19 hearing on consideration of Enforcement Directorate (ED)’s supplementary charge filed against AAP leader and former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in connection with the Delhi excise policy case.

    On May 6, the probe agency had informed the Special Judge M.K. Nagpal of Rouse Avenue Court that proceeds of a crime worth Rs 622 crore was generated due to the activities of the accused as excise minister. ,The ED has alleged that Sisodia was the mastermind behind the entire excise policy case and that he had deliberately leaked the policy to the co-accused to generate financial kickbacks.

    Sisodia is currently in judicial custody. On Monday, Judge Nagpal extended Sisodia’s judicial custody till May 23. The ED had arrested Sisodia on March 9 after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested him on February 26 this year.

    Last month, Special CBI Judge M. K. Nagpal of Rouse Avenue Court had denied bail to Sisodia, holding that the evidence, prima facie, “speaks volumes” of his involvement in the offence.

    Last week, High Court judge Dinesh Kumar Sharma sought the ED’s response to Sisodia’s bail plea and another application seeking interim bail on the ground of his wife’s ill-health and listed the matter for further consideration on May 11. In the case being probed by the CBI, Delhi court extended Sisodia’s judicial custody till May 12.

  • Suspect Involved In Bombing At St. Petersburg Cafe That Killed Military Blogger To Face Court

    Suspect Involved In Bombing At St. Petersburg Cafe That Killed Military Blogger To Face Court

    A woman suspected of involvement in a bombing at a St. Petersburg cafe that killed a Russian military blogger is set to face a court hearing in the Russian capital Tuesday that will set terms for her pre-trial detention.

    Vladlen Tatarsky, 40, an ardent supporter of the war in Ukraine who filed daily reports on the fighting from the front lines, was killed Sunday as he led a discussion at the riverside cafe in the historic heart of St. Petersburg, Russia’s second-largest city. Russian authorities described the bombing as an act of terrorism and blamed Ukrainian intelligence agencies for orchestrating the attack.

    Police arrested 26-year-old St. Petersburg resident Darya Trepova, who was seen on video moments before the blast presenting Tatarsky with a statuette that is believed to have contained explosives.

    The Interior Ministry released a video in which Trepova told a police officer that she brought the bust to the cafe. When asked who gave it to her, she said she would explain later. The circumstances under which Trepova spoke were unclear, including whether she was under duress.

    The National Anti-Terrorist Committee, which coordinates counterterrorism operations, said the bombing was “planned by Ukrainian special services,” noting Trepova was an “active supporter” of imprisoned Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Last year, Trepova was arrested and spent 10 days in custody after taking part in an anti-war rally.

    Ukrainian authorities did not directly respond to the accusation, but President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in reference to the attack that he doesn’t think about events in Russia, and his top adviser described the bombing as part of Russia’s internal turmoil.

    While Trepova was arrested in St. Petersburg, her case was sent to Moscow, where the headquarters of the country’s top investigative agencies are located, in an apparent reflection of its high priority. Trepova will face a hearing Tuesday at Moscow’s Basmanny District Court that is expected to order her to be held in custody pending the investigation. Russian law envisions a life sentence for terrorist crimes.

  • Court told CBI: Please accept, teachers cannot investigate scam in time

    Court told CBI: Please accept, teachers cannot investigate scam in time

    Kolkata (IANS) | A special CBI court here on Thursday pulled up the agency team probing the multi-crore scam in the recruitment of teaching and non-teaching staff in West Bengal for slow pace of investigation. The special court judge asked the Central Bureau of Investigation officials to accept if they could not probe the matter in time.

    Hearing the bail plea of former education minister and Trinamool Congress general secretary Partha Chatterjee, the judge on Thursday told the central agency officials and his lawyer, “You better go to the Calcutta High Court and inform them that the investigation is beyond your purview.” It’s a matter of. It seems that the investigation is beyond your capability.”

    The judge also asked the agency to fix a time frame for completing the probe process. The reply of the CBI counsel that the investigation process was getting delayed in view of the involvement of a large number of people in the scam further irked the judge.

    The judge said, “How long will you keep playing the same record? The investigation process has to be completed, even if the involvement is in thousands.”

    Moving the bail plea on behalf of Chatterjee, his counsel argued that the CBI is projecting his client as the mastermind of the scam despite his name not being mentioned in the FIR. “The central probe agency should explain why they are projecting my client as the mastermind,” argued the lawyer.

    Ultimately, however, despite pulling up the CBI, the judge rejected Chatterjee’s bail plea and extended his judicial custody till April 14.
