Assam govt orders shoot-on-sight order to quell communal tension in Dhubri
1 2 Guwahati: Faced with communal tension in border town Dhubri and provocative posters on integration of Dhubri district with Bangladesh appearing, the Assam govt on Friday issued shoot-at- sight orders. The govt is also rushing in Rapid Action Force (RAF) and CRPF personnel in the district after mob clashes ensued over objectionable objects being found near a place of worship. Chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma who visited the district on Friday said that at least three posters were retrieved by police at Dhubri which were pasted at various locations by one organization "Nabin Bangla." "Since last one week the law and order at Dhubri has been challenging. A communal group is trying to create disturbances which the government will not tolerate," Sarma said. Sarma later posted on X, "I visited Dhubri and directed law enforcement officers to follow zero tolerance against elements who desecrate….." places of worship. "In Dhubri, a particular group has become active with the intent to damage our temples. We have issued SHOOT AT SIGHT ORDERS," Himanta wrote. A day after Bakrid on June 7, an animal part was found in front of a place of worship, following which both Hindus and Muslims appealed for peace and harmony. The next day again the incident was repeated, and stones were thrown at night, Sarma added. Sarma said that for Bakrid, thousands of cattle were brought from West Bengal by a 'new beef mafia' in Dhubri. "I have ordered an inquiry into this. I have directed the authorities to arrest who has started this cattle trade,' Sarma said. He said that next year, he will be present at Dhubri on the day of Eid and stay the next day as well. "We are fully committed to ensure enforcement of law and order in the district and defeat all communal forces," he added. Dhubri district has the highest Muslim population in the entire state constituting 90 percent of the district's total population, majority of whom are believed to be of Bangladeshi origin. It has become a flashpoint for Assam's socio-political dynamics. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .

AGTF seizes marijuana worth 2cr, arrests five for smuggling in Jaipur
1 2 3 4 Jaipur: In a major crackdown on interstate drug smuggling, Rajasthan's Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF) Friday seized 424 kg of marijuana concealed in a truck and arrested five individuals, including the alleged kingpin in Jaipur. The seized consignment, valued at approximately Rs 2 crore in the international market, was being trafficked from Chhattisgarh to Jaipur under the guise of a medical delivery. According to ADG (Crime and AGTF) Dinesh M N, the AGTF team intercepted a Scorpio SUV at the Shivdaspura toll, which was found escorting a mini-truck. Based on a tip-off, the police set up a blockade at multiple locations. The truck was later seized in the Chaksu police station area, loaded with sacks of marijuana hidden beneath boxes labelled as medicines. The arrested accused include Sumer Meena (48), the alleged ringleader and a resident of Khorabisal, Jaipur West; Narendra Singh Jat (45); Nanagram Balai (55); Deepak Gurjar (38); and Himanshu Mata (29) of Karnal, Haryana. All five were booked under the NDPS Act. DIG Yogesh Yadav and additional SP Siddhant Sharma led the operation, which was executed by a 17-member AGTF team, including inspector Subhash Singh, ASI Shankar Dayal Sharma, and head constables Kamal Singh and Shashikant. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo Police said GPS devices were installed in both the SUV and the truck to coordinate the smuggling route. When the Scorpio stopped at Shivdaspura toll, the truck was still on its way to Jaipur. Upon learning about the interception, the truck drivers attempted to flee into the fields near Chaksu but were quickly arrested. A thorough search of the vehicle revealed the contraband beneath cartons of medicine. Police officials said that Sumer Meena previously managed to transport similar consignments on at least two occasions but was finally nabbed on this third run. His role in earlier drug hauls is now under further scrutiny. AGTF said it would intensify its crackdown on drug networks operating across state lines, particularly those using fake identities and medical fronts to evade detection.

Delhi: Fake ‘doctor sahab' nabbed after 10-year run from Haridwar
A 52-year-old man posing as a doctor from Haridwar, and affectionately called 'Doctor sahab' by locals in the Uttarakhand city, was arrested by the Delhi Police Crime Branch after a decade-long search, officers said Friday. Police said the accused, Raj Kumar Sharma, was allegedly living under a false identity and posing as a doctor affiliated with AIIMS, Rishikesh. He is wanted in two separate cases of cheating and forgery registered in Delhi. Police said Sharma was first booked on March 23, 2007, under IPC sections 420 (cheating), 468 (forgery committed with the intent to cause cheating), 471 (using a forged document or electronic record as genuine), and 120B (criminal conspiracy). He was among six people arrested for duping government banks by taking vehicle loans on forged documents. During trial proceedings, Sharma absconded and was declared a proclaimed offender (PO) by a court on December 15, 2016, after not appearing in hearings. In the second case, Sharma duped two individuals of Rs 14.10 lakh in 2015 by selling a plot using forged property documents. 'He first tried to compromise with the victim and issued a cheque of Rs 26 lakh from a bank account, which was already closed by him several years ago. Thereafter, the complainant approached the police. Feeling pressure from the complainant and the police, he vacated the house overnight in 2015 and, after changing his identity, settled in Haridwar. He could not be traced or arrested and was declared a PO by the court concerned,' said DCP (Crime Branch) Sanjeev Yadav. After fleeing Delhi, police said Sharma constantly changed his identity, appearance, addresses, and phone numbers to avoid arrest, said police. He settled in Haridwar and began living as a doctor, gaining the trust and respect of locals. Upon arrest and questioning, he allegedly admitted to evading police over the years. Police also discovered that he had no legitimate medical qualification linked to AIIMS. According to the police, Sharma was born in 1973 in Bulandshahr in Uttar Pradesh. He completed his BA from Meghalaya University and has one son and one daughter. Before turning to fraud, he ran monthly magazines and newspapers in North Delhi's Burari area. At present, he claimed to have no steady source of income and was relying on ancestral agricultural earnings for survival, said police. Following his arrest, Sharma was brought to Delhi, and the police stations concerned — Roop Nagar and Burari police stations — have been informed of necessary legal proceedings.
