13 booked for ₹71.5 lakh loan fraud using fake IDs in Gurugram
At least 13 suspects have been booked for allegedly defrauding a private sector bank of ₹71.5 lakh by availing personal loans using forged documents and diverting the funds to Mumbai, police said on Tuesday. According to investigators, the loans were issued between May 2022 and February 2024 from a Sector 14 branch of a reputed private bank. The fraud came to light in February this year after the bank initiated an internal inquiry when several borrowers stopped paying their monthly instalments. A senior police officer said the so-called customers were later found to be non-existent, having used fake documents to pose as employees of well-known automobile and spare parts manufacturing firms in Gurugram. All had submitted forged salary slips, bank statements, and employment records, allegedly showing 4–8 years of service. 'These 13 'ghost' customers had submitted six common residential addresses. However, during verification, none of them were found to reside there,' the officer said. 'There is a strong possibility that either some bank officials have connived with the suspect to clear the loans or they didn't carry out any physical verification of the addresses and loans were disbursed only on the basis of documents to meet target pressures,' he added. Police further revealed that loan proceeds from 10 customers were transferred to a Mumbai-based logistics firm, while the remaining three transferred funds directly into the firm owner's account immediately after loan disbursal. Sandeep Kumar, public relations officer of Gurugram police, said the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) is investigating. 'They will arrest the suspects soon on the basis of the evidence,' he added. Based on a complaint filed on March 3 by the bank's regional officer, an FIR was registered Monday at Sector 14 police station under IPC sections 120B, 420, 467, 468, and 471. .

Seabed mapping and recovery efforts underway after MSC Elsa 3 sinks off Kerala coast
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: With many cargo containers still unaccounted for following the sinking of cargo vessel MSC Elsa 3 off the Kerala coast, and rising concerns over oil pollution and the widespread dispersal of plastic pellets, the Directorate General (DG) of Shipping has launched a major recovery operation. As part of the effort, the DG Shipping will soon conduct comprehensive seabed mapping using a multi-beam survey system to locate missing containers and the sunken vessel. The operation is also aimed at mitigating marine ecological risks stemming from the incident. The cost of the recovery will be borne by the vessel's owner, the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), which has appointed US-based firm T&T Salvage to carry out container recovery, oil removal, and pollution control measures. According to sources, T&T Salvage is assembling a team of divers, including saturation divers from South Africa, to aid the underwater retrieval of containers. The Water Lily, an emergency tow vessel, is currently being equipped with a multi-beam survey system for detailed seabed mapping. In addition, the vessel SEAMAC III will assist in diving operations.

In Trump's America, Pride marches are losing financial support
The organizer of this year's San Francisco Pride didn't expect rejection when she contacted sponsors, but amid US President Donald Trump's anti-diversity offensive, several longtime backers have withdrawn their support. "It was quite frightening," said Suzanne Ford, executive director of the California-based group which is among America's most influential gay rights organizations. "In about a week and a half period, several corporations came back and said 'We're not sponsoring this year,'" she told AFP. In total, Ford's group faced a $300,000 budget hole, with longstanding partnerships suddenly unwilling to fill it ahead of the late June festivities. "It's disheartening," Ford said. One of Pride's major partners, the brewer Anheuser-Busch, has withdrawn, according to the organization. The brewing company did not respond to requests from AFP. The lack of sponsorships is "newsworthy for sure," noted Eve Keller, co-president of the USA Prides network of nearly 200 march organizations nationwide. Several US companies have opted to stop financially supporting organized events, especially those in June, designated as LGBTQ Pride Month. Pride organizations are reluctant to call them out, however, for fear of cutting ties. "Some are still talking with us," Ford said. "We hope they return." In some cities where 2025 Pride marches have already occurred, groups proceeded with "tighter" budgets, according to Keller. "They just didn't have headliners could not hire the biggest, best band," she added, although for her, the main focus in 2025 was to ensure the safety of participants. In San Francisco, the companies all pointed to "budgetary reasons" for scaling back their contributions, said Ford. But "I think you could read between the lines," she added. "No one wanted to be on record saying anything, you know, that would hurt them with the administration or with people that support the administration." Since returning to the White House in January, Republican billionaire Trump has led a crusade against programs promoting diversity, equity and inclusion . Companies that implement such policies are threatened with prosecution, and several major brands, including Meta, Target and McDonald's, have either abolished their DEI programs or drastically reduced them. The so-called "anti-woke" pressure campaign comes as US capital Washington hosts WorldPride, a global event for LGBTQ rights, culminating in a major parade this weekend. June Crenshaw, one of the rally's organizers, estimates she suffered "about a 20, 25 percent reduction" in business partnership and support. "So we've had to look at other ways in which to finance programming, etc, really leaning on the community and individual donations," she said. WorldPride organizers also decided to turn away from their "long and strong partnership" with the Kennedy Center after President Trump seized the reins of Washington's renowned cultural institution, Crenshaw added. According to Bob Witeck, a communications consultant on LGBTQ topics for major brands, companies fear that taking part in these events could expose them to "visible risk" during a sensitive political period and "put themselves in harm's way needlessly." But several firms "are still engaged," he stressed, including "through the nonprofits they serve." San Francisco's Ford noted that "pinkwashing" the practice of superficially promoting LGBTQ rights is no longer fashionable. They "just want to do the right thing." eml-mlm Meta TARGET
