Smokey Davidson's past sexual assault case in 2015 becomes public amid ongoing investigations
Smokey Robinson, well-known singer-songwriter and music producer has recently been under a lot of fire and criticism. The popular personality was recently accused of alleged rape by unknown victims.
In a bombshell revelation recently, it was found that the singer was previously charged with sexual assault in 2015.
Smokey Robinson was previously accused of sexual assault?
Smokey Robinson was previously charged with the allegations of sexual assault all the way back in 2015, as per reports from TMZ. As the investigation went on into the celebrity, it was revealed by the L.A. County District Attorney's Office that they were given a case of sexual assault in 2015 against Davidson; however, it did not lead to any charges being filed.
The case itself was given off to prosecutors by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
In the same report it was also shared that none of the four anonymous people who have filed for charges of sexual battery, assault, false imprisonment and gender violence against Smokey were also involved in the 2015 case.
Smokey Davidson has denied all claims
After the lawsuits were filed, Smokey Davidson and his attorney, Christopher Frost, issued an official statement that the allegations were false and baseless in nature.
With regard to the latest update in the case, they also shared that "We are pleased that this statement has been released in which the LA District Attorney has confirmed there was no basis to file charges a decade ago."
He continued by saying that "one unfortunate aspect of celebrity is that it is not uncommon to be the target of spurious and unsubstantiated allegations. Mr Robinson looks forward to the conclusion of the current investigation and has no doubt that a similar determination will be reached here."
Smokey has also filed for a countersuit against the people who have filed the case against him

Taco Bhel
Bachi Karkaria's Erratica and its cheeky sign-off character, Alec Smart, have had a growing league of followers since 1994 when the column began in the Metropolis on Saturday. It now appears on the Edit Page of the Times of India, every Thursday. It takes a sly dig at whatever has inflated political/celebrity egos, and got public knickers in a twist that week. It makes you chuckle, think and marvel at the elasticity of the English language. It is a shooting-from-the-lip advice column to the lovelorn and otherwise torn, telling them to stop cribbing and start living -- all in her her branded pithy, witty style. LESS ... MORE Street food always comes up Trumps It also gets tarreefs. Wall Street has been unkind to versatile taco by associating it with a guy who's merely versatile in changing his mind/policies/friends/foes. Its acronym has been particularly snarky to a President for whom all things Mexican are difficult to swallow. It's doubly delish that TACO was dished out by a street called Wall, coined by Financial Times columnist Robert Armstrong. Should I succumb to the temptation of bringing in the 'strong arm' tactics of the present POTUS? Na–chhod do. Letit pass. 'Trump Always Chickens Out' has bred a brood of jokes, but the ones laughing all the way to the bank are street-smart dealers who bought when a tariff announcement took a bite out of a stock, and sold when a rescinding made it regain its mojo. Takings have been plumper than a Butterball turkey since Trump has see-sawed 50 times on tariffs since he returned to the menu. So, there's much Thanksgiving there. 'Good friend Modi' may not use the TACO jibe about 'Good friend Donald', but 'taycos' have plenty of takers in Gujju-land. In fact, Taco Bell has Mehtamorphosed to Taco Bhel, stuffed with anything. This has also been the fate of the traditional quintessential Bombay dish. Indeed noun has become verb; it's been 'bhel-puried'. Actually all dishes 'Make-see-kun' have been revolutionised, ordered from outlets called Pancho Villa, and polished off in a 'Zapata'. That's when the hungry aren't leaning towards 'peeza'. Masalafied Mexican and Italian have a pan-Indian following but nowhere more than in Ahmedabad. Remember, it was called the experimental theatre of Hindutva, but I've always found it to experimental theatre of food. Anything goes, even ingredients/toppings/fillings that don't conventionally go with one another. I'll get sarson da saagified for saying this, but culinary 'new normal' was first institutionalised in the khao galis of Amdavad. Like in another context, if others gave you a 'goli', they'd give you an ice 'gola' – in 22 flavours. The laadiwalas' of Manek Chowk had innovative pani-puri pani long before fancy fusion chefs started serving it in cutesy containers, and at distinctly uncutesy prices. Yes, there may be plenty of Ahmedabaddies, but I'm all for streetside Ahmedagoodies. *** Alec Smart said: 'Drones are now the worker bees of the war-hive.'

Police patils to assist in Ranjangaon triple murder probe
The Pune Rural Police have sought the assistance of Police patils from villages across Maharashtra in the ongoing investigation of the alleged gruesome triple murder case in Ranjangaon. The discovery of three unidentified bodies — a woman and two children — has raised suspicion of targeted killing. A senior officer from Pune rural police department said, 'We have conducted online meetings with more than 500 Police patils from various villages and Asha workers working at rural level to identify the bodies.' The presence of workforce from across the country in the industrial belt Ranjangaon has made authorities difficult to identify the deceased. Pune rural police have also sought assistance from the Crime Investigation Department (CID) to gather data of missing persons from other states, besides appointing a special investigation team to monitor the triple murder case. Police believe that the network of Police patils will help crack the case. The half-burnt bodies of a woman and two children were discovered at a field behind a private company in Ranjangaon-Khandale along the Pune–Ahilyanagar Road on May 25. According to the police, the woman, estimated to be aged between 25 and 30, had tattoo of a heart shape and heartbeat sign on the right hand, besides words mom and dad in English. The right hand also has the words 'Jai Bhim' and 'Rajratan'. A floral design is tattooed on her left arm. The police patils share crucial inputs and intelligence from their villages with the authorities.
