3 minor girls raped in Goa's Calangute; guest house owner, manager among 4 held
Police have arrested the owner and the manager of a guest house in North Goa district where three minor girls were allegedly raped by two men, taking the number of those held in the case to four, officials said on Thursday. The girls, aged 11, 13 and 15 and residents of the same building, were allegedly raped by two men at the guest house located in Calangute area on June 7 and 8. The five had checked-in at the guest house together, they said. The two older girls are sisters. The girls' parents filed complaints on June 8 that they had gone missing a day earlier. Police formed multiple teams, and rescued them on the same day from the guest house while arresting Altaf Mujawar (19) and Om Naik (21), an official earlier said. Two more persons - guest house owner Rajat Chauhan (31) and manager Mansoor Peer (35) - were arrested on Wednesday night, Superintendent of Police (North) Rahul Gupta told PTI on Thursday. They were arrested for accommodating the minor girls at the guest house without verification and consent of their parents, thus violating laws and abetting the crime, he said. All the four accused have been booked under relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and the Goa Children's Act, the police said. "We are sealing the guest house and moving for cancellation of its license. The guest house management and owners will not be spared if they give room to a child in the absence of any family or relatives accompanying him or her," the SP said, cautioning all such facilities in the state.

Rajasthan influencers hand out beer to commuters, viral video sparks backlash
Seven social media influencers were arrested in Rajasthan's Jaipur after a video of them distributing alcohol on a busy road emerged on the Internet, triggering widespread outrage. The incident took place on Nirjala Ekadashi, a significant religious observance for Hindus. The viral video features influencer Sachin Singh, also known as Lappu Sachin, along with six others, distributing bottles and glasses of beer to commuters on a busy street in Jaipur. At one point in the video, an auto-rickshaw driver is allegedly forced to drink a glass of beer before driving away. The accused arrested were identified as Sachin Singh, Pradeep Kadwasra, Vikas Verma, Abhishek Nirmal, Sunil Kumar, Aditya Mahariya, and Ankit Meghwal, according to a report in NDTV. Their 'alcohol party' drew mixed reactions from commuters. While some appeared uncomfortable, others laughed and participated. The video came to the attention of authorities after a social media user shared it. 'Hello Jaipur police. These boys are stopping people on the road and making them drink and drive. Fine all of them and give these boys a taste of jail's drink for a few days,' the user posted on X. Watch here: Hello @jaipur_police ye ladke logon ko road par rok rok ke drink and drive karwa rahe hain. In sabka challan kaato aur in ladko ko thode din jail ki drink pilao — Madhur (@ThePlacardGuy) June 10, 2025 The video quickly gained traction, sparking outrage across social media platforms. 'That's why education is necessary,' a user wrote. 'Who are these people? This is getting out of hand now! What even,' another user commented. 'Aryabhatt invented 0 after seeing the IQ of these indians,' a third user reacted. Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Digant Anand later confirmed that the video was filmed on Nirjala Ekadashi, stating that the stunt was deemed 'offensive to religious sentiments,' the report said. During the police interrogation, the group claimed they had no intention of offending anyone and stated that the act was carried out solely to gain followers on social media. Following their arrest, the influencers issued a video apology, in which they can be seen kneeling, holding their ears, and appearing disheveled, some with torn clothing. Sharing the apology video on social media, Rajasthan BJP spokesperson Laxmikant Bharadwaj commented, 'They were distributing beer on the streets in style for a reel. Jaipur Police taught them a lesson.'
