Tamil Nadu Pastor Who Used Home Church As Cover To Sexually Abuse Minor Schoolgirls Held
Last Updated: Victor Kamaraj, a 54-year-old preacher, was arrested for sexually assaulting over ten female students in Thiruvallur. Evidence from his phone led to his arrest under the POCSO Act In a disturbing development, a 54-year-old self-proclaimed religious preacher, identified as Victor Kamaraj, has been arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting over ten female students near Sengunram in Tamil Nadu's Thiruvallur district. The arrest comes amidst a troubling increase in sexual assault incidents reported in the region. Kamaraj, who operated a church from his home, reportedly took advantage of a tuition program run by his wife, an Anganwadi centre employee. It was during these evening classes for schoolgirls that the alleged assaults occurred. Parents of the victims filed a complaint, prompting a police investigation. Sources indicate that a crucial piece of evidence emerged from Kamaraj's cell phone, which reportedly contained information confirming the sexual harassment of the students. Following this discovery, police swiftly arrested Kamaraj under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. He was subsequently produced in court and is currently lodged in Puzhal jail. This arrest is the latest in a series of alarming incidents of sexual assault in the Thiruvallur area. Just recently, an Assamese youth was apprehended in a separate case involving the kidnapping and sexual assault of a girl in a neighbouring village. Adding to these concerns, another harrowing incident unfolded mere days later in the Kanakamma Chathiram area, where expansion work for the Chennai-Tirupathi National Highway is underway. A 17-year-old girl walking by was allegedly abducted and subjected to an attempted rape by a young man, reportedly working on the highway project. Her screams alerted local villagers, who bravely intervened. The assailant attempted to flee but was chased down, apprehended by the villagers, and then handed over to the police.

Doctor in trafficking net insisted couple opt for surrogacy despite being fit to conceive
Hyderabad: Citing her 25 years of experience, Dr A Namratha of Srushti Test Tube Baby Centre — arrested by Hyderabad police along with seven others in the alleged baby-selling racket — insisted that the complainant couple opt for surrogacy. This, despite the couple's medical tests confirming them fit to conceive. The tests were worth Rs 66,000. These revelations have come to light in the remand report filed by Gopalapuram police recently. The report also stated that the doctor used to store all surrogacy-related documentation in a separate consultancy room to keep it out of the reach of the staff and ensure that none of the records were handed over to patients. The remand report stated that the complainant couple was told by Dr Namratha in September last year that a healthy embryo was successfully implanted in the surrogate and confirmation of pregnancy was awaited. "Believing this the couple made further payments…...Dr Namratha later confirmed the pregnancy (to the complainants) over a phone call and periodically shared some medical reports, but withheld originals and did not allow complainant to retain even digital copies, often forcing them to leave their phones outside her office," the report added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Up to 70% off | Shop Sale Libas Undo You Can Also Check: Hyderabad AQI | Weather in Hyderabad | Bank Holidays in Hyderabad | Public Holidays in Hyderabad Dr Namratha promised the complainants that a healthy child would be delivered to them after DNA confirmation and for that, their own sperm and eggs would be used to develop embryos. However, she handed them a two-day-old boy born to an Assamese couple, under the pretext that the child was biologically theirs. According to the remand report, when the complainants confronted Dr Namratha about it, she "verbally accepted her mistake" and sought time to resolve it. "But the couple could not reach her after that despite trying multiple times," the report added. Cops have also found that another accused, Dr N Sadanandam of Gandhi Hospital, used to supply anaesthesia to Dr Namratha despite knowing that the centre was running without registration. The Telangana Medical Council (TGMC) has served a show cause notice to both the jailed doctors. While eight accused have been arrested in the case, three others - Kalpana, Sanjay and Nandini - are absconding. MSID:: 123044508 413 |

Trafficking ring busted on Vivek Exp; 27 girls rescued & 5 held
1 2 Guwahati: The Railway Protection Force (RPF), in collaboration with the Government Railway Police (GRP), successfully rescued 27 girls, including three minors, from the Dibrugarh-Kanyakumari Vivek Express at New Tinsukia junction, Assam. The operation also led to the arrest of five suspected traffickers, who were allegedly operating under the guise of a private NGO. The suspects, identified as Hemanta Saikia, Mitali Bailong, Swapna Hazarika, Pranjali Baruah, and Jitu Dutta, all hail from Tinsukia. They were apprehended and presented before a local court on Friday. The victims were reportedly being trafficked to Tamil Nadu and intercepted during a routine security check ahead of Independence Day, an RPF official from the New Tinsukia division said on Friday. The incident unfolded on Wednesday night at Dibrugarh railway station when RPF personnel noticed a suspiciously large group of young women traveling together. Upon questioning, the group claimed they were offered jobs at a private company in Tamil Nadu. However, discrepancies between the company list and the passenger list prompted immediate action, leading to their de-boarding at Tinsukia, the officer said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Why enterprise networks need both reach and resilience NetworkWorld | Tata Communications Undo Most of the rescued women, in their twenties, belong to the tea garden communities and local Assamese families from Tinsukia and Dibrugarh districts. Alarmingly, they had been taken without parental consent. Authorities have arranged immediate shelter for the minors and are working to reunite them with their families. GRP officer-in-charge Probhat Saikia confirmed ongoing legal proceedings and investigations aimed at dismantling the broader trafficking network.
