Heartbroken by Odisha train crash, our prayers with families who lost loved ones: Joe Biden

Biden said that USA mourns the tragic incident alongside the people of India.

US President Joe Biden on Saturday said he is heartbroken by the tragic news of a train crash in India that has killed nearly 300 people.
The crash in Odisha's Balasore district involving three trains is one of the worst rail accidents in India in nearly three decades. At least 288 people are dead and over 1,100 injured.
"(First Lady Dr) Jill (Biden) and I are heartbroken by the tragic news of the deadly train crash in India. Our prayers go out to those who have lost loved ones and the many who suffered injuries in this terrible incident," Biden said in a statement.
"The United States and India share deep bonds rooted in the ties of family and culture that unite our two nations &mdash; and people all across America mourn alongside the people of India. As the recovery effort continues, we will hold the people of India in our thoughts," Biden said

In their complaint, the parent said that the King James Bible has 'no serious values for minors because it is pornographic by our new definition'

King James Bible banned in primary schools in USA's Utah. Here's why

A school district in the American state of Utah has banned the King James' Bible in primary and middle schools for 'vulgarity and violence' after a complaint by a parent. 

In their complaint, the parent said that the King James Bible has 'no serious values for minors because it is pornographic by our new definition'

A school district in the American state of Utah has banned the King James Bible in primary and middle schools for 'vulgarity and violence' after a complaint by a parent. In their complaint, the parent said that the King James Bible has 'no serious values for minors because it is pornographic by our new definition'
The complaint was reportedly filed in March 2023 after a 2022 law passed in Utah allowed parents to challenge books found in school libraries.&nbsp;
The 72,000-student Davis School District north of Salt Lake City removed the Bible from its elementary and middle schools while keeping it in high schools.&nbsp;
The decision comes as conservative parent activists, including state-based chapters of the group Parents United, descend on school boards and statehouses throughout the United States, sowing alarm about how sex and violence are talked about in schools.
Parents who have pushed for more say in their children's education and the curriculum and materials available in schools have argued that they should control how their children are taught about matters like gender, sexuality and race.

Australia's most famed soldier committed war crimes, domestic violence, murder: Court

The verdict was hailed as a major victory for Australian media freedom, with journalist and defendant Nick McKenzie tweeting: "Justice."

One of Australia's most decorated soldiers lost a landmark defamation case against major newspapers Thursday after a bruising trial that saw accusations of murder, domestic violence, witness intimidation and war crimes.
Ben Roberts-Smith, a former member of Australia's elite Special Air Services regiment, sued three newspapers after 2018 reports alleged he was involved in the murder of six unarmed prisoners in Afghanistan.
Roberts-Smith denied the allegations and launched a multi-million-dollar defamation case in response.
But Justice Anthony Beskano said the papers had proven many of their allegations were "substantially true" and dismissed the case.
The verdict was hailed as a major victory for Australian media freedom, with journalist and defendant Nick McKenzie tweeting: "Justice."
Before the trial, Perth-born Roberts-Smith was Australia's most famous and distinguished soldier.
He won the Victoria Cross -- Australia's highest military honour -- for "conspicuous gallantry" in Afghanistan, where his unit was hunting for a senior Taliban commander.

Odisha train crash: Rahul Gandhi in USA says BJP will blame what Congress did '50 yrs ago'

Gandhi and members of the Indian diaspora observed a 60-second silence in memory of those who died in the Odisha triple train crash tragedy.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi spoke about the recent Odisha train crash at an event in the United States of America.
At the event in New York on June 4, 2023, Gandhi and members of the Indian diaspora observed a 60-second silence in memory of those who died in the tragedy.
Gandhi said, "I remember a train accident when the Congress party was in power. Congress did not get up and say it is the fault of the British that the train crashed. The Congress minister said it is my responsibility that the train crashed, I'm resigning."
"If you ask them why the train accident occurred, they'll say that 50 years ago, Congress did something," the Congress leader added.
He further said, " That is the phenomenon of Narendra Modi. He is trying to drive the Indian car, and he only looks in the rearview mirror. And then he does not understand why this car is crashing, not moving forward."

The unresponsive aircraft was flying over New York before suddenly changing direction and flying straight to Washington, DC, as per reports.

The plane was registered to a company named Encore Motors, but it is not yet clear why it was non-responsive, and why it crashed.

Indian-origin father-son duo arrested for assaulting teenage girls in Canada

An Indian-origin man and his son have been arrested and charged in Canada for allegedly assaulting, exploiting and extorting multiple teenage girls over several months.

An Indian-origin man and his son have been arrested and charged in Canada for allegedly assaulting, exploiting and extorting multiple teenage girls over several months.
Gurpartap Singh Walia, 56, and his son Sumrit Walia, 24, were arrested after an investigation was conducted to find a missing 13-year-old girl in April, a Calgary police statement said.
The girl who was located later revealed that she was in a relationship with Sumrit who allegedly provided her with alcohol, drugs, and vapes in exchange for sex, it said.
The Father-son duo worked at and owned Haddon Convenience Store in Calgary.
They also own Premier Liquor Wine and Spirits, located next door to the convenience store, where the assaults occurred, the statement said.
As the investigation progressed, the officers determined that the father and son were providing vapes, marijuana, cigarettes and alcohol to multiple other teenage girls, who were sexually assaulted at the businesses.
It is believed the incidents occurred between December 2022 and May 2023. The girls could not legally consent.
Police arrested both suspects on June 1.
A search warrant at a residence resulted in the seizure of 975 grams of cocaine with a street value of USD 97,500, and seven handguns.
Search warrants were also executed at the two businesses, which resulted in the seizure of a computer with child pornography, drugs and drug paraphernalia, contraband tobacco, vape cartridges and collapsible batons.
Sumrit was thus charged with one count of sexual interference with a minor, one count of sexual exploitation, one count of sexual assault, one count of possession of child pornography, and one count of accessing child pornography.
He is also charged with one count of creating child pornography, seven counts of unlawful possession of a firearm, one count of possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking, one count of extortion, three counts of uttering threats, one count of selling contraband tobacco to youth and one count of breach of a court order.
Meanwhile, his father Gurpartap Singh is charged with four counts of sexual assault, four counts of sexual interference with a minor and one count of selling contraband tobacco.&nbsp;
