BJP Kerala secy meets Chhattisgarh CM Sai, dy CM Sharma over nuns' arrest
1 2 Raipur: Four days after arrest of two Catholic nuns in Chhattisgarh on charges of human trafficking and attempted religious conversion of three tribal girls, Kerala BJP general secretary Anoop Antony Joseph on Tuesday held a closed-door meeting with CM Vishnu Deo Sai and deputy CM, who is also the home minister, Vijay Sharma, on the issue. He also met the nuns, who are now in judicial custody. Both the arrested nuns hail from Kerala. Nuns Preethi Merry and Vandana Francis, along with Sukaman Mandavi – the person who got the girls to Durg railway station -- were arrested from the station on July 25 on a complaint filed by a local Bajrang Dal worker who accused them of trafficking the girls to another state and indulging in forced religious conversion. Later, a delegation including Congress MPs Benny Behanan from Chalakudy and K Francis George from Kottayam, RSP MP NK Premachandran from Kollam and Kerala legislative assembly member Roshi M John met the CM and deputy CM. Congress MP from Koraput constituency in Odisha, Saptagiri Ulaka, was also a part of the delegation. After meeting the delegation, Sai said Chhattisgarh is a peace-loving state that believes in harmony and coexistence. "People of all religions live here with mutual respect and brotherhood," he said. Reassuring the delegation, CM stated that the matter is being investigated as per due judicial process. "Law is taking its course, there is no interference," he added, underlining the "safety and dignity of the state's daughters and citizens." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Discover how to go from draft to done in a few clicks—not a few hours. Grammarly Install Now Undo Talking to media persons, deputy CM Vijay Sharma said that based on statements recorded by GRP, an FIR was lodged in the case, that happened in Narayanpur district. "I met Anoop Antony Joseph and he briefed me with the information that he had. Everything is being done legally, and the case is in court. There have been instances in the past where women from Narayanpur have been trafficked in a similar manner. The matter is under investigation," Sharma said. There was drama at the jail as the Congress MPs were asked to wait and were allowed to meet the nuns only after Joesph, along with state BJP leaders, met them. They were asked to wait by the jail authorities for almost one and half hours to meet the nuns. The meeting took place only after the intervention of Congress leader and former Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel. Talking to reporters outside the jail premises, Premchandran claimed that the nuns were innocent, and it was a deliberate attack on them. "We were allotted time to meet the nuns at 12.30pm, but we were asked to wait, and the meeting took place only after the BJP delegation met them. We staged a demonstration outside the jail," Premchandran said. He said that he couldn't disclose the details of the meeting with nuns. The three young girls were being taken for jobs and the nuns had come to receive them at the railway station. Then some Bajrang Dal people arrived and assaulted them, he alleged.

Security guard caught stealing IPL jerseys worth INR 6.52 lakh from BCCI office on CCTV; arrested
A security manager in his 40s at Mumbai's iconic Wankhede Stadium was arrested for allegedly stealing 261 IPL 2025 jerseys worth ₹6.52 lakh from the BCCI office premises, in a bizarre case that only came to light after an internal board audit flagged missing inventory. Representational image of sports jerseys The accused, identified as Farooque Aslam Khan, reportedly spirited away an entire carton of jerseys from a storeroom located within the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) office at Wankhede, Churchgate. According to police, each jersey was worth around ₹2,500, and the total value of the stolen merchandise amounts to over six and a half lakh rupees. An audit conducted by BCCI officials earlier this month revealed discrepancies in jersey stock. Upon checking CCTV footage, staffers spotted Khan carrying a large cardboard box out of the storeroom on June 13 — raising immediate suspicion. A complaint was subsequently filed at the Marine Drive police station on July 17. Police investigations revealed that Khan had sold the stolen jerseys to an online dealer based in Haryana, whom he had contacted via social media. The guard reportedly told the dealer that the jerseys were being offloaded as part of a "stock clearance sale" due to renovation work at the BCCI office. 'The dealer claims he had no idea the jerseys were stolen,' said a police official involved in the investigation. So far, only 50 of the 261 jerseys have been recovered. During questioning, Khan confessed to using the money earned from the sale to fund his growing addiction to online gambling. 'He received the payment directly into his bank account and claims to have lost it all on gambling platforms,' the officer added, noting that bank records are being reviewed to corroborate this claim. It is unclear whether the stolen jerseys, which represented multiple teams, were intended for official use by IPL players or for public merchandise distribution. The police have summoned the Haryana-based dealer for further inquiry, and the investigation remains ongoing. Khan, who was arrested a few days ago after being booked under relevant sections for theft and criminal breach of trust, is currently out on bail. Meanwhile, BCCI has not issued an official comment but is said to be reviewing its internal security protocols following the incident.

Agra: A court in Mathura has sentenced a 21-year-old man to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment (RI) for abducting and raping a 14-year-old Class 9 student when she was on her way to school in July last year. The survivor's statement played a key role in nailing the convict, who is also her uncle. Special public prosecutor Alka Upmanu said the crime took place on July 5, 2024, when the girl was abducted and violated at a hotel in Rajasthan's Alwar district. An FIR was subsequently registered against the accused under BNS sections 137 (2) (kidnapping) and 65 (1) (rape) and the Pocso Act following a complaint by the girl's father. The girl was rescued by Rajasthan Police. In her statement, the survivor said, "I left home in the morning for school in Mathura. My uncle, who lives in the neighbourhood, insisted that I go with him on his bike. He then took me at knife-point to a place in Alwar, Rajasthan, where I was sexually assaulted on July 5..." A report submitted by a medical officer in court confirmed that she was sexually assaulted. Following a probe, the investigation officer, inspector Arvind Kumar Nirval, filed a chargesheet in Oct 2024, along with the testimony of five people and the medical report. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like TV providers are furious: this gadget gives you access to all channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo During the trial, the accused, in his defence, said that "he and the minor were involved in a romantic relationship", an argument which the court rejected.
