'It always makes me laugh seeing a villain act like a victim… God doesn't reward mean-hearted, scamming, fake, deceitful, malicious, selfish, con artists, cruel, lying, stealing, using, a** Mfs.. I'll tell you that much. Man, I could keep going on that list but lemme stop...'

As per the same source, the accusations are related to his 2023–2024 season with the Milwaukee Bucks. They reportedly paid particular attention to "unusually heavy betting interest on Beasley's statistics" beginning in January 2024. The source further added that one or more major U.S.
sportsbooks allegedly took notice of the action.

Steve Haney, the player's attorney, told The Detroit News that the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York is in charge of the probe. As per the outlet, he further said:
'It's a gambling investigation involving Malik. No criminal charges have been issued. It's nothing but an investigation, and Malik is entitled to the presumption of innocence.'
Currently, the NBA is investigating whether Malik Beasley engaged in betting operations, which is prohibited by the league. The league forbids players from engaging in any kind of gambling, including game betting. He can be suspended or subject to worse repercussions if proven guilty.

Over 18k tenants, servants verified in 15 days ahead of Independence Day
1 2 Chandigarh: To keep a tab on anti-social elements and strengthen the security system ahead of Independence Day, the Chandigarh Police launched a special campaign to verify tenants and domestic helpers across the city. During the campaign, different police teams verified a total of 18,497 tenants and servants in 15 days. During this verification drive, Sector 49 police booked two women employers in Sector 48 for keeping domestic helpers without conducting their police verification. Over 15 days, verification of 9,586 tenants and 8,911 servants was completed by the 16 police stations of the city. This initiative was undertaken on the directions of SSP Kanwardeep Kaur in response to increasing security threats and the need for heightened vigilance ahead of the Independence Day celebrations in the city. A campaign was launched to recognise outstanding performance, with 27 policemen from six police beats being awarded a 'Class-1 certificate' and a cash prize for their excellent work. All the information recorded during this campaign has been uploaded to the e-Beatbook app. Recently, the administrator also instructed the police regarding the importance of tenant verification. The verification campaign was launched on July 5, and police set up different verification camps in 16 sensitive and densely populated areas of the city until July 20, 2025. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No One Expected Kate To Wear That—Not Even Her Husband Crowdy Fan Undo These areas included Kaimbwala village, Sector 11, Sector 23, Dhanas Milk Colony, Bapu Dham Colony, Sector 16, Kishangarh, Mauli Jagran, Village Faidan, Sector-21, 32, 35/36, 39, 63, and Manimajra.

Man wanted in case of fake loan docus used to secure bail held
Indore: Crime branch of Indore police on Friday arrested a 61-year-old man, who was absconding for three years in a major case involving fake loan passbooks used to secure bail from courts. Additional DCP Rajesh Dandotiya said that the accused, Ramesh Kalota, a resident of Barodi Hatod was part of a gang that created forged loan documents to fraudulently secure bail for individuals involved in serious crimes. With this arrest, the total number of accused held in the case has reached 37. During the arrest, the police recovered three fake loan passbooks and a notarised stamp related to a lost passbook from Ramesh's possession. Preliminary investigations revealed that the accused was operating this racket for nearly a decade, either providing fake sureties or posing as a surety himself to facilitate bail for several accused in criminal cases. Ramesh admitted to working with other members of the gang, contacting families of arrested individuals, charging hefty sums in exchange for bail, and producing forged documents to secure their release. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Iconic 90s Women: The Crushes of a Generation Boite A Scoop Undo Information obtained from various courts indicated that Ramesh submitted fake loan documents in at least ten court cases, prompting police to initiate correspondence with the respective courts to begin proceedings for cancellation of those bails. Earlier, in a related development, another accused Kedar Dabi, who was already arrested in the same case was found to have used a fake loan passbook again to secure bail for Saloni Arora, an accused in the journalist Kalpesh Yagnik suicide case. Both were subsequently booked separately and arrested by the crime branch. A specially formed SIT team led by ACP Devendra Singh Dhurve was tracing absconding accused and curbing such fraudulent operations in the city. As part of this continuing operation Ramesh has now been booked under IPC sections 420, 467, 468, 471, and 34 at the crime branch police station. The police are also pursuing legal procedures to have the bails obtained through forged documents invalidated. Investigations have so far linked Ramesh to bail arrangements in several cases across different police stations including Raoji Bazaar, Tilak Nagar, Sanwer, Khajrana, Annapurna, Sadar Bazaar, Kanadia, and GRP Indore, with suspects such as Sumit, Ravi, Ashok, Dharmendra, Vipin, Vishnu, Dheeraj, Vijay, Subhash, and Monu benefiting from his fraudulent surety services.

Woman stabbed to death by estranged hubby during his niece's birthday party in Abdullapurmet
1 2 3 Hyderabad: A 35-year-old woman was stabbed to death by her estranged husband in front of nearly a dozen guests at a birthday celebration at his niece's house in Abdullapurmet on Thursday night. According to Abdullapurmet police, the victim, S Sammakka, had moved to Abdullapurmet from Suryapet only a fortnight ago, having separated from her husband, S Srinu (50), due to repeated quarrels. The accused was taken into custody by police in Hayathnagar on Friday evening.

On Thursday, she was invited by Srinu's niece, Rajeswari, 38, to her daughter's 14th birthday celebrations at their second-floor rented flat in SC Colony, Abdullapurmet. "The party began around 7 pm, and the cake-cutting ceremony was scheduled for 7:15 pm. Around ten guests, most of whom were neighbours and relatives, were present," said Abdullapurmet inspector V Ashok Reddy. At around 7:15 pm, Srinu arrived at the party and took a seat in the corner. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Dominican Republic: Kitchen Remodeling Trends in 2025 May Surprise You Kitchen Remodeling | Search ads Search Now Undo Moments before the cake was due to be cut, Sammakka appeared in front of him, filming the event on her mobile phone. "Suddenly, Srinu pulled out a knife and stabbed Sammakka three times in the neck while shouting accusations of an illicit affair," Rajeswari alleged in her police complaint. Sammakka collapsed to the floor and died on the spot. The shocked guests raised the alarm. The landlord, Gunde Balraj, and his sons, Pavan and Shiva, tried to overpower Srinu on the ground floor as he attempted to escape. Brandishing the bloodstained knife, Srinu threatened them and fled on a motorcycle. On Thursday night, Rajeswari lodged a complaint against her maternal uncle, Srinu, and Abdullapurmet police registered a case against him under section 103(1) (murder) of the BNS. Sammakka's body was taken to Osmania General Hospital for a post-mortem examination. The police seized the victim's phone, which had the video recording when she was stabbed. Based on the preliminary investigation, long-standing marital discord appears to have led to the murder. "Sammakka was Srinu's second wife. His first wife, Kalavathi, Sammakka's elder sister, is chronically ill. Srinu has four children with his first wife and two with Sammakka. The preliminary probe revealed that Srinu suspected his wife of infidelity, which was the motive for the murder," said Vanasthalipuram ACP P Kasi Reddy.
