    Police crack murder case after 20 years, arrest victim’s evasive friend from Thane

    Mumbai: The Santa Cruz police on Saturday claimed to have solved a murder case registered 20 years ago.

Both had come to Mumbai to make textile purchases. At night they had an argument following which Rai allegedly stabbed Rathod several times with a knife found in the hotel room, covered him with a bedsheet and fled after taking the victim’s bag containing ₹1,30,000 in cash. Around 10 a.m. when a housekeeping attendant Dinkar Shetty knocked on the room there was no response. He then opened the room with a masterkey and found Rathod lying on a pool of blood on the bed.

    12 failed attempts to nab culprit by police

    The only clue the police had was that the suspect was from Muzaffarnagar in Bihar. Different police teams visited Muzaffarnagar as many as 12 times, but returned empty handed. The police then made an application to the court to close the case.
    Assistant Police Inspector Tushar Sawant and the crime detection unit of the Santa Cruz police recently received confidential information from their sources about the wanted accused. The team went to Muzaffarnagar and made discreet inquiries following which it came to know that the suspect was working in a sweet shop at Majiwada, Thane, from where he was picked up. During interrogation the accused reportedly confessed to the murder.

    He is now remanded to police custody. During the past 20 years he lived under assumed names in different states doing odd jobs.
    Chaudhary and Additional Police Commissioner (west region) Paramjit Singh Dahiya felicitated Sawant and his team for the excellent detection.

    New Delhi (IANS): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Thursday said that they have filed a supplementary charge sheet against two more accused in connection with the 2022 murder case of BJP Yuva Morcha leader leader Praveen Nettaru in Karnataka.

    One of the two accused named in the charge sheet, identified as Thufail M.H., who had been absconding, was tracked down and arrested by an NIA team in Bengaluru.

    Nettaru was murdered in full public view by members of the now banned Popular Front of India (PFI) “with the intention to strike terror in the society and create fear among the people”, according to the probe agency.

    The initial chargesheet was filed by the NIA on January 20 this year.

    The central probe agency had then stated that the PFI had formed secret ‘hit squads’, ‘Service Teams’ or ‘Killer Squads’ to carry out the killing of its ‘perceived enemies and targets.’

    NIA investigations also revealed that Thufail, a resident of Kodagu, was in-Charge of the PFI Service Teams in the district and also a ‘PFI Master Trainer’ who would regularly impart advanced training, including arms training to the banned outfit’s cadres at the Freedom Community Hall, in neighbouring Dakshina Kannada.

    He had harboured the three assailants in the murder case in Kodagu and Mysuru districts of Karnataka and in Erode district of Tamil Nadu, as per investigations by the NIA.

    Meanwhile, Jabir was the PFI Puttur District President and had actively participated in the conspiracy meeting where it was decided to recce and murder Nettaru.

    Further investigations into the case, which was initially registered as FIR number 63/2022 dated July 27, 2022 at Bellare Police Station of Dakshina Kannada district and re-registered by the NIA on August 4, 2022, are continuing.

    Mukhtar Ansari convicted in kidnapping, murder case, gets 10-year jail term

    The Ghazipur’s MP-MLA court in Uttar Pradesh on Saturday convicted jailed gangster-turned-politician Mukhtar Ansari in a kidnapping and murder case of Bharatiya Janata MLA Krishnanand Rai and sentenced him to 10 years imprisonment. The court also imposed a fine of ₹5 lakh on Ansari.

    The court reserved its verdict on Mukhtar Ansari’s elder brother and BSP MP Afzal Ansari, who is an accused in the case.

    Earlier on Saturday, the window of Rai, who was murdered in Ghazipur in 2005 allegedly by Ansari and Afzal Ansari, said that the rule of mafia has ended in Uttar Pradesh and that she has faith in the judiciary.

    “I believe in the judiciary. Rule of Goondas, Mafias have ended (in the state),” Alka Rai said.

    In January, the police had registered a murder case against Mukhtar Ansari in connection to the 2001 ‘Usri Chatti’ gang war incident. A case under section 302 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) was registered against Ansari at Police Station Mohammadabad in Ghazipur.

    On January 18, Allahabad high court dismissed the March 15 order of the Ghazipur MP-MLA Court, which allowed Ansari to be kept in a superior-class jail in Banda.

    In December last year, Ansari and his aide Bhim Singh were sentenced to 10 years imprisonment by the Gangster Court in Ghazipur in five cases related to murder and attempt to murder.

    The cases include the murder of constable Raghuvansh Singh and a murderous assault on an additional SP of Ghazipur among others.

    On September 21, the Lucknow bench of the Allahabad high court convicted Ansari and sentenced him for threatening jailer SK Awasthi and pointing a pistol at him. The case dates to 2003 when Lucknow district prison jailer SK Awasthi lodged an FIR saying that he was threatened to order a search of the people who came to meet Ansari in prison.
