The officials seized liquor bottles from the venue. Some guests who attended the birthday party were tested for drugs, and one individual tested positive for consumption of ganja. He was booked under the NDPS Act.
According to officials, at around 1:30 am, the Chevella police received a complaint from locals about loud music at Tripura Resort. A police team reached the scene and discovered that singer Mangli, also known as Satyavati, was celebrating her birthday with family and friends.
"To use a DJ sound system at any event, organisers must obtain permission from the police. Similarly, if liquor is being supplied, permission from the excise department is required. They had neither," Chevella inspector M Bhupal Sridhar said.
According to police, 25 members attended the party, including Mangli's friend and actor Divi Vadthya. The party was arranged by Mangli's manager, Megharaj. Apart from Mangli and her manager, police booked cases against Tripura Resort assistant general manager M Shiva Rama Krishna, Mangli's associate-cum-guest K Damodhar Reddy under BNS and Excise Act. All the accused were issued notices to appear for questioning.

FIR against doctor who posed as cardiologist, 5 others

Faridabad: Nearly a month after the complaint was filed, police on Tuesday registered an FIR against the city doctor who was allegedly masquerading as a cardiologist and performed around 50 heart procedures, including critical surgeries, for seven months before the fraud was called out. The FIR also names five officials of the heart care centre at BK Civil Hospital, where the doctor -- Pankaj Mohan Sharma – was working as a cardiologist. It includes Dr N Pratap Kumar, CMD of Mediterina Hospital, which runs the heart care centre at the civil hospital in a public-private partnership mode. Others are Dalip Nayyar, head of corporate HR at the facility; Ajay Sharma, head of the Haryana centre; Piyush Srivastava, financial manager; and Mandip, centre head. The accused, Faridabad police spokesperson Yashpal Singh said on Thursday, have been charged under sections 125 (endangering life or personal safety), 318(4) (cheating), 319 (cheating by personation), 336 (3) (forgery), 338 (forgery of valuable security), 340 (forged documents or electronic records) and 61 (criminal conspiracy) of BNS.

"Investigation is ongoing," the spokesperson said. Asked about the delay, police said they were waiting for a detailed report and documents linked to Dr Sharma from the civil surgeon's office before proceeding with the FIR. According to the FIR, hospital officials were aware that Sharma, though a qualified doctor, was not authorised to perform surgeries, but they permitted him to do so anyway. The case came to police on April 11, when lawyer and activist Sanjay Gupta filed a complaint that Dr Pankaj Sharma had forged documents to show that he had a DNB (Diplomate of National Board) in cardiology, a degree equivalent to that of an MD. "The hospital management continued to employ an unqualified and fraudulent doctor who lacks any degree or recognised specialisation in cardiology. Dr Sharma falsely claimed qualifications of MD and DNB (cardiology)," Gupta said in the complaint. He also alleged in the complaint that Dr Sharma had killed three patients. After preliminary investigation, police also found that Dr Sharma was fraudulently using the identity and registration number of a legitimate practising cardiologist in the city – Dr Pankaj Mohan. It turned out that Dr Mohan got whiff of the fraud months before the police complaint. In Jan this year, he had approached the Indian Medical Association and accused Dr Sharma of illegally using his credentials. Dr Mohan also issued a legal notice to Dr Sharma. The MBBS doctor, who was hired by Mediterina Hospital in July 2024, stopped reporting to the heart care centre from Feb after he was asked to produce his medical degree. "Many patients began enquiring about him and eventually visited the real Dr Pankaj Mohan. When Dr Mohan clarified that he had never worked at the heart centre, the allegations became obvious," a doctor at BK Civil Hospital told TOI.

Bengaluru man prints fake notes during week-long stay in hotel, lands in police net

Bengaluru: When 23-year-old Krish Mali, son of a textile businessman, walked out of his house after a fight with his parents, he was too angry to consider how long he could survive on his own. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now When it eventually hit him that his needs far outstripped the capacity of his wallet, he decided to get creative and make money — literally. Mali, a resident of Thoppa Mudaliyar Street in Shivajinagar, has now landed in police net for printing counterfeit notes while renting a hotel room in Tasker Town from June 1 to 7. According to the complaint filed by Hotel High Street manager Mohammed Sarifuddin with Commercial Street police, Mali had booked a room for two days initially. He later extended the booking twice, first online and then offline for the last two days. While checking out around 1pm on June 7, he paid Rs 3,000 in cash, producing six notes of Rs 500 face value at the reception. However, in the early hours of the same day, some pourakarmikas working with BBMP had found a few counterfeit notes when they picked up garbage from the hotel. They informed the hotel management, which confirmed the notes were fake but had no idea who had disposed of them. After Mali checked out, the hotel staff grew suspicious and examined the notes he had given — and voila, they proved to be counterfeit. Sarifuddin and a few other hotel staff went to the room Mali had occupied and found a few notes in the dustbin. Subsequently, Sarifuddin lodged a police complaint, handing over five fake notes as evidence. Paper sheets used to print the counterfeit notes were also found in the room. A senior cop said Mali was nabbed from the address on his Aadhaar card, which he had furnished when checking into the hotel. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now During interrogation, he is said to have confessed that he walked out of his house after a fight over a trivial matter. He then rented the hotel room, smuggled in a printer and scanner inside a bag, and made copies of a real Rs 500 note. While he managed to scan, print and cut some notes to the actual size, a few came out poorly and were tossed in the bin. The youth has been arrested and remanded in judicial custody. A case has been registered under BNS Sections 179 (using as genuine, forged or counterfeit coin, govt stamp, currency notes or banknotes), 180 (possession of forged or counterfeit coin, govt stamp, currency notes or banknotes), 182 (making or using documents resembling currency notes or banknotes), and 318 (cheating). Police are probing to see if Mali had paid in counterfeit notes at any other place.
