Kid's accidental peeing triggers brawl in train; family assaulted, 3 held
Nagpur: An accidental urination by a kid in the general compartment of 04121 Subedarganj Special Express took a violent turn on Friday afternoon.
The victim family, including a woman and a child, was brutally assaulted by fellow passengers.
The altercation, which began over an accidental act by a 10-year-old boy, resulted in injuries and arrests, turning the train journey into a traumatic experience.
According to Government Railway Police (GRP) sources, the incident occurred between Betul and Amla stations. Ansar Ahmed, a native of Sultanpur district in Uttar Pradesh, was travelling with his sister, brother-in-law, and young nephew en route to Hyderabad.
The child, seated on the upper berth with his mother, accidentally urinated, with some of the urine trickling down to the lower berth, where the other passengers were seated.
Three men, allegedly angered by the incident, began hurling abuses and soon launched a physical attack on Ansar and his family. Ansar was reportedly struck on the head with a belt buckle and sustained injuries requiring stitches. The attackers showed no restraint, assaulting even the woman and the child.

GRP officials detained the trio after the train arrived at Nagpur station. However, since the incident took place within Betul district jurisdiction, all three accused were later transferred to the Betul GRP for further investigation and legal proceedings.
Officials also revealed that tensions between the two groups may have started earlier at Betul station itself over a seating dispute, and the child's act might have triggered the violence. Further probe is under way.

Chawla, a pro-Khalistan Sikh leader from Nankana Sahib and the chairman of Punjabi Sikh Sangat, has been consistently vocal in his anti-India rhetoric. He has reportedly played a key role in organizing anti-India demonstrations and is believed to be tasked by ISI with identifying 'soft targets' among Indian Sikh jathas visiting Pakistan on religious occasions . Chawla first came into the spotlight after posting photographs with Hafiz Saeed, the founder of Jamaat-ud-Dawa and the mastermind behind the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.

Couple confronts gang of robbers on board Jaipur-Bandra Exp
MUMBAI: A courageous Joesghwari-based couple foiled a robbery attempt on board the Jaipur-Bandra Terminus Superfast Express in the early hours on Sunday as they confronted four knife-weilding robbers and forced them to alight from the moving train to escape being nabbed by the police. Though the robbers camped off with a trolley bag containing cash and valuables worth ₹7 lakh, the couple also managed to snatch a bag owned by the robbers, which could become crucial evidence in the case. According to the Borivali Government Railway Police (GRP), Ayub Khan, 36, a construction businessman and a native of Fatehpur district in Rajasthan, lives in Jogeshwari with his wife Hina, 30, daughter Saira, 7, and son Abban, 11. The family was returning from Rajasthan via the Jaipur-Bandra Terminus Express in an air-conditioned compartment and were supposed to alight at Andheri. While the train slowed down after passing Borivali station, an unknown person dressed in a khaki shirt and trousers approached Hina Khan and asked her to move their luggage – comprising two large and two small trolley bags and a cardboard box – to the doorway, saying Andheri station was approaching. He also helped her shift their luggage to the doorway as three other unknown men appeared at the spot. The compartment was nearly empty at this time as most passengers had alighted. 'I had gone to the washroom when the unknown man told my wife to move our luggage to the door and also helped her out,' Ayub Khan told Hindustan Times. 'I knew something was amiss the moment I got out of the washroom. When the three other men came and stood near our luggage, I confronted them.' At this point, one of them pulled out a knife and threatened him. But instead of being scared, he and his wife resisted and fended off their robbery bid. 'The moment I spotted the knife, the only thought I had was to save my kids who were standing right there,' said Ayub Khan. 'I fought back with all my might and managed to grab the bag of one of the robbers as he jumped off the running train.' The bag contained some clothes and bundles of beedis, he added. While all the four men jumped off the moving train between Goregaon and Jogeshwari stations, they managed to snatch a trolley bag from the couple containing jewellery and valuables worth ₹7 lakh, including ₹1.5 lakh in Indian currency and ₹1 lakh in Saudi Riyals. Once the train reached Andheri station, the couple alighted and reported the matter to the GRP. Based on their complaint, a case of robbery was registered by the Borivali GRP against the four unidentified accused under sections 309 (4) (robbery) and 3 (5) (criminal act in furtherance of common intention) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

Israeli forces open fire a kilometer away from Gaza aid site, killing 3, health officials say
Israeli forces in the Gaza Strip opened fire early Monday as people headed toward an aid distribution site a kilometer away, killing at least three and wounding dozens, health officials and a witness said. The military said it fired warning shots at "suspects" who approached its forces. The shooting occurred at the same location where witnesses say Israeli forces fired a day earlier on crowds heading toward the aid hub in southern Gaza run by the Israeli and U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation . The Israeli military said it fired warning shots on Monday toward "several suspects who advanced toward the troops and posed a threat to them," around a kilometer (1,000 yards) away from the aid distribution site at a time when it was closed. The army denied it was preventing people from reaching the site. Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo by Taboola by Taboola The United Nations and major aid groups have rejected the foundation's new system for aid distribution. They say it violates humanitarian principles and cannot meet mounting needs in the territory of roughly 2 million people, where experts have warned of famine because of an Israeli blockade that was only slightly eased last month. In a separate incident Monday, an Israeli strike on a residential building in northern Gaza killed 14 people, according to health officials. The Shifa and al-Ahli hospitals confirmed the toll from the strike in the built-up Jabaliya refugee camp, saying five women and seven children were among those killed. Live Events The military said it had struck "terror targets" across northern Gaza, without elaborating. Israel says it only targets militants and tries to avoid harming civilians. It blames civilian deaths on Hamas because the militant group is entrenched in populated areas. Also Monday, the Palestinian Authority said a 14-year-old boy was shot and killed by Israeli forces in the West Bank in the Palestinian village of Sinjil. In a statement, the Israeli military said troops in the Sinjil area had opened fire and "neutralized" someone who threw two bottles containing a dangerous substance at them. Shooting in southern Gaza A Red Cross field hospital received 50 wounded people, including two declared dead on arrival, after the shooting in southern Gaza, according to Hisham Mhanna, a Red Cross spokesperson. He said most had gunfire and shrapnel wounds. Nasser Hospital in the city of Khan Younis said it received a third body. Moataz al-Feirani, 21, who was being treated at Nasser Hospital, said he was shot in his leg as he walked with a crowd of thousands toward the aid distribution site. He said Israeli forces opened fire as they neared the Flag Roundabout at around 5:30 a.m. "We had nothing, and they (military) were watching us," he said, adding that drones were filming them. On Sunday, at least 31 people were killed and over 170 wounded at the Flag Roundabout as large crowds headed toward the aid site, according to local health officials, aid groups and several eyewitnesses. The witnesses said Israeli forces opened fire on the crowds at around 3 a.m. after ordering them to disperse and come back when the distribution site opens. Israel's military on Sunday denied its forces fired at civilians near the aid site in the now mostly uninhabited southern city of Rafah, a military zone off limits to independent media. An Israeli military official, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with procedure, said troops fired warning shots at several suspects advancing toward them overnight. The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which has denied previous accounts of chaos and gunfire around its sites, said it had delivered aid on both days without incident. On Sunday night, the foundation issued a statement, saying aid recipients must stay on the designated route to reach the hub Monday, and that Israeli troops are positioned along the way to ensure their security. "Leaving the road is extremely dangerous," the statement said. 'Risking their lives for food' U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said he was "appalled by the reports of Palestinians killed and injured while seeking aid in Gaza" on Sunday. "It is unacceptable that Palestinians are risking their lives for food." He called for an independent investigation into what happened. Israel and the United States say they helped establish the new aid system to circumvent Hamas, which they accuse of siphoning off assistance. U.N. agencies deny there is any systemic diversion of aid and say the new system violates humanitarian principles by allowing Israel to control who receives aid and by forcing Palestinians to travel long distances to receive it. Palestinians must pass close to Israeli forces and cross military lines to reach the GHF hubs, in contrast to the U.N. aid network, which delivers aid to where Palestinians are located. No end in sight to Israel-Hamas war The Israel-Hamas war began when Palestinian militants stormed into Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducting 251. Hamas is still holding 58 hostages, around a third of them believed to be alive. Israel's military campaign has killed over 54,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, according to Gaza's Health Ministry, which does not say how many of the dead were civilians or combatants. The ministry is led by medical professionals but reports to the Hamas-run government. Its toll is seen as generally reliable by U.N. agencies and independent experts, though Israel has challenged its numbers. Israel says it has killed around 20,000 militants, without providing evidence. Hamas has said it will only release the remaining hostages in return for more Palestinian prisoners, a lasting ceasefire and an Israeli pullout. Israel has vowed to continue the war until all the hostages are returned, and Hamas is defeated or disarmed and sent into exile. It has said it will maintain control of Gaza indefinitely and facilitate what it refers to as the voluntary emigration of much of its population. Palestinians and most of the international community have rejected the resettlement plans, viewing them as forcible expulsion.
