Pocso accused booked for producing fake birth certificate in court
Surat: Police booked a 20-year-old man at Umra police station on Thursday for allegedly submitting a fake birth certificate in court. The accused tried to prove he was a minor and have his case heard in a juvenile court.
Police had booked Sagar Bind, who is from Arjunpur village in the Mirzapur district of Uttar Pradesh, and his associate Mithilesh Saroj, also from UP, under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Bind is currently lodged in Lajpore Central Jail.
Bind was arrested six months ago after an FIR was filed for the rape of a 14-year-old girl at Sachin GIDC. He had allegedly taken the girl to Bihar. After his arrest, police carried out a bone ossification test on him, as he did not have a birth certificate.
The test found his age to be between 20 and 22 years. Then court sent him to judicial custody and the case was sent to the court of the special judge for the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act.
Later, the accused's lawyer produced a birth certificate from District Hospital, Mirzapur, for Bind, which showed his birth date as January 1, 2009, and asked that the case be transferred to a juvenile court. The court instructed police to verify Bind's age.

A police team went to Mirzapur for verification. At the hospital, police were told the certificate was fake.
Hospital officials confirmed that the serial number was wrong, and no such certificate was issued on that date. Hospital authorities said that original certificates have a scanner code through which one can access the details online. No details were shown when the fake certificate was scanned.
Police later submitted the details to the court. Based on these findings, an FIR was lodged by inspector B B Parmar. The investigation revealed that the other accused, Saroj, had helped Bind obtain the fake birth certificate.

Operation Spider's Web: How Ukraine targeted Russian airfield over 4000 km away with armed drones, destroy nuclear bombers
Operation Spider's Web: a strategic drone offensive Ukraine launched Operation Spider's Web, a meticulously planned drone assault targeting four Russian airbases: Olenya, Belaya, Ivanovo, and Dyagilevo, on June 1, 2025. The operation, personally overseen by President Volodymyr Zelensky, involved the deployment of 117 drones, resulting in the destruction of over 40 Russian military aircraft, including strategic bombers such as the Tu-22M3, Tu-95, and the A-50 AWACS. Zelensky praised the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), General Vasyl Maliuk, and all involved operatives, confirming that the operation took over a year and a half to prepare. 'Planning, organization, every detail was perfectly executed. I can say with certainty that this is an absolutely unique operation,' he stated. Zelensky also revealed that the base of the operation inside Russia was situated directly next to an FSB headquarters in one of the regions, a detail now made public.

Our personnel operated across multiple Russian regions – in three different time zones. And the people who assisted us were withdrawn from Russian territory before the operation, they are now safe. Glory to Ukraine!' The drones were ingeniously concealed within modified trucks, with launch mechanisms hidden under remote-controlled roofs. These trucks were strategically positioned near the targeted airbases, allowing for a surprise attack that penetrated deep into Russian territory, some sites being over 4,300 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. Live Events Tactical execution and technological innovation Operation Spider's Web showcased Ukraine's advancements in drone warfare and strategic planning. The drones, equipped with artificial intelligence targeting systems, were capable of identifying and striking critical components of the aircraft, such as fuel tanks, maximizing damage. The success of the strike was attributed to over 18 months of covert preparation, including smuggling drones across borders and establishing bases within Russia. These bases were reportedly set up close to Russian intelligence facilities, a factor that enabled the successful launch of drones from behind enemy lines. Also read: "Brilliant operation carried out on enemy territory, Russia suffered significant losses": Zelenskyy Strategic impact on Russian military capabilities The destruction of a significant portion of Russia's strategic bomber fleet, estimated at over one-third, dealt a substantial blow to its long-range aerial capabilities. The damage inflicted by the operation is estimated at around $7 billion. The hit to Russia's Tu-95 and Tu-22M3 fleet also undermines its ability to conduct future missile strikes from air platforms, reducing strategic flexibility. The A-50 airborne radar systems, critical for battlefield surveillance, were also among the casualties, marking another key loss. This operation not only impaired Russia's ability to launch long-range attacks but also exposed significant vulnerabilities in its air defense coverage. The effectiveness of the operation has prompted a reassessment of Russian security protocols around key military infrastructure. Implications for future military engagements Operation Spider's Web represents a turning point in the use of unmanned systems in strategic warfare. Ukraine's ability to organize a multi-regional operation with high-value targets and low personnel risk demonstrates a shift in modern military doctrine. The use of AI-enabled drones, covert staging near FSB facilities, and cross-time-zone coordination reinforces Ukraine's evolving capability to conduct asymmetric operations with maximum efficiency. This successful strike is expected to influence drone warfare planning by allied nations and adversaries alike.
