Nagpur: The arrest of notorious burglar Naresh Mahilange by a crime branch team from the city's outskirts on Saturday came with a twist. The police also took his attorney-turned-girlfriend into custody for her involvement in a spate of cases over the last couple of months.
This includes the housebreaking incident at Kotwali, where valuables worth Rs24 lakhs were stolen earlier this month. The police recovered stolen valuables worth Rs21 lakh from the burglars.
The girlfriend, who had earlier secured bail for Mahilange in 18 cases, had gone out of her way to provide logistical support to the notorious burglar. This included helping him procure a SIM card with fake documents. She also helped Mahilange to dispose of stolen valuables, and bailed out his accomplice Amrapal Patil, another notorious burglar.
The police have also nabbed Patil. Another accused, Fardeen Khan, was apprehended for purchasing the stolen valuables.
Police said Mahilange and Patil stole a bike from Koradi in April-end before abandoning it at Wathoda and moving to Beltarodi, where they stole a car. They then moved to Patansawangi on an Activa. After stealing a car from Patansawangi, they went to Kapil Nagar and broke into a house before decamping with valuables.

In June first week, Mahilange and Patil broke into the house of Jasani family at Mahal, decamping with valuables worth Rs24 lakhs. The burglars also fled with the DVR of the CCTV camera and threw it in a nullah. The crime branch team, comprising Asst PI Nitin Churpal, sub-inspector Madhukar Kokate, head constable Rajesh Deshmukh, and others under DCP, Crime, Rahul Maknikar, ACP Abhijit Patil, and Addl CP (Crime) Vasant Pardeshi, nabbed Mahilange and his gang using technical surveillance system.
Sources said Mahilange committed the burglary at the Jasani residence with his face covered, but the police identified him with the help of CCTV footage. Mahilange's gait while sneaking out of the house was identified by seasoned cops, who tracked him down with cellphone surveillance of his girlfriend, who was already on the police radar.

Sebi issues Rs 5.35-cr demand notice to OPG Securities, others in NSE co-location case
Sebi has sent notices to stock broker OPG Securities and its directors asking them to pay Rs 5.35 crore, in a case of unfair access to secondary market servers in connection with the NSE co-location issue, and warned of attachment of assets as well as bank accounts if they fail to make the payment within 15 days. The demand notices came after the entities failed to pay the fine imposed by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) in April 2025. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Colombia: Nueva oportunidad de inversión en Miami Financiación Empresarial Más información Undo In three separate recovery notices issued on Monday, the regulator directed OPG Securities and its directors -- Sanjay Gupta, Sangeeta Gupta, and Om Prakash Gupta -- to pay dues totalling Rs 5.35 crore within 15 days. This included a penalty amount and an interest. In the event of non-payment of dues, the market regulator said it will recover the amount by attaching and selling their moveable and immovable properties. Besides, they face attachment of bank accounts and arrest. In its order passed in April, Sebi levied a fine of Rs 5 crore on OPG Securities and its directors jointly for engaging in unfair trade practices. Live Events Additionally, Sebi imposed a fine of Rs 10 lakh each on OPG Securities and Sanjay Gupta for non-compliance with the regulator's code of conduct and hampering the investigation, respectively. "Noticee 1 (OPG Securities) gained an unfair advantage by repeatedly accessing the Secondary POP Server, thereby making unlawful gain. Regardless of the quantum of such unlawful gain, it is evident that the manner in which Noticee 1 connected to the secondary server constituted an unfair practice, which was recurrent in nature. This amounts to a serious violation," Sebi had stated. Furthermore, the regulator had highlighted that OPG Securities failed to uphold standards of integrity, due skill, care, and diligence in its business operations, while also neglecting to ensure compliance with statutory requirements. Since the Guptas were directors of OPG Securities during the period of violation, they were deemed vicariously liable for the company's actions, it had added.

Vijay Mallya claims he repaid money in full. But what's the reality?
Vijay Mallya is the talk of the town, again. After his four-hour long podcast with influencer Raj Shamani, the government and banks have called out the 'declared eonomic fugitive' for his claims that he is being harassed by lenders even after he has repaid the outstanding debts. Meanwhile, the lenders have argued that the bankrupt businessman still owes a large amount of money to creditors.

However, as per TOI sources, Mallya owes banks them nearly Rs 7,000 crore. The math is simple: When the case reached the Debt Recovery Tribunal (DRT) in June 2013, Kingfisher Airlines ' consolidated non-performing assets (NPAs) stood at Rs 6,848 crore, which included non-cumulative redeemable preference shares. Live Events As per the DRT decree, the total dues to creditors, including interest and charges, climbed to Rs 17,781 crore by April 10. Of this, banks have recovered Rs 10,815 crore, leaving an outstanding amount of Rs 6,997 crore, government sources told TOI. Source: TOI Officials said Mallya's repayment claims ignore the accrual of interest and penal charges, which are applicable until the full settlement of loans. Any loan comes with interest until the amount is fully paid. In case of loan defaulters, such as Mallya, there is also a penal interest. Sources added that Mallya appears to be citing repayment of the principal alone. This isn't the first time he has made such assertions. The liquor baron, who left India in 2016, continues to contest legal efforts to extradite him back to face charges of financial fraud and loan default. Following his exit from the country, banks were allowed by courts under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) to liquidate properties attached by enforcement agencies. Sales included marquee assets like the Kingfisher Villa in Goa. These recoveries were conducted in accordance with board-approved policies of banks. 'Norms are uniform irrespective of who the borrower is or from which part of the country or community he or she comes from. So, any allegation or claim made by Mallya regarding recoveries under any undue influence or under media pressure or due to an inherent bias against him is misconstrued and completely baseless,' TOI quoted a source as saying. Loans extended to Kingfisher Airlines also came under scrutiny, with instances of alleged irregularities. Former IDBI Bank chairman Yogesh Agarwal was among those arrested in connection with the case.

'Will not tolerate illegal entry': US embassy amid Indian student handcuffing row; warns on visa misuse
Image credits: X/@SONOFINDIA US embassy in India on Tuesday reiterated its stance on illegal immigration and said that it will not tolerate violation of any laws or visa abuse. In a social media post on X, the official handle of US embassy said, "The United States continues to welcome legitimate travelers to our country. However, there is no right to visit the United States," "We cannot and will not tolerate illegal entry, abuse of visas, or the violation of US law," it added. This comes a day after an Indian student was handcuffed and pinned to the floor at an airport in the United States before he was deported. A video was shared by X user Kunal Jain, an Indian-American social entrepreneur who writes books in Hindi, and recently relocated to India. According to Singh, the incident occurred at Newark Airport. He tagged the Indian Embassy, as well as external affairs minister S Jaishankar, seeking help for the boy. "I witnessed a young Indian student being deported from Newark Airport last night— handcuffed, crying, treated like a criminal. He came chasing dreams, not causing harm. As an NRI, I felt helpless and heartbroken. This is a human tragedy," he posted on his social media handle. As per the ministry of external affairs, the administration of US President Donald Trump, since assuming power in January, has deported as many as 1,080 Indian nationals from America. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Meanwhile a massive protest was held in Las Angeles over US President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration. Protesters set self-driving cars ablaze, blocked the 101 freeway, and clashed with law enforcement late into Sunday night, leaving parts of the city scorched and on edge. The flashpoint came after Trump took the extraordinary step of deploying the National Guard to California without the consent of the state's governor, an act not seen in decades. More than 300 troops arrived over the weekend, with 2,000 authorised and 500 US Marines on standby. Meanwhile, California governor Gavin Newsom told MSNBC that he will file suit on Monday against the Trump administration and called its order "an illegal act, an immoral act, an unconstitutional act."
