10.5 tonnes of valued Khair wood seized by Thane police, driver arrested on suspicion of smuggling. Investigation into a broader network initiated.

Thane police seized 10.5 tonnes of Khair wood valued at ₹31.72 lakh, arresting the truck driver Anilkumar Gupta. A larger smuggling operation is suspected.

Police seized 10.5 tonnes of khair wood, valued at Rs 31 lakh, from a truck in Thane and arrested its driver, a crime branch official said on Wednesday.

Acting on a tip-off, police intercepted a truck near Nitin Naka in Panchpakhadi area around 1 AM on June 17 and seized Khair wood logs, senior police inspector Salil Bhosale said.
"The market value of the wood is estimated at Rs 31,72,500. In addition, police also seized the truck used in transportation, valued at Rs 10 lakh," he said.
Police arrested the truck driver, identified as Anilkumar Gupta (54), a resident of Dhule, under section 303(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and relevant sections of the Indian Forest Act.
Police suspect a larger smuggling network could be involved, and further inquiries are underway.

Punjab Police dismantle a drug cartel linked to Arshdeep Singh, arrest six, seizing heroin and cash.

In a major breakthrough amidst the ongoing drive to make Punjab a drug-free state as per the directions of Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann, Commissionerate Police Amritsar has dismantled a well-organized Narco-Hawala cartel being operated by Arshdeep Singh, currently incarcerated at Goindwal Jail, with the arrest of its six operatives and recovering 4.526 kg of heroin and ₹8.7 lakh drug money from their possession, said Director General of Police (DGP) Punjab Gaurav Yadav here on Tuesday.
Those arrested have been identified as Karandeep Singh alias Karan (25), a resident of Algon Khurd in Tarn Taran, Jaspreet Singh (20), a resident of Salodi in Ludhiana, Arshdeep Singh alias Ars (22), a resident of Mehndipur in Tarn Taran, Gurmeet Singh alias Geetu (24), a resident of Sukhera Bodla in Fazilka, Rajinderpal Singh alias Nikka (24), a resident of Kolowal in Amritsar and Malkeet Singh (28), a resident of Hawelian in Tarn Taran.
DGP Gaurav Yadav said that preliminary investigation has revealed that Arshdeep, in connivance with his associates Jaspreet and Karan, has been orchestrating the drug trade and hawala transactions. Karan, along with Gurmeet and Rajinderpal, were retrieving cross-border consignments and distributing them across various districts of Punjab, he said.
He said that the probe has further revealed that the proceeds from the narcotics trade were laundered via hawala channels by Jaspreet, which were routed to Dubai, UAE and subsequently to Pakistan. The mobile phone used by Arshdeep within the jail has been recovered, providing crucial evidence of their cross-border operations, he said.
The DGP said that said that further investigations are ongoing to establish backward and forward linkages in this case.
Sharing more details, Commissioner of Police (CP) Amritsar Gurpreet Singh Bhullar said that Arshdeep Singh has been lodged in the jail in a commercial NDPS case. Despite incarceration, he maintained contact with cross-border smugglers, he said.
He said that one of the arrested accused identified as Malkeet Singh, who has been arrested separately, is a notorious smuggler and had spent a year in Dubai, where he established links with Pakistani smugglers. Given his village's proximity to the international border, the accused has facilitated the smuggling of consignments directly to his residence upon his return to India two months ago, he added.
The CP said that Police teams led by DCP Ravinderpal Singh and ADCP Jagbinder Singh executed the operation based on intelligence inputs. Apart from recovering heroin and drug money, police teams have also impounded their Hero Splendor motorcycle, which they were using to deliver the consignments, he said.
Further investigations are underway to unravel the network&rsquo;s domestic and international linkages. More arrests and recoveries expected in coming days, he added.
In this regard, two separate case FIRs have been registered under relevant sections of the NDPS Act.

Delhi Police arrest Five in hypnosis scam heist cases

Delhi Police apprehended five individuals for using hypnosis to steal valuables in two cases in outer Delhi. The suspects included a minor. They targeted women, swapping gold for waste paper.

Delhi Police apprehended five people, including a minor, acting on two separate complaints that they "hypnotised" and duped people of valuables in outer Delhi's Ranhola area, an official said on Thursday.
In the first case reported on May 15, a woman alleged that she was hypnotised by three people, two men and a woman, who took her gold earrings and gave her a bundle that appeared to be cash but turned out to be waste paper.
Police raided D Block in Sultanpuri and apprehended a man and his wife. During interrogation, they confessed to the crime and named a third associate who is currently absconding, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Outer) Sachin Sharma said.
In the second case reported on May 16, another woman lodged a similar complaint.
After receiving a tip-off about the presence of some suspects near Chander Vihar, police conducted a raid and arrested three people -- a man, his wife and a minor.
They, too, claimed to have duped the complainant using hypnosis, the DCP said.
Given the striking similarity between the two incidents, a police team investigated both cases, the DCP said.

Punjab Police dismantles an ISI-supported terror module in Batala

Batala Police dismantled an ISI-supported terror module, arresting six after a failed grenade attack. Orders came from overseas; Punjab boosts security.

In a major breakthrough amidst the ongoing drive to make Punjab a safe and secure state as per the directions of Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann, Batala Police has busted a Pak-ISI-backed Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) terror module&mdash; being operated by foreign-based handlers Maninder Billa and Mannu Agwan on the directions of terrorist Harwinder Singh Rinda&mdash; with the arrest of its six members involved in an attempted grenade attack outside a liquor vend in Batala, said Director General of Police (DGP) Punjab Gaurav Yadav here on Tuesday.
As per the information, some unidentified bike-borne youth had lobbed a hand grenade outside a liquor vend in the Focal Point area of Batala on May 17, 2025, which failed to explode due to faulty assembly, preventing any untoward incident.
Those arrested have been identified as Jatin Kumar, alias Rohan, Barinder Singh alias Sajan, Abraham alias Rohit and Sunil Kumar, all residents of Shukarpura in Batala; Rahul Masih of Harnam Nagar of Batala and Sohit of Qila Des Raj of Batala. Police teams have also recovered one .30 bore pistol from their possession.
DGP Gaurav Yadav said that the arrested accused persons were receiving direct instructions from Portugal-based Maninder Billa and BKI mastermind Mannu Agwan, who has recently assumed operational charge after the arrest of Happy Passian in the USA.
He said that preliminary investigation has revealed that the module had been directed by its foreign handlers to lob a grenade at any liquor vendor with the intent to spread fear among contractors, thereby creating a conducive environment for extortion demands. Further investigations are ongoing to establish forward and backward linkages in this case, said the DGP.
Sharing operation details, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Batala Suhail Qasim Mir said that following the incident of attempted grenade attack, multiple police teams were tasked to investigate using technical and human intelligence inputs. In a record time, six accused involved in lobbing, logistics and finances were traced and arrested, he added.
The SSP said that during the operation, arrested accused Jatin Kumar alias Rohan, who is the main executor of the attack, sustained bullet injuries in an exchange of fire with police while being taken for recovery of weapon. In bid to escape, the accused opened fire at police team and injured retaliatory fire, he said, while adding that accused Jatin has been admitted at the local Civil Hospital for medical treatment.
He said that probe has found that the grenade had been assembled by the accused based on instructions received via a video call from Maninder Billa and another unknown individual, without any technical knowledge. Due to this, the assembly was faulty and led to the grenade not detonating, he added.
A case FIR No 148 dated May 17, 2025 has already been registered under sections 4 and 5 of the Explosive Substances Act at Police Station Civil Lines in Batala, while, sections 111 and 61(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and sections 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 18-B, and 20 of Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) have been added.

19 Police Injured in Kolkata Teacher Protests

19 police personnel injured during teacher protests at Bikash Bhavan. The demonstration seeks reinstatement of jobs wiped out by a Supreme Court ruling citing recruitment irregularities. Minimum police force was employed to ensure safe evacuation.

Police in Kolkata faced violent clashes with teachers

19 police personnel injured in clashes with teachers at Bikash Bhavan. Police acted for safe evacuation, not protest suppression. Teachers demand reinstatement after SC ruling voided 25,753 jobs.

West Bengal Police on Friday said 19 of its personnel were injured, one of them seriously, during clashes with agitating school teachers outside the state education department headquarters in Salt Lake here, and a suo motu case had been lodged against persons identified as instigators of the unrest.
Talking to reporters, ADG (Law and Order) Jawed Shamim and IG South Bengal Supratim Sarkar said police had exercised maximum restraint for over seven hours on Thursday evening before taking action to assist government employees "trapped inside" Bikash Bhavan, the state education department headquarters.
"Nineteen policemen were injured, and one is serious. We have videos and evidence against those who instigated the agitation yesterday. We will take legal action against them," Sarkar said at Bhawani Bhavan, the West Bengal Police Headquarters.
He clarified that police intervention was solely to ensure the safe exit for government employees from the building, not to suppress the protest.
"The whole police action was only done to ensure that the government employees trapped inside Bikash Bhavan could come out and return home after an entire day&rsquo;s work. We have no intention to stop, alter, or disrupt the protest," Sarkar added.
ADG Shamim said, "Despite all the provocations &mdash; damaging government property, occupying premises &mdash; police exercised maximum restraint, respecting the emotions of the agitators," he said.
"We spoke to the agitators&rsquo; leadership and repeatedly requested them to allow the trapped employees to leave. There was even a pregnant woman inside. The employees were calling police in distress." As police attempted to assist those stuck inside, they were reportedly pelted with stones and plastic bottles, leading to a standoff.
"In that standoff, minimum force was used, and we ensured that those trapped inside were safely evacuated," he said, adding that there were 58 other departments, other than the education department, housed inside Bikash Bhavan.
The area around Bikash Bhavan had turned into a virtual battlefield on Thursday evening after a series of violent clashes broke out between protesting school teachers and police.
Police resorted to lathi-charge to remove the agitators, who laid siege before the government building.
Many teachers were injured in police action, which persisted for over an hour and in repeated phases.
The teachers, who lost their jobs following a court order last month that canceled thousands of appointments in government-aided schools due to irregularities in the recruitment process, had been staging a sit-in demonstration demanding reinstatement.
Last month, the Supreme Court invalidated the appointment of 25,753 teachers and other staff in state-aided schools and termed the entire selection process "vitiated and tainted".

Paradip Marine Police arrested two for supplying goods to foreign vessels without Customs clearance, seizing items like industrial pipes and motors. The operation highlights the issue of revenue loss due to smuggling activities bypassing customs procedures.

The marine police station in Odisha's Paradip detained two persons for supplying goods to foreign ships anchored in deep sea without customs clearance, an officer said on Monday.
The goods are generally supplied to foreign ships after getting clearance from the customs department officials posted at Paradip Port.
However, some people using small boats were taking these materials to foreign ships anchored in the deep sea without getting customs clearance, thus incurring revenue loss for the country, said Paradip Marine Police Station in-charge officer Babita Dehuri.
The personnel of the marine police station on Sunday nabbed two people and seized some materials that were being transported to mid-sea through a small jetty. Goods, including large quantities of industrial pipes and motors, were being secretly loaded onto fishing boats and delivered mid-sea to the ships, the police said.

The duo confessed to pasting the poster flag and writing "Hindustan Murdabad" on the wall of a toilet near Akaipur railway station under the jurisdiction of Gopalnagar police station, the officer added.
According to police, the accused intended to provoke communal unrest by making the image public and attributing it to another community or group.
However, the plan was thwarted through timely intervention, police added.
"Yesterday night, a Pakistani National flag was found to be pasted on the walls of a washroom beside Akaipur railway station under Gopalnagar PS. Investigation revealed that this was willfully done by one Chandan Malakar (30) and Progyajit Mondal (45), both local residents and active members of a political party as also of Sanatani Ekta Manch," Bongaon police said in a post on X.
"They have confessed to the act and revealed that they had planned to write 'Hindustan Murdabad and Pakistan Zindabad' on that wall to create communal disturbances in the area. Both have been arrested in a specific case. Further investigation is on," it added.
"We shall spare no efforts to bring to book those who are hatching such conspiracies to trigger communal unrest," the post said.
Twenty-six people, including 25 tourists, were killed in a terror attack at Pahalgam in Kashmir on April 22, triggering a global outrage.
Different political parties and the Union government have referred to the alleged role of Pakistan-based agencies in sponsoring terror in Kashmir, but the neighboring country denied its role.
The ruling TMC in Bengal has cautioned against any attempt by certain right-wing fringe groups to disrupt law and order and instigate violence by flagging the Kashmir attack and called for a united effort to fight terrorism.

Deven Bharti assumes the role of Mumbai Police Commissioner, aiming to improve police accessibility and leverage technology for better public service.

Deven Bharti: Mumbai Police Commissioner 2023

Celebrated IPS officer Deven Bharti assumes the role of Mumbai Police Commissioner, focusing on tech-driven and accessible policing initiatives.

Veteran IPS Deven Bharti new Mumbai police commissioner

Deven Bharti, an experienced IPS officer, takes over as Mumbai Police Commissioner, focusing on accessible, tech-savvy policing.

Senior IPS officer Deven Bharti, who has been a part of probes into many high-profile cases, including the 26/11 terror attacks, on Wednesday took over as the new commissioner of Mumbai police.
The 1994-batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer succeeded incumbent Vivek Phansalkar, who retired after 35 years of service.
Soon after taking charge in the evening, Bharti (56) promised to reach out to the last citizen in terms of policing, crime prevention and detection.
"I will try to give effective police service to all Mumbaikars. We will like to reach the last man standing on the ground in terms of providing police service and security net. Wherever there are gaps, we will try to fill them with the help of technology," he maintained.
Bharti was serving as the Mumbai police special commissioner, a post created by the first Mahayuti government in 2023, before his elevation as the city's top cop.
While the state home department issued an order concerning Bharti&rsquo;s appointment, it has downgraded the post to the rank of Additional Director General of Police (ADGP), an official said.
The coveted post of Mumbai police commissioner has traditionally been of the ADGP rank, but it had been upgraded to the DG (Director General) rank in a few recent postings.
During his three decades-long career, Bharti has served in various capacities in Maharashtra and at the Centre. He served the 50,000-strong police force in the metropolis in various roles, including as joint commissioner of police (law and order), additional commissioner of police (crime), and deputy commissioner of police (crime).
He has also headed the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), besides serving as the inspector general of police (law and order ) in the Maharashtra police headquarters.
Known for his investigative skills, Bharti has been a part of many high-profile cases, including the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks in which 166 people were killed, the 2011 murder of journalist J Dey and the Farid Tanasha case.
He is credited with cracking down on homegrown terrorist organization Indian Mujahideen, which was responsible for a string of bomb blasts in the country, including in Maharashtra and Gujarat.
The senior IPS officer is also adept at tackling cyber and financial crimes.

Ex-Karnataka police chief Om Prakash's murder witnesses a twist as wife Pallavi allegedly confesses over a video call. Authorities examine a potential real estate dispute motive, with no arrests yet.

Karnataka Police Chief Murder: Wife Confesses

The wife of former Karnataka police chief Om Prakash, Pallavi, reportedly confessed to his murder over a video call. Authorities focus on a real estate dispute in their investigation as tensions rise.

Ex-Karnataka police chief wife allegedly confessed murder of her husband on video call

Pallavi confessed to the murder of ex-police chief Om Prakash via a video call. The motive is suspected to be a real estate dispute. She and her daughter Kruthi are under investigation.

In a shocking turn of events, Pallavi, the wife of former Karnataka police chief Om Prakash, has reportedly confessed to his murder during a video call with a neighbour. According to sources, Pallavi claimed, "I have killed the monster," during the conversation.&nbsp;
The tragic incident unfolded on Sunday afternoon when Pallavi and Om Prakash allegedly had a heated argument around 3:30 pm. It is reported that Pallavi incapacitated her husband by throwing chilli powder at him, then tied him up and stabbed him multiple times with two knives, as confirmed by a medical examination.
Following the murder, Pallavi allegedly video-called a neighbour, who is married to another police officer, to confess. The neighbour immediately informed her husband, leading to police intervention. When authorities arrived at the residence of Om Prakash, they detained both Pallavi and the couple's daughter, Kruthi, for questioning that lasted over 12 hours.
The police have identified Pallavi as the prime suspect, citing a potential motive linked to a dispute over real estate that Om Prakash had transferred to a family member. A police case has been filed based on a complaint by the couple's son, Kartikeya.
Kartikeya claims both his mother and sister suffer from depression and had previously threatened his father. Due to these threats, Om Prakash had temporarily moved to his sister&rsquo;s house for safety but was brought back by his daughter just 48 hours prior to the tragic event.
On the day of the murder, Kartikeya was at an event in Domlur when neighbours alerted him to the incident. He rushed home only to find police at the scene and his father dead in a pool of blood. He stated, "My mother, Pallavi, and my sister, Kruthi, have been suffering from depression and used to fight with my father frequently. I strongly suspect that they are involved in the murder of my father."
As investigations continue, no arrests have been made. Om Prakash, originally from Bihar, held a master's degree in Geology and had a distinguished career, having served as the Director General of Police of Karnataka in March 2025. He also led the Fire and Emergency Services and Home Guards before his tenure as police chief.

The agents, including the Indian mafia members, charged the Indian nationals, mostly students, Rs 4.5 million per person with the false promise of sending to the USA, and an additional USD 3,000 was charged as a visa fee upon their arrival here in Kathmandu, District Police chief Senior Superintendent of Police Bhupendra Bahadur Khatri told a press meet here.
Cases would be booked against each of the accused under sections pertaining to abduction, taking hostage, and human trafficking as per the Nepalese law, he said, adding, that a Nepali accomplice, who helped them in providing logistic services, was also arrested.
The freed Indians are staying at a hotel in Kathmandu as per the arrangements made by Nepal Police and they will be sent back to India coordinating with the Indian Embassy, Foreign Ministry, and other officials concerned, the police chief said.
When the hostages stayed at the rented house for more than two weeks, they were mentally and physically tortured, threatened, and locked in the rooms, he said.
&ldquo;Some of us were told, on a knife-point, to contact our family in India to assure them that we were safe and on the way to USA,&rdquo; one of the rescued persons told PTI.
All the documents, including visa and boarding passes, were forged while the police have recovered the passports of the victims along with fake rubber stamps and other forged documents from the site, Khatri said
