ED opposes arms consultant's plea on 'fugitive' tag
NEW DELHI: ED on Friday opposed in Delhi HC a plea by UK-based arms consultant Sanjay Bhandari against a trial court order declaring him a "fugitive economic offender". The agency said when the order was passed in July, the trial court was aware of an assessment order showing property worth Rs 655 crore being surreptitiously acquired. Bhandari's counsel, senior advocate Kapil Sibal , contended before Justice Neena Bansal Krishna that the prosecution was initiated without completion of assessment proceedings. "They had no evidence to show that there was a Rs 100 crore tax liability," he submitted. HC said it would hear the matter on Aug 20.

Jack Nicholson's grandson Sean Knight Nicholson arrested in Los Angeles on domestic violence allegations
Recently, Sean Knight Nicholson, the grandson of retired Hollywood actor and filmmaker Jack Nicholson , found himself in legal trouble for felony domestic violence. On Wednesday, August 5, he was taken into custody in Los Angeles. The US Sun reports that police officials have verified that Sean was arrested at approximately 5 p.m. and released that same day. It was reported that he was freed on a bond of $50,000 (Rs 41.8 lakh). On August 26, Sean—also known as Sean Norfleet—will appear in court in Los Angeles on charges of assaulting a woman. In Los Angeles, a felony conviction carries a maximum four-year sentence in state prison. A representative for the Pacific Division of the LAPD informed the outlet that Jack's mugshot would not be made public. But this is the first time Sean has been involved in a legal dispute. Sean is the son of Jennifer Nicholson, the first child of the Shining Stars. In 1963, Jennifer and Sandra Knight welcomed Sean into the world. Five years later, they were divorced. On the other hand, Sean Knight Nicholson's Instagram bio states that he composes music. In his profile, he also mentioned the genres of "phonk," "horror composition," "experimental club," "hardcore," and "dark ambient." However, Sean's bio, Patron of the Dark Arts, also mentions a few IMDB credits from projects he has worked on. Jack Nicholson, an 88-year-old veteran actor, has six children in total. Among his five grandchildren is Sean's brother Duke, who is continuing his father's legacy and has made a few film appearances.
