Man with ‘close' links to Goldy Brar arrested in Badshah's Chandigarh club blast case
The accused, identified as Deepak, was arrested in Delhi. He is a resident of Punjab's Faridkot and was allegedly in close contact with notorious gangster Goldy Brar, who had earlier claimed responsibility for the blasts.
On November 26 last year, two crude bombs went off outside two Chandigarh clubs, Seville Bar and Lounge, owned by Badshah, and De Orra Club. CCTV footage showed a man throwing a crude bomb at the clubs before fleeing the scene. The explosions shattered the clubs' glass windows. No injuries were reported.
Hours later, Goldy Brar, linked to gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, claimed responsibility in an alleged Facebook post. An unverified post also claimed Brar and another gangster, Rohit Godara, were involved.
On November 29, two suspects were arrested after an encounter in Haryana's Hisar district. The operation was carried out jointly by Chandigarh Police and the Haryana Special Task Force. Both accused were shot in the leg before being taken to a hospital for treatment.

Kochi school receives notice from education department for punishment on latecomers
Kochi: A fresh controversy erupted after a Class V student at Cochin Public School, Thrikkakara, was allegedly forced to run multiple rounds on the school ground and was confined to a dark room for arriving late. Following complaints from parents and student organizations, general education minister V Sivankutty stated that the school had no right to take such action and sought a report from deputy directorate of education (DDE), Ernakulam, on the incident. The child's parent Rasheed Pareed told TOI that his son received the punishment for being late to school by two minutes on Thursday morning. The parent alleged he was asked to run a few times on the ground and was also asked to sit in a dark room until the parent arrived. "When I complained to school officials, they said it is the norm at the school and asked us to transfer the child from the school to another school if needed," said Pareed. The parent said such punishments routinely happen at the school and the incident affected the child's morale to continue going to the school. "He says he is not interested anymore in going to the school," said Pareed. A police complaint was also filed by the child's family at Thrikkakara police station against the school authority. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is it better to shower in the morning or at night? Here's what a microbiologist says CNA Read More Undo In a Facebook post, Sivankutty emphasized that no form of discrimination against children would be tolerated in any school under any circumstances. "No teacher or management has the right to treat a child in such a manner. If a child arrives late, they can be advised not to repeat it, but locking them in a dark room in a way that affects their mental state is unacceptable," he said. Announcing an investigation, Sivankutty added that govt was taking strong measures in such matters, which led to a decline in such incidents. He suggested that lack of proper teacher training might be a contributing factor and said govt would consider training teachers in all streams. Soon after the minister's response, DDE officials inspected the school and issued notices warning that NOC would be revoked if such practices are repeated at the school. The officials said they will also send a detailed report of investigation to director general of education on Thursday. Repeated attempts by TOI to contact the school went unanswered.

Ludhiana: Cop who cracked ₹8-cr dacoity to be honoured
Inspector Suresh Kumar of the Ludhiana police commissionerate, currently posted with the state counter-intelligence wing, has been named for the prestigious President's Police Medal for Distinguished Service on the occasion of Independence Day 2025. Inspector Suresh Kumar (HT Photo) The honour caps an unblemished 36-year career marked by landmark investigations, including Punjab's biggest-ever heist — the ₹8.49 crore dacoity at the CMS cash management firm. His meticulous groundwork and relentless pursuit of leads in the case not only led to the arrest of the culprits but also recovery of a substantial portion of the stolen cash, earning him widespread recognition. Over the years, Inspector Suresh has handled some of the state's most challenging cases involving murders, gang crimes and organised criminal networks. His medal tally reflects his consistent record of excellence — the President's Police Medal for Meritorious Service (2016), the Chief Minister's Medal for Outstanding Devotion to Duty (2023), four DGP Commendation Discs (2010, 2017, 2022, 2023), over 200 commendation certificates and 10 appreciation letters from senior officers. Joining the force in 1990, he topped his batch of 600 recruits in basic training at Jahan Khelan and was an accomplished athlete, having been named Best Athlete at his college in 1987. Beyond policing, he is also known for his commitment to environmental causes, actively participating in tree plantation drives and promoting greenery. This year, only two Punjab Police officers — Inspector Suresh Kumar and ADGP (PAP) Mohammad Faiyaz Farooqui — were named for the President's Police Medal for Distinguished Service. 'Cases like the ₹8.49 crore dacoity tested every ounce of investigative will, but serving the public and upholding justice has always been my greatest reward,' Inspector Suresh said.
