Man kills friend, hides corpse in room,dumps it next day with father's help
Guddu, who runs a barber shop, bludgeoned his friend Rajeev (45), an electrician, with an iron rod over an argument at his house on Saturday night. The murder came to the fore after CCTV footage captured them transporting the body on a rickshaw.
After killing him, Guddu stuffed the body inside a bed storage box and spent the night in the same room. The next morning, he informed his father, Mehraj. Together, they transported the body on a rickshaw and dumped it in a garbage pile.
Deputy SP Sarvam Singh confirmed their arrest under relevant BNS sections after police identified the body and reviewed CCTV footage. Both have been sent to jail, Singh said.
Guddu admitted during interrogation that he and Rajeev were good friends and Rajeev often visited his shop, police said. His father went to Ahmedabad to meet brother, so the house was vacant. Guddu informed Rajeev that the house was empty and suggested they spend the night there. Both of them became drunk and started arguing over a trivial matter.

Foreign dreams crash: 351 lose Rs 21cr in Mohali in year
Mohali: In a sweeping crackdown on illegal immigration rackets, the Mohali police registered 351 FIRs against 956 accused immigration agents over the past year for duping aspiring emigrants of Rs 21 crore. The investigations revealed shocking cases where gullible individuals were either abandoned in third countries like Jordan or trafficked via dangerous "Donkey routes" before being rescued from countries such as Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Nepal. SSP Harmandeep Singh Hans said 173 people were arrested so far in connection with the scams. "These accused preyed on the dreams of innocent people seeking a better life abroad. Their hard-earned money was looted under the false promise of jobs, study visas, or PR routes to the US and Canada," said SSP Hans. According to police records, many of the agents were operating without any valid licence or registration. In numerous cases, victims were left stranded mid-route in foreign countries, far from their intended destinations. "Some were even dropped off in countries like Jordan instead of the US or Canada and had to return on their own," the SSP added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Swelling and internal bleeding in the brain, help this baby Donate For Health Donate Now Undo In one such case, a young man from Phase 11, Mohali, identified as Manav, was sent to the United States via an illegal Donkey route but got trapped in Mexico. After making a distress call to his family, the Mohali police registered a case under Sections 318(4), 61(2) of the BNS and the Immigration Act. Three individuals were booked: Rinku of Kansal (Mohali), Gurjinder Singh of Naniwala (Ambala), and Makal of Ismailabad (Kurukshetra). All three were involved in orchestrating the route and collecting hefty payments. One of the police's major breakthroughs came when a human trafficking ring was busted and 33 people were rescued from Indonesia. These victims—residents of Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand—were promised safe entry into the US or Europe. Instead, they were kidnapped, held captive, and tortured in foreign safehouses. Police officials said that the traffickers would take the victims to countries like Nepal or Indonesia, beat them, and force them to contact family members back home claiming they reached Mexico. The families were then extorted for Rs 30 to 40 lakh, after which the traffickers would either abandon the victims or send them back to India. SSP Hans emphasised that Mohali police have intensified their campaign against such illegal agents. "We are pursuing each case diligently. Arrests will continue, and those responsible for ruining lives will be brought to justice," he said.

Ambulance carrying corpse rammed near Pipla Tunnel, two die
1 2 3 4 5 Nagpur: A funeral journey in an ambulance from Pune to Kolkata turned into a double tragedy after a horrific accident on the Nagpur-Jabalpur Highway claimed two lives. The incident took place around 5.30am on Wednesday near the Bharat Petrol Pump, close to the Pipla Tunnel, within Hudkeshwar police station limits. The ambulance, which was carrying the body of Kanhai Biswas, a resident of Kolkata, broke down mid-route. As per police reports, Shekhar Pawar (35), the cleaner of the ambulance, stepped out to seek help from a nearby petrol pump to find a mechanic. During this time, an unidentified speeding vehicle crashed into the stationary ambulance from behind and fled the scene. The family was en route to Kolkata after taking Kanhai's body in Pune, who died due to health reasons, said police. A senior police officer overlooking the case said, "We have registered a case of negligent driving. Technically, if a vehicle breaks down, it should be moved to the service lane or at least parked properly on the side of the road. In this case, the ambulance broke down in the middle of the road and was left there without adequate precautions. Also, as of now, there is no concrete evidence to suggest rash driving. Therefore, we have not invoked hit-and-run charges and have proceeded with a case of negligent driving instead. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like TV providers are furious: this gadget gives you access to all channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo However, further investigations will paint a clearer picture and necessary actions will be taken."

The crash resulted in the death of ambulance driver Shivaji Bhambure (40), a resident of Pune, and Pankaj Biswas (40), a relative of the deceased who was accompanying the body. The deceased's teenage son, 14-year-old Abir Biswas, was also in the ambulance at the time of the incident survived with minor injuries and was treated at the hospital. Hudkeshwar senior police inspector Dnyaneshwar Bhedodkar said the driver, who was seated with the door open, was thrown out by the impact, while the others inside fell into the canal with the vehicle. Both victims were critically injured and rushed to the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH), where doctors declared them dead on arrival. Hudkeshwar police have registered a case under BNS Sections 106(1), 281, and Motor Vehicle Act Sections 184, 134, and 177 against the unidentified driver.
