Man arrested for killing 1-year-old daughter
Navi Mumbai: A 40-year-old man was arrested for allegedly killing his one-year-old daughter, who was unwell and crying, out of rage on Monday.
According to the police, the accused is a resident of Devmal Thakurwadi village in Pen Taluka, living with his four children including the deceased one-year-old child from his third marriage. The police said that the mother of the child parted ways with the accused for his abusive behaviour. 'He was known for his anger issues and abusive behaviour. Due to this, his third wife parted ways with him about one and a half months ago,' said the investigating officer.
The police said that the incident occurred on Monday around 5 PM when the child was persistently crying as she was unwell. This enraged the accused and he allegedly slammed her head on the floor, resulting in her death on the spot, said a police officer. Witnessing this, the accused's other three children ran out to the neighbours crying for help. When the accused tried to escape the spot, the neighbours caught him and handed him over to the police, said a police officer.
The accused was arrested under section 103(1) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Section 75 of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2000.

‘Fake' certicate for job: Surat court rejects anticipatory bail application of dismissed cop
An anticipatory bail application of a dismissed police officer, who had allegedly obtained a fake caste certificate to land a job, was on Wednesday rejected by the Surat District Court. The officer served as the Assistant Commissioner of Police in the Surat city police before his services were terminated. B M Chaudhary was dismissed from service as per an order by the state home department, dated May 20. A week later, on May 25, he was booked under Section 12(1)(A), 12(1)(B) of the Gujarat Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes (Regulation of Issuance and Verification of Caste Certificate) Act, 2018. Chaudhary then filed an anticipatory bail application with Surat District Court of 14th Additional Session Judge B M Govani a few days ago. The order passed by the court on Wednesday stated: 'Investigating Officer is hereby directed to strictly comply with the provisions of Section 35(2) of BNSS (the arrest of a person without a warrant when a complaint, credible information, or reasonable suspicion exists that they are involved in a non-cognizable offense) and the ratio laid down by Supreme Court in the case of Arneshkumar Vs. State of Bihar in their true letter and spirit.' As per the details of the case, Chaduhary's late father Motiram Chaudhary had allegedly obtained a fake ST certificate, issued to him on July 19, 1990. Chaudhary then allegedly landed a job using the certificate. He was recruited as a sub-inspector in 1990, and later was promoted to the posts of a police inspector and then an assistant commissioner of police. Chaudhary had been posted as the ACP, K division, Surat city police, since 2022. The case was filed against Chaudhary based on a letter by Praveen Parghi, president of Adijati Vikas Trust, Godhra, on October 7 last year. Parghi claimed that Chaudhary had used a fake ST certificate to get his job and promotions. The State Vigilance Department ordered the Gujarat Police's vigilance cell to launch a probe. According to the FIR, the commission had written to Chaudhary '15 times' in 2024 seeking documents, but he delayed the process, seeking more time. The State Vigilance Department subsequently ordered registration of an offence against him, it stated. Additional Public Prosecutor Dighant Tevar said, 'The accused police officer had obtained a tribal certificate to get a job in the police department. The investigation agency had reminded him 15 times to appear for statements, but he failed to turn up.' Defence lawyer M A Patel did not respond to calls till the press time.

Food dept cracks down on meat shops in Ghaziabad
Ghaziabad: Food safety department has launched a crackdown on illegal slaughtering, poor hygiene and unregistered food business operators (FBOs) in Ghaziabad. This led to closure notices, seizure of equipment and penalties under the Food Safety and Standards Act on Wednesday. During an inspection at Halal Chicken Shop in Shastri Nagar, chicken slaughtering was found to be taking place despite the outlet having no registration for a slaughterhouse, assistant commissioner of food (Grade II), Ghaziabad, Dr Arvind Yadav told TOI. "The FBO had a registration for a meat shop but not for slaughtering. As a preventive measure, the slaughtering equipment was seized while he was allowed to continue the shop and sale of meat. A penalty was imposed on him as per provisions of the Food Safety Act," Dr Yadav said. In Indirapuram's Kanawani Pulia area, a meat shop, run by Guddu Qureshi, was found operating without any food registration. Legal proceedings under Section 58 of the Act were initiated and the shop was shut down immediately. Another meat shop in the area, Pappu Mutton Shop, was issued a notice for violating registration conditions. Officials said its licence may be suspended if hygiene issues are not resolved within the given timeline. At Windsor Street Market in Indirapuram, Lucknow Wale Kababi Non-Veg Restaurant was pulled up for displaying roasted meat in the open and poor cleanliness, Yadav said.

GHMC has no right to demolish if it does not give permission, say corporator and Mayor
The Wednesday's council meeting at the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation witnessed some paradoxical moments, with corporators as well as Mayor Gadwal Vijayalakshmi affirming that the corporation should not go ahead with demolition of unauthorised constructions. The debate was kicked off by BRS corporators who demanded action against absentee member Baba Fasiuddin reportedly for abetting suicide of a BRS leader in Borabanda. The deceased leader who fell to his death from his unauthorisedly constructed home in SRT Nagar area, was alleged to have been harassed by who strongly denied the charge. The GHMC had reportedly issued notices to the leader over unauthorised construction, which, the BRS leaders allege was done at the behest of Mr. Fasiuddin. In connection with this, corporator Dedeepya Rao questioned why notarised documents are not accepted for according building permissions. While there were over 200 houses built illegally with ground plus five floors, only the BRS leader was targeted with threats of demolition. Chief City Planner K. Srinivas tried to reason that as per the GHMC Act, 1955, sale deed is a mandatory requirement for issue of building permissions, and that notary documents are not accepted as proof of ownership. Bansilalpet corporator Hemalatha Laxmipathi, at this juncture, came up with the argument that if GHMC would not accord permission on the basis of notarised documents, it did not have the right to bring down the structure, which defied all the rationale of the Act. Mayor Ms. Vijayalakshmi, without much thought, endorsed the argument, and repeated the statement, much to the amusement of officials and other corporators. One more issue was raised during the meeting, about encroachment of seven acres of government land in Uppal, which is being constructed upon, based on the permission obtained on a different survey number. Commissioner R.V. Karnan said the permission was given based on a favourable report by the District Collector in 2021. Later, notices were issued, and the builder approached the court.
