Man held from IGI Airport for posing as a cop to impress women
The CISF intercepted the man, identified as Sahil Kumar from Rajasthan's Alwar district, around 3.30 pm during routine profiling. He was wearing a T-shirt with the Delhi Police logo and carrying a forged ID card, Additional Commissioner of Police (IGI Airport) Usha Rangnani said.
During questioning, Sahil failed to provide any credible details about his posting.
He later admitted he was a student preparing for competitive exams and had no government job.
He told police he had impersonated a 2024-batch Delhi Police SI to deceive multiple women, including staffers from the force, and had come to the airport to meet one of them.
One Delhi Police staffer confirmed he had contacted her on social media posing as a police officer. Police recovered a fake ID card, forged appointment letter, documents, and a mobile phone with photos of him in uniform. He claimed he created the documents using Photoshop and bought the uniform from Delhi's Camp area, Rangnani said. Further probe is on.

On secure RG Kar campus, doctors and nurses rue what they lacked a year ago
1 2 Kolkata: The deployment of CISF personnel and police force was conspicuously beefed up on the campus of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital when the clock struck 3 am on Saturday — around the time when a horrific crime had occurred in the emergency building's third-floor seminar room a year ago. The female doctors and nurses, while passing by the locked seminar room — where the body of the trainee doctor was found on the morning of Aug 9 last year — still felt haunted as they recounted the crime at the emergency building. Their only regret was that if the same vigilance had been there a year ago, the postgraduate trainee doctor would not have suffered such a "painful death" on duty.

While on night shift around the same time on the same day in 2025, we have a sense of safety with the deployment of CISF and cops outside the ward and on the campus," said Anisha Basu, a house staff member of the emergency ward. "If the same vigilance was there, Abhaya could have been saved," Basu rued. There was rush of patients inside the trauma care unit and the emergency building, guarded by CISF and cops, including women personnel, in the dead of night when protesting doctors, flanked by members of 'Abhaya Mancha' and some locals, reclaimed the night till 4 am at Shyambazar 5-Point Crossing. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Do you have a mouse? Desert Order Undo Between 12 am and 2 am, both the cops and CISF personnel kept a watch over the campus. Five cops and three CISF men were spotted at the entrance gate, while two other CISF personnel were found checking the cards of patients' kin before allowing them entry to the emergency and trauma care unit. Around 3 am, the number of CISF and cops guarding the main gate swelled to 10, keeping a strict watch on the movement of people. Ankita Haldar, a Haltu resident, was was found standing in front of the 'Cry of the Hour', a symbolic statue for Abhaya on the RG Kar campus. The 'Abhaya Mancha' located near the hospital's entrance gate was empty throughout the night as protesters were at Shyambazar. A woman doctor walked out of the emergency ward and said: "We can now take a nap there without anxiety or feeling unsafe. The deployment has been increased further tonight. Why did we not have this security arrangement last year? This could have prevented the incident." The same question was raised by a nurse. "The CISF deployment is temporary, and we are worried about what would happen if they are withdrawn," she said. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

'Badi deewar gir gayi hai': Families recall Delhi wall collapse horror; 7 killed
NEW DELHI: Families in Delhi's Jaitpur woke up on Saturday to a nightmare they will never forget. "Some people were making roti, some were eating rice, and others were about to go to work when we heard the sound of the wall collapsing," said Ranjan, whose five family members, her parents, brother, and two young children, died in the tragedy. The Delhi Police received the first PCR call at 9.13am, reporting in Hindi, 'Badi deewar gir gayi hai' (a big wall has fallen). Heavy overnight rain had weakened a wall near Mohan Baba Mandir in the low-lying neighbourhood. Around 9am, it came crashing down on the jhuggis beside it, trapping eight people inside. Locals said the victims included two children, a woman, and several men, many of them migrant workers from West Bengal. "It fell on eight people, among them were two children, a woman, and several men. All were rushed to the hospital in serious condition," a resident said. Moina, a young girl from the area, said her father, a garbage collector, was among those pulled from the rubble. "I was sleeping when it happened. I didn't see anything," PTI quoted her saying. Police have launched an investigation into the incident, with the exact cause of the wall collapse still unclear. Officials suspect that waterlogging and soil weakening from the night's heavy rain may have contributed to the tragedy. "We will look into the structural condition of the wall, ownership, and any negligence involved. Statements of witnesses and survivors will be recorded," PTI quoted the officer saying. The sole survivor, 27-year-old Hasibul, remains under treatment.
