Stolen rifles recovered from field
Madhubani: Two rifles stolen from the home guard room in Khutauna Anchal on Saturday evening were recovered on Friday morning, abandoned in a field around 500 metres south of the block headquarters.
Rekha Devi, a resident of a nearby village, noticed the rifles while disposing of ash in her field as part of her daily routine. She alerted local villagers, one of whom informed Nitish Kumar, the officer-in-charge at Khutauna police station.

A dog squad from the Rajnagar SSB and a forensic team from Madhubani's FSL were also called in. The dog squad began tracking from the site while the forensic team conducted a detailed examination of the rifles.
Phulparas SDPO Sudhir Kumar said a technical team had also been called to support the ongoing investigation. He added that the police were committed to uncovering all aspects of the incident, from the theft to the rifles' recovery, and ensuring those responsible are brought to justice.

Court cites prosecution lapses, acquits builder in civic officials assault case
Thane: A sessions court in Thane district has acquitted a builder of assaulting and threatening civic officials, pointing to lapses in the prosecution's case, including the failure to examine the primary witnesses. In his order of June 3, a copy of which was made available on Friday, additional sessions judge G T Pawar dropped all charges against Vinod Gangasahay Trivedi. The prosecution stated that Trivedi had obstructed a team of the Mira Bhayandar Municipal Corporation photographing an under-construction building in 2015. He threatened the official and even assaulted one of them. Trivedi also snatched the camera from one of the officials and deleted the photos, the prosecution said. Judge Pawar said the individuals who were the direct subjects of the alleged acts were never brought to the witness box. The court noted that the two officials who testified, including the informant, were not the direct victims of the alleged criminal force. The court also observed that the police did not recover the camera. "...the prosecution has failed to prove the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubts," said judge Pawar, acquitting Trivedi of all charges. pti Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Eid wishes , messages , and quotes !
