Part 1









Part 2







The Inside Story

RANCHI: In a story straight from a B-grade Bollywood potboiler, Arun Yadav (36) avenged his father's murder 22 years later by killing Bhola Oraon (45), the mukhiya (head) of Balshokra village in Chanho area. Oraon was accused of killing his father in 1992.



Police arrested Arun Yadav in a late Sunday night raid in Chanho village, eight days after he allegedly shot Oraon and stabbed him in a deserted area.

Khelari DSP Radha Prem Kishore said the accused claimed that he killed Oraon to avenge his father's death in 1992, when Yadav was just 14 years old.



About 23 people were accused of his father's murder. Oraon was one of the co-accused in the case and was also jailed in this connection. He, however, came out on bail later, said a police officer. "It is surprising to know that a man has taken revenge for the murder of his father 22 years later," said Kishore.



The mukhiya had gone to a marketplace in the evening on February 9. He did not return home as expected. A local informed his family members that his bike was lying abandoned near a road in Chanho. Soon the mukhiya's body was spotted by the local people.



The incident sparked widespread agitations in Chanho area. Locals blocked the Ranchi-Chanho highway in protest against the murder and kept the policemen on their toes. The road was blocked from morning till evening the next day (February 10). The locals were pacified only after hours of negotiations with policemen.



Kishore said, Yadav killed the mukhiya with the help of two of his aides. "We are conducting raids to arrest the two other accused. We will find them out soon," said Ranchi rural SP S K Jha.



Meanwhile, a 65-year-old woman was beaten to death by her cousin in Chanho area on Sunday night. The matter was brought to police on Monday morning after which the accused was arrested and a baton used to beat his aunt to death was seized. "It appears to be a matter of family feud over property. The investigation is going on," said Kishore.

Crime Patrol: Preeti Rathi case: Bandra acid attacker had confessed to cousin, police says (Episode 347, 348 on 14, 15 March 2014)

Part 1

Part 2

The Inside Story

MUMBAI: "Maine Bambai me ek ladki par acid feka kar jala diya hai. (I threw acid and burnt a girl in Mumbai)", Ankur Panwar (23), the accused in the Preeti Rathi acid attack case, reportedly told his cousin Ravi.



Ravi, who runs a garage in Gurgaon, told the police that after throwing acid at Preeti on May 2, 2013, Ankur returned to Delhi, but instead to going to his house, he came to meet him. Ravi claimed that after confessing to the crime, Ankur kept quiet for a long time. When Ravi questioned Ankur further, he told him he had lied and started laughing.



Ravi's statement is part of the 1,322-page chargesheet filed before the 37th metropolitan magistrate on Wednesday. In the chargesheet, the police said Ankur threw acid at Preeti, his neighbour from Narela near Delhi, because of jealousy and unrequited love.



The police have also annexed Ankur's mobile phone records and Preeti's medical reports, including the post-mortem, and the forensic report of the acid used in the crime.



The Mumbai crime branch has made Ravi a key witness in the case, and booked Ankur under IPC sections 302 (murder), 326-A (voluntarily causing grievous hurt by use of acid), 326-B (voluntarily throwing or attempting to throw acid). On May 2, 2013, as Preeti, her father, uncle and aunt got off at Bandra Terminus, a masked man threw acid at her. Preeti was to join the Army Medical College in Colaba as a nurse.



On January 17, 2014, the crime branch arrested Ankur. Ankur's mother, Kailashrani had said, "When the police brought him home on January 21, Ankur told me that he had thrown the acid on Preeti."



Preeti's aunt and uncle —Sunita and Vinod Dahiya—are also witnesses in the case.

Crime Patrol: 'Missing' Marathi actress back with beau (Episode 345, 346 on 7th, 8th March 2014)

The inside story

Marathi actress Alka Punewar, who was found in Chennai with her alleged boyfriend Alok Paliwal, was brought back by a team of Thane police on Wednesday. The police said no case has been registered against the duo.



Punewar had disappeared on December 27 after her husband saw her off near Kopri.

“We got their custody from the Chennai police and brought them to Thane,” said an officer from Kopri police station.



Talking to media persons, the 44-year-old actress and a mother of two children said that she had stage-managed the whole episode because she did not want her children to suffer the ignominy of their mother running away with a younger person. She added that she eloped because she was fed up with her husband.



A police source said it was the calls that were made to Sanjay Sonkar, a common friend of Alka and Alok, 29, that nailed them. During investigations, Alka’s husband Sanjay had revealed about a third SIM card that Alka was using. When the police checked this number, they found that both Alka and Alok were constantly in touch with Sonkar. The police picked up Sonkar from his Panvel residence and he spilled the beans. “Last week, Alka texted Sonkar from a new number and we tracked down the location to Chennai,” said the source.



On December 27, Alka went missing and after a day her car was found in Khopoli valley.



Her mobile phone was found around 100 metres away from the car.



In true filmy style, they staged her kidnap/missing drama. They bought a Maruti 800 car for Rs25,000 and threw it in the Khopoli valley so that it would look like an accident or kidnap.

Crime Patrol: Haryana: Father kills teen daughter for refusing to stay with 50-yr-old husband (Episode 344 on 1st March 2014)

The Inside Story

Kaithal: From female foeticide to rape to girls forced into unwanted marriages, incidents that have come to the fore seem to show that India just cannot save its women.



A recent one in Haryana reiterates the same.



In the state's Kasaan village in Kaithal, a 17-year-old girl was killed by none other than her own father. Her offence? She did not want to live with a 50-year-old man, whom she was forced to marry.



The remorseless father went on record to say that pride is larger than life. "We know that our pride is larger than life," Indra Singh said.

The girl had apparently gone to the police station to ask for protection but the Panchayat intervened and brought her back.



Before anybody could do anything, the girl was murdered.



The village Panchayat, however, claims that the marriage took place in harmony. "We had only decided that they should come on the 4th and then we will explain to her. The girl denied everything. We have her marriage photos. I was involved in the alliance. Although the girl had initially disagreed but later had changed her mind and the marriage took place in harmony. The panchayat has been insulted," said the Sarpanch.



The police intervened only when the girl was about to be cremated.



"The body of the girl was lying in her house when we went to file the report. We came to know it was a murder case. We have registered a case and investigations are on. The mamaji has given a statement saying that she was married to man much older. She was not interested in the marriage. We are checking facts," said Simardeep Singh, Superintendent of Police, Kaithal.



The girl's father and uncle have surrendered.
