The next day, Loni MLA Nandkishore Gurjar told the media that he received a call around 11pm alleging that staff at Bharat Juice Corner were contaminating juice by 'mixing spit into it'.
He also alleged that the two men initially identified themselves as Aman and Sunil, but were allegedly misrepresenting their identities.
"They had 'Kalava' tied on their wrists, which raised suspicion," Gurjar said, claiming that the practice is not customary in Islam, and suggested that they were trying to conceal their identity.
The MLA further stated that although the men were detained initially, they were later released.
MLA Gurjar said he had requested the area DCP to look into the matter and would raise the issue with the chief minister's office, calling it a violation of existing directives of the state.

With one hand on gun and the other on a camera, Syrian attackers killed Druze
The fighters in military-style uniforms pointed their rifles at the three unarmed men and ordered them out onto a sunny balcony, before barking at them to pause. 'One minute. You want to film them?' one of the attackers asked his partner. The unfolding horror, which was already being filmed by one gunman on his cellphone, was delayed for a few moments to allow a second fighter to start capturing the events. 'Let's go! Throw yourself over,' the gunmen yelled at their victims, members of Syria's minority Druze faith. Two of the attackers shot the men one by one as they clambered over the black railing before their bodies tumbled to the street below, according to the footage circulating on social media. The victims were Moaz Arnous, his brother Baraa Arnous and their cousin, Osama Arnous, according to a family friend and another cousin who said the video showed the three being killed at their home in the southern city of Sweida on July 16. The deaths were among 12 execution-style killings of unarmed Druze civilians carried out at three sites in and around Sweida this month by gunmen wearing military fatigues. Another video shows Mounir al-Rajma, a guard at a communal water well, being gunned down by two fighters after telling them he is Druze, his son said. Another shows a group of fighters forcing eight civilians to kneel in the dust of a roundabout before shooting them dead, according to a friend and relatives. The bloodshed in Sweida province that erupted in mid-July was initially between local Druze militia and Bedouin tribal fighters and subsequently, government forces who were sent to restore order. The violence killed hundreds of mostly Druze people. Relatives and friends of the victims said they believed Syrian government forces killed their loved ones. Syria's Defence Ministry said on July 22 that it was aware of reports that an 'unknown group' wearing military fatigues committed 'shocking and gross violations' in Sweida. It did not mention execution-style killings targeting Druze people. The Ministry vowed to investigate the abuses, identify those responsible and impose 'maximum penalties' on perpetrators, 'even if they are affiliated with the Ministry of Defence.' On the same day, the Interior Ministry condemned 'in the strongest terms the circulating videos showing field executions carried out by unidentified individuals in the city of Sweida'. Syria has been plagued by bouts of sectarian strife since the sudden fall of President Bashar al-Assad and his police state in December 2024 after 14 years of war. The new government, led by a former Sunni Islamist group that has its roots in global jihad, dissolved Mr. Assad's Army and sought to integrate dozens of former rebel factions into a national army, but those forces have struggled to fill the security vacuum. Sweida province is predominantly populated by the Druze community, a distant offshoot of Islam that comprises about 3% of Syria's pre-war population of 24 million. The atrocities there came four months after a spree of killings against the Alawite minority, with armed factions affiliated to the new government killing hundreds of people in coastal settlements. The Sweida unrest began on July 13 when longstanding local tensions over land and resources in the province escalated into clashes between local Druze militia and Bedouin tribal fighters, who, like government forces, largely adhere to the country's majority Sunni faith. The violence worsened significantly after the Syrian military was deployed to quell the clashes, according to residents, two war monitors and reporters. The Syrian Network for Human Rights said 1,013 people have been killed in the bloodshed, including 47 women, 26 children and six medical personnel. The group said victims were mainly Druze. The organisation's head, Fadel Abdulghany, said it had documented execution-style killings by Syrian troops, Bedouin fighters and Druze groups. 'Muslim or Druze?' A forensic pathologist in the city of Sweida, who requested anonymity, said he had examined 502 bodies that had been brought to the Sweida National Hospital during this month's violence. One was decapitated, and two, including a teenage girl, had their throats slit. Most of the others suffered from gunshot wounds inflicted at close range, he said. The son of Rajma identified his father in a video filmed outside a school which is less than a mile from their home. Rajma is seen sitting at the school's entrance as three men in military fatigues are heard screaming at him, 'Are you Muslim or Druze?' Rajma answers, 'I'm Syrian', one fighter responds: 'What does Syrian mean? Muslim or Druze?' Rajma says: 'My brother, I'm Druze.' Three of the fighters immediately open fire. 'This is the fate of every dog among you, you pigs,' one of them says. In another video, a group of seven fighters in military fatigues carrying rifles are seen guiding eight men in civilian clothes down a sidewalk. The only visible insignia on the fatigues is a small black patch on the right arm of one of the fighters bearing the Islamic declaration of faith. The eight victims walk in single file. The last man in line was identified as Hosam Saraya, a Syrian-American citizen. And next to him were his father and brother. The wife of a man in line said men in military fatigues had surrounded their apartment building and demanded that the men inside surrender themselves, promising to question them for a few hours and return them home safely.

Midtown Manhattan shooting: Fundraisers for Didarul Islam's family cross $250k; NYPD mourns father-of-two killed on duty
More than $250,000 has been raised through two separate fundraisers to support the family of NYPD officer Didarul Islam, who was fatally shot during a mass shooting in Midtown Manhattan earlier this week. One fundraiser, set up on for the 36-year-old father of two, had collected $195,561 by 8:30 pm on Wednesday. It aims to reach a goal of $500,000. 'Didarul Islam was more than a police officer — he was a devoted father to two young boys, a beloved son, a caring husband, and a big brother not only to his sisters but to countless cousins, both here and in Bangladesh,' the organisers wrote. 'We lost not just a brother, but a piece of our hearts.' A second campaign, created by Tom Grech of the Queens Chamber of Commerce on GoFundMe, had raised $56,641 by the same time. All proceeds will go to Islam's family, New York Post reported. Islam's wife is due to give birth to the couple's third child next month. He was on duty providing security at 345 Park Ave at around 6:30 pm on Monday when Shane Tamura, a disgruntled Las Vegas security guard harbouring a grudge against the NFL, entered the skyscraper with an AR-15-style assault rifle. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Featuring Brigade Ebony™ at Brigade Showcase 2025 | Aug 8–10, Sheraton Grand, Brigade Gateway Brigade Group Learn More Undo Tamura fatally shot Islam, fellow security guard Aland Etienne, and Blackstone executive Wesley LePatner in the building's lobby before taking an elevator to the 33rd floor. There, he killed Julia Hyman, an associate at Rudin Management, who was laid to rest at a funeral on Wednesday, before turning the gun on himself. According to Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch, who was a friend of LePatner's, Tamura blamed the NFL for a brain injury he claimed to have suffered while playing high school football. However, he ended up in the wrong elevator bank and never reached the NFL offices located in the building. 'PO Didarul Islam was a hero from the moment he put on our uniform,' NYPD Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry said this week. 'When pure evil showed up on his post last night, he stood between that evil and innocent people,' Hendry added. 'Police officers are mourning him as a friend and co-worker, but we ask all New Yorkers to honor him as the hero he was.'

Zohran Mamdani's ‘Defund the NYPD' posts surface as he visits slain cop Didarul Islam's family
Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani posted about visiting the house of Didarul Islam, the NYPD cop killed by Shane Tamura in the Midtown Manhattan shooting. However, his post triggered backlash, with people mentioning his controversial 'defund the police' tweet from 2020. New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani speaks about mass shooting at a midtown Manhattan office tower in New York City. (REUTERS) 'Two days ago, an act of senseless violence took the lives of Officer Didarul Islam, Wesley LePatner, Aland Etienne, and Julia Hyman. Today, I visited Officer Islam's family and learned of his legacy. I ask you to join me in honoring the memory of these four New Yorkers,' Mamdani wrote. Midtown shooting victims: Wesley LePatner was a Blackstone executive killed in the shooting at the Manhattan office building in New York. The other victim of the massacre was Aland Etienne, a security officer and father. The fourth person killed in the mass shooting that rocked the city was Julia Hyman, a Cornell grad who worked at Rudin Management. Social media mocks Mamdani: An individual wrote, 'Zohran Mamdani exposed as a total fraud. Mocking cops, calling them racist, then acting like he cares? No loyalty to America. He belongs in Uganda, not leading NYC. Deport him and protect our city!' Another shared a screenshot of his 2020 post featuring the hashtag '#DefundTheNYPD.' A third questioned, 'Just think what would have happened if you would have defunded the Police like you wanted.' A fourth remarked, 'And you want to defund the police?' During the mass shooting, Mamdani was in Uganda for his wedding. He returned Wednesday and reportedly went straight to Islam's home to meet his family. He was photographed by the New York Post outside the house, holding flowers. In another picture, he was seen hugging a relative of Islam. "I landed back in New York City this morning and went directly to the home of Officer Islam, where I met with members of his family, young and old who are heartbroken over the loss of their son, of their brother, their father, their husband, their friend. Heartbroken in a way that words cannot fully describe,' Mamdani told reporters. He added, "We spent close to an hour together, there were moments that stayed with me.' Mamdani continued, "They welcomed me into their home. They refused to let me leave until I had breakfast with them," adding, "They are an embodiment of so much of what makes this city the one that we love."
