Farmer bids suicide afterland ruling
The incident prompted sub-divisional magistrate (SDM) of Sirauli Gauspur to order a review of the order and ensure the farmer received medical treatment on Monday.
Farmer Lallaram was reportedly upset after the tehsildar issued an order on July 11 in a property dispute case despite the next date for the online hearing scheduled for July 14.
His son alleged the acting tehsildar passed the order without hearing their side.
The move, he said, caused emotional trauma to his father, leading him to consume poison on July 12.
According to complainant Shamsher Verma, his uncle Balgovind passed away on March 6, 2024. Subsequently, a woman named Guna from Gonda, who allegedly changed her Aadhaar details to claim herself as Balgovind's wife Sheetladei alias Guna, filed for inheritance of his property before the tehsildar court. The court ruled in her favour.

Bhiwani teacher death: Haryana govt hands over probe to CBI; family rejects suicide claim, protests continue
NEW DELHI: The Haryana government is going to hand over the probe into the death of a 19-year-old teacher last week in Bhiwani to the CBI following public outrage. The Haryana govt and police administration are committed to ensuring justice for Manisha from Bhiwani and her family, Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said on Wednesday, adding that he has been continuously seeking updates about the case. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "Based on the family's demand, the Haryana govt is going to hand over this case to the CBI for an impartial investigation. Full justice will be ensured in this matter," Saini posted on X in Hindi. Earlier, the Haryana govt on Tuesday ordered the suspension of mobile internet, bulk SMS and dongle services in Bhiwani and Charkhi Dadri districts for 48 hours from 11 am Tuesday amid public outrage over the death of the teacher. Manisha's body was found in a field in Bhiwani on August 13. She had gone missing on August 11 after leaving the school, purportedly to enquire about admission at a nursing college. On Monday, police claimed that the investigations indicated the teenager died by suicide by ingesting poison. However, her father, Sanjay, on Tuesday rejected the finding and refused to cremate the body, demanding "justice." He said, "The administration is saying that my daughter committed suicide. But I can say that she can never commit suicide. I want justice." While protests over the teacher's death continued and politicians waded into the matter, alleging a breakdown of law and order, the emergence of a "suicide note" in the death case on Monday turned the investigation on its head. Bhiwani Superintendent of Police Sumit Kumar said the purported note was found near Manisha's body in a bag, which also contained her Aadhaar card and other documents. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now He also stated that there was proof of Manisha buying insecticide. "In the viscera sample, the presence of insecticide has been confirmed in the body. So, there is self-purchase, there is a suicide note, there is poison in the body," he said. Police also said that the post-mortem reports have ruled out the possibility of any sexual assault. Villagers questioned the latest findings and continued to block a key road in Bhiwani in protest, stating that Manisha's cremation would not take place until "justice" is done. The death caused massive outrage, with people blocking key roads in the district and opposition parties, including the Congress, demanding a CBI probe. The opposition parties criticised the BJP-led state govt, claiming that the alleged murder was proof of a "breakdown of law and order" under the saffron party. Congress leader Bhupinder Singh Hooda said the role of the state govt and the police had been "negligent and irresponsible", and an "unfortunate attempt is being made to prove the whole case as a suicide."

Haryana Police flag 91 bank branches in state where cybercriminals operate ‘mule accounts'
According to an official statement, police teams have initiated phased verification, inspection, and legal action after identifying these branches. Among these, 26 branches are in Gurugram and 24 in Nuh district, officials said on Tuesday. Chandigarh, Aug 19 (PTI) Haryana Police has identified 91 bank branches in the state where suspected 'mule accounts' are being operated by cybercriminals for large-scale transactions, as part of its crackdown against cybercrime. Special teams of the Cyber Crime Wing are conducting a detailed examination of the records of these branches to find out whether negligence or collusion by bank staff is facilitating cybercriminals. 'The teams are scrutinising lapses in KYC compliance, procedural violations in account opening, the role of bank employees, and any sign of negligence,' the statement said. As part of the drive, raids were conducted in Karnal and Yamunanagar districts on Tuesday, during which bank records were thoroughly checked and suspicious accounts examined. In Yamunanagar, teams of the Cyber Crime Wing traced a current account of a firm that was officially shut down in March, yet transactions worth Rs 43 lakh were carried out afterwards. Nationwide, eight complaints have been registered against this account, the statement further said. Another current account was found to have been opened on a false address, and transactions worth Rs 2 crore were made in just three months. This account has 33 complaints filed against it across the country. 'The role of account holders and the bank staff concerned are under scanner… This operation will not remain confined to just two districts. Similar raids will be extended to other suspicious bank branches in the coming days,' the statement said. Haryana Police chief Shatrujeet Kapur on Tuesday said a robust and multi-pronged strategy has been devised to clamp down on cybercrime. This includes strict monitoring of bank branches, rapid analysis of suspicious transactions, regular raids, and ensuring adherence to banking regulations, he said. The DGP emphasised that protecting citizens' hard-earned money from falling into the trap of cybercriminals is a top priority. Alongside police, banks have equal responsibility, and hence accountability of bank officials and cyber nodal officers is being fixed, he stressed. Inspector General, Cyber, Shibas Kabiraj said cybercriminals often pose as bank officials, police officers, government agents, or representatives of reputed companies to make fraudulent calls, send suspicious links, or trick people into downloading suspicious apps. 'In such situations, citizens must never share their OTP, ATM PIN, UPI PIN, passwords, or personal documents like Aadhaar and PAN, nor scan any unknown link or QR code,' he said. Kabiraj said banks and government agencies never ask for money transfers or sensitive information over the phone. 'Citizens must stay alert to emerging scams such as 'digital arrests, where fraudsters intimidate victims over video calls while posing as law enforcement officials, something no genuine police or agency ever does.'
