Auto-lifters' gang busted, four nabbed from Punjab
NEW DELHI: Delhi Police has busted an inter-state syndicate of auto-lifters and arrested four Punjab-based receivers of stolen vehicles. They have been identified as Avtar Singh (40), Harpreet Singh (32), Paramdeep (42), and Manpreet (29), officials said on Tuesday. A total of 21 luxury cars were recovered from the accused.
According to police, they studied the pattern of vehicle thefts, including timing and CCTV footage from various cases, which revealed that the accused mostly operate at midnight and primarily target luxury cars. It was found that some receivers from Punjab were active in Delhi, taking stolen cars to Punjab and selling them, especially in border districts.
'On May 7, information was received that Avtar would come in a stolen car with a fake number and go to Punjab. A trap was laid, and the vehicle was intercepted. Avtar and Harpreet were inside the car. Upon checking the engine and chassis numbers, the car was found to have been stolen from Saket,' Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime) Apoorva Gupta said.
Both accused disclosed that they receive stolen cars and sell them in Amritsar and Ludhiana. They used to receive cars from Dashrath and Raj Kumar. The recovered car had also been received from them a few days earlier.

Putin's 'Secret' Daughter Working At Anti-War Art Gallery In Paris, Claims Russian Artist
Last Updated: Elizaveta Krivonogikh appeared in an interview with GQ Russia where she dodged questions about her resemblance to Putin. Elizaveta Krivonogikh, believed to be the 'secret' daughter of Russian President Vladimir Putin, is reportedly working under a new identity at two Parisian art galleries known for showcasing anti-war Russian and Ukrainian art, as per Russian artist and writer Nastya Rodionova. Nastya Rodionova, who fled Russia after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine and was granted asylum in France in 2022, made the claims in a Facebook post in which she wrote that she had heard rumors that Elizaveta Krivonogikh, now going by the name 'Elizaveta Rudnova," was working as a gallery manager at Studio Albatros and L Galerie, both operated by the Paris-based L Association. These galleries are known for hosting exhibitions critical of Russia's war in Ukraine. The artist said the rumor was confirmed by a fellow artist who recognized the gallery manager and matched her description to Elizaveta Krivonogikh. Nastya Rodionova later confronted L Association president Dmitri Dolinski about the woman's identity. Dmitri Dolinski reportedly told her he does not inquire about his staff's family backgrounds and emphasized that 'children are not responsible for their parents," but confirmed the manager's last name was 'Rudnova." Investigative outlet Agentstvo reported last year that 'Elizaveta Olegovna Rudnova" was enrolled in a cultural management program at Paris's ICART university. Travel records obtained by Agentstvo show Nastya Rudnova shares the same birthdate as Elizaveta Krivonogikh. The outlet also noted that the name 'Rudnova" may be a reference to Oleg Rudnov, a late Putin associate whose name has appeared in real estate transactions linked to Krivonogikh's mother, Svetlana Krivonogikh. Proekt, the Russian investigative media outlet banned by the Kremlin, first identified Elizaveta Krivonogikh in 2020, describing her as the daughter of Svetlana Krivonogikh- a millionaire allegedly linked romantically to Vladimir Putin. The outlet cited physical resemblance and circumstantial evidence to claim that Elizaveta Krivonogikh is Vladimir Putin's biological daughter, a claim the Kremlin dismissed as 'unfounded." Elizaveta Krivonogikh later appeared in a veiled interview with GQ Russia under the pseudonym 'Luiza Rozova," where she dodged questions about her resemblance to Putin, saying 'many people look like Mr. Putin." Dolinski later confirmed to independent outlet Meduza that the woman working at the galleries is indeed Svetlana Krivonogikh's daughter. He acknowledged her physical resemblance to past images of Putin's alleged child and said she is completing an internship as part of her studies.

NIA Chargesheets Khalistani Terrorist & Gangster Goldy Brar Over Gurugram Bomb Attacks
Last Updated: The attacks occurred on December 10, 2024, when two crude bombs were thrown outside the Warehouse Club and the Human Club in Gurugram's bustling Sector 29 The National Investigation Agency (NIA) filed a comprehensive chargesheet on Saturday against five individuals, including the notorious designated terrorist Satinderjit Singh, also known as Goldy Brar, in connection with the twin bomb attacks on two prominent clubs in Gurugram, Haryana, in December 2024. The chargesheet, submitted before a special NIA court, identifies Canada-based Goldy Brar and US-based Randeep Singh, also known as Randeep Malik, as the primary conspirators. Both Brar and Malik are currently at large and have been declared absconders. The other three individuals named in the chargesheet—Sachin Taliyan, Ankit, and Bhawish—are currently in custody. The attacks occurred on December 10, 2024, when two crude bombs were thrown outside the Warehouse Club and the Human Club in Gurugram's bustling Sector 29. Although no fatalities occurred, the incident caused panic and minor damage, prompting immediate investigations. The NIA's findings reveal that these bombings were part of a deep-rooted terror conspiracy orchestrated by the banned terror outfit Babbar Khalsa International (BKI). Goldy Brar, a key figure in the Khalistani terror network, along with his associates, allegedly masterminded these attacks. According to the NIA, the primary aim was to incite communal tensions and destabilise peace in Haryana and its neighbouring regions by unleashing violence. The investigation also uncovered that this terror syndicate is engaged in various illegal activities, including extortion, raising terror funds, and procuring explosives, arms, and ammunition. These activities are aimed at promoting terror among the public and undermining India's integrity, security (including economic security), and sovereignty, the agency says. The accused face charges under several stringent sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), the Arms Act, the Explosive Substances Act, and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). The NIA has indicated that further investigations into the broader terror conspiracy, which extends beyond these specific bombings, are ongoing. First Published:
