Cops bust rave party at Bagru hotel, 50 arrested
Jaipur: City police early Saturday arrested 50 people, including 10 women, during a raid at an alleged
liquor rave party
at a hotel in Bagru's Himmatpura area. The raid took place at
Caelum Atharva Palace and Restaurant
, where a large quantity of liquor was seized, and the hotel operator was taken into custody for serving alcohol without license.
DCP (West) Amit Kumar said police received a tip-off about the rave party. Officers in plainclothes were dispatched first to confirm the information. After verifying the report, additional police teams from Bagru and Bindayaka police stations were sent to the scene around 2pm.
When police entered the venue, they found dozens of young men and women heavily intoxicated and partying amid loud music. Heavy music was still on when the police team arrived. Many attempted to flee but were quickly stopped by police. The hotel operator was called to the spot to show the necessary excise documents for serving alcohol, but as he failed to provide them, he was arrested.
Bagru CI Moti Lal said the partygoers were found dancing with the women in a state of intoxication. The DJ was ordered to shut down the music, and the gathering was dispersed. In total, 40 men and 10 women were detained and taken to Bindayaka police station.
A police official said some of them were from Jaipur while others came from nearby cities. Special arrangements were made to organise the party, and invitations were distributed through social media platforms. Following the raid, the men were booked under section 170 of BNSS, while the women were booked under section 172 of BNSS. The hotel manager was booked under Excise Act for serving liquor without a license.
While there were no immediate reports of drug use, an investigation is currently underway. Most of the men and women were bailed out after their arrest, but the hotel manager remains in custody and will be produced before a magistrate.

Illegal liquor worth Rs 1 crore seized from flat
Noida: Excise officials discovered an illegal liquor cache worth Rs 1 crore in a Greater Noida West apartment on Monday and arrested a man for allegedly planning to sell it in the black market. The liquor, incuding 1,911 crates of beer and 435 bottles of foreign liquor, was from the previous financial year, and the accused planned to pass it off as fresh stock, officials said. According to Subodh Kumar, district excise officer, the accused, a Sector 30 resident, stocked up the liquor during the last week of March 2025, when the new UP excise policy was about to come into effect. "Some shop owners across the state were selling leftover stock at discounted rates, which Sachin Jaiswal, purchased in bulk. During interrogation, he admitted that he planned to sell the old stock by affixing fake labels," Kumar said. As per procedure, when a new excise policy comes into effect, the leftover unsold liquor stock from the previous financial year must be turned in to the govt by the liquor shop owners and wholesalers by March 31, and only stock of the current financial year can be sold April 1 onwards. An FIR has been registered under relevant sections of BNS and Excise Act.

Property seizure drive: Police target 1,172 criminals in state
Patna: Bihar Police has intensified its drive to confiscate properties acquired through criminal and illegal means across the state. On Monday, director general of police (DGP) Vinay Kumar announced that 1,172 criminals had been identified for asset seizure with court proposals already submitted against 188 of them. The court has so far approved confiscation orders in four cases. The DGP said Bihar has 1,249 police stations and 1,172 criminals who had acquired assets through illegal means had been identified for seizure under Section 107 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS). "Proposals were received against 239 of these identified criminals by the sub-divisional police officers (SDPOs) of various districts through the SHOs concerned. Among them, proposals against a total of 212 identified criminals were forwarded by the SDPOs to the senior superintendent of police/superintendent of police (SSPs/SPs). Proposals against 188 identified criminals were sent to the court. Out of the 188 proposals sent, orders were passed by the court to confiscate the assets of criminals under Section 107 of the BNSS in four cases so far," Kumar said. He added that prior to the nationwide implementation of the BNSS in July last year, law enforcement agencies faced challenges in confiscating black money and assets of such criminals. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo However, new provisions introduced under the BNSS have made the process more effective and accessible. "Earlier, action was mainly taken by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), but due to the ED's busy schedule, there were several bottlenecks in the process of confiscating the assets of criminals. Now, DSP-level officers are empowered to directly propose the confiscation of criminals' black money to the courts," he said. He reiterated that the campaign against corruption continues with a zero-tolerance approach. "From Jan to June 12, 2025, the vigilance bureau caught a dozen police officers red-handed while accepting bribes. In various districts of the state, cases were filed against a total of 22 police officials from Jan to May this year. Out of these, 15 police personnel were arrested and forwarded to court. Also, 66 police personnel were suspended," the DGP said. He added that action is also being taken against repeat offenders released on bail under the Arms Act. If they reoffend, their bail will be cancelled, and this process has already begun. The DGP also highlighted an increase in the pace of FIR registration. "Compared to last year, more FIRs have been registered this year. There is a clear focus on conducting speedy trials and punishing criminals without delay," he said. Addressing concerns around murder rates, Kumar said, "Even a single murder in a year is intolerable as everyone has the right to live. Around 4,000 murders occurred around 2004, whereas today the number is approximately 2,400. When comparing the number of murders from 2004 to 2024, there has been a decline." To ensure timely justice, Kumar said a proposal had been prepared by the state police headquarters to establish 100 fast-track courts across Bihar. "The formation of fast-track courts in all districts is being arranged not only to quickly punish offenders but also to provide immediate justice to the innocent and the victims," he added.
