PAC jawan shoots self in Sonbhadra
The jawan,
Sandeep Singh
(26), a native of Ballia, was taken to the community health centre (CHC), where doctors pronounced him dead.
Sandeep was stationed at 39th Battalion in Mirzapur and returned to Amwar PAC camp in Sonbhadra on Aug 5 after completing VVIP duty in Varanasi.
Around 3.55am, just five minutes before his shift was about to end, he woke up his colleague, Piyush Paswan, informing him that it was time for his duty.
Sandeep then returned to his seat and shot himself. Sandeep's father Vinod Kumar, who works as a clerk at a college in Ballia, recounted his last conversation with his son. He said that Sandeep called him at 9pm, mentioning his duty hours and added that he was going to have dinner.
Sandeep's father, uncles Anoop Singh and Chandra Bhan, and younger brother Pradeep, reached Sonbhadra and expressed disbelief over Sandeep's action.

Slapped, punched and bitten: The horrific assault of a 15-month-old inside a Noida daycare centre
A 15-month-old girl was brutally assaulted by a nanny at a Noida daycare, with the incident caught on CCTV. The daycare owner allegedly did nothing to intervene. Police have arrested the nanny read more The parents also allege that despite their daughter's cries, the daycare owner, Charu, made no attempt to help or protect her. Image for Representation A 15-month-old girl was brutally assaulted by a nanny at a daycare in Noida's Sector 137, in an incident that has left parents across the city horrified and questioning the safety of childcare facilities. The assault, which was caught on CCTV, shows the toddler being slapped, bitten, dropped to the ground twice or thrice, and beaten with a plastic bat. Shockingly, the daycare owner was allegedly present but did nothing to intervene. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Here's what happened The shocking assault at Noida daycare Monica and Sandeep Kumar, parents of the 15-month-old girl, had been sending their daughter to the daycare in Sector 137 since May 21. Sandeep, who works in the IT department of a UK-based multinational company, had made sure to check the safety arrangements himself before enrolling her, including confirming that five CCTV cameras were installed across the premises. The daycare, run by the residents' association, is one of many such facilities operating in residential complexes across Delhi NCR. Charu, the daycare's owner, personally assured the couple of their child's safety. 'Before sending our daughter, we had checked all safety measures at the daycare. There were five CCTV cameras in all rooms, the hall, and kitchen areas. The owner assured us during admission that it's the daycare's responsibility to keep every child safe,' Sandeep told The Times of India. But on Monday, when Monica went to pick up her daughter, something felt wrong. The toddler was crying uncontrollably and seemed unusually distressed. Later, while changing her clothes, Monica spotted circular marks on both of her thighs. 'My wife asked the teachers about the bite marks, but was told she had some infection from home. She ran to a doctor immediately. The doctor confirmed it wasn't an infection, but marks of human teeth. He also told my wife that it appeared our daughter had been tortured because she was visibly scared. My wife came home and informed me. I left office without any delay,' Sandeep recalled. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD When they confronted the daycare owner, she flatly denied that any abuse had occurred. The couple requested CCTV footage to verify what had happened, but getting access proved to be an uphill battle. According to The Times of India, the staff claimed there were 'technical issues,' missing applications, and even snapped wires that delayed them from handing over the footage. The parents say the daycare kept stalling for four days until police intervened on Thursday. When the couple finally saw the recordings, they were horrified. The footage showed the attendant, Sonali, a teenager from Shahdara village, mercilessly punching the child, pushing her off a swing, dropping her onto the floor, beating her with a plastic bat, and even inserting a pencil into her mouth. A horrific video from a daycare in Noida has surfaced, showing a woman worker hitting and biting a 15-month-old toddler. A case against her was registered, and she was arrested. — Vani Mehrotra (@vani_mehrotra) August 11, 2025 STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The parents also allege that despite their daughter's cries, the daycare head, Charu, made no attempt to help or protect her. Instead, they claim both the maid and the owner hurled abusive language and issued threats when confronted. What's next? Following the parents' complaint, police from Noida's Sector-142 station registered a case, conducted a medical examination of the toddler, and arrested the accused maid. Charges have been filed under sections 115(2) (voluntarily causing hurt), 351(2) (criminal intimidation), and 352 (intentional insult with intent to provoke a breach of peace) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Following the parents' complaint, police from Noida's Sector-142 station registered a case, conducted a medical examination of the toddler, and arrested the accused maid. File image/PTI In a disturbing twist, Sandeep told NDTV that another family in the same residential complex has now come forward, claiming their child also suffered abuse at the daycare. They, too, plan to file a police complaint. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'I want action against the daycare owner and the attendant so that such an incident does not happen with another child. These were very tough days. I could not go to work. My wife could not sleep,' Sandeep said, describing the emotional toll of the ordeal. With input from agencies

UP Man Celebrates Rakhi, Then Kills Sister, Days After Murdering Her Lover
Jhansi (UP): A man, vexed with her 18-year-old sister's affair with a man, allegedly killed her after celebrating Raksha Bandhan in the Garautha area here, police on Sunday said. The body of Kumari Sahodar alias Putti was found on Sunday with a shaved head near Dada Maharaj platform in a deserted area of Chandrapura village, police said. Putti's brother, Arvind, and a friend of his, Prakash Prajapati, both aged around 25, have been detained in connection with the murder. The killing came on the heels of another murder – Putti's lover's. On August 7, the body of 19-year-old Vishal, a native of Lahchura, was found dumped in Gudha village. According to police, four months ago, Putti and Vishal ran away from home, but were persuaded to return. A mutual settlement was struck between the two families, and things cooled off for a while. However, soon, both lovers started meeting. This reigniting of the affair was not to the liking of Arvind, who had returned to the village from Pune a few days ago. After his return, police said, he roped in Prakash Prajapati to kill both of them. On the morning of August 7, the two took away Vishal on the pretext of getting him a job and killed him, police said. Both were booked by the police in connection with the murder on the complaint of Vishal's father, Halkeram. While the investigation was still taking off in that case, on Saturday, Arvind took Putti on the pretext of getting her medicine and killed her as well, according to police.

Man Carries Wife's Body Tied To Motorcycle After Fatal Accident In Nagpur, Video Goes Viral
Last Updated: A video showing Amit transporting his wife's body tied to his motorcycle has gone viral on social media. A disturbing video has emerged from Nagpur, which shows a man carrying the body of his deceased wife tied to a motorcycle after allegedly receiving no help from passersby. The incident took place on Sunday at nearly 12 p.m. on the Nagpur-Jabalpur National Highway near the Morfata area under the Deolapar police jurisdiction. The woman identified as Gyarsi Amit Yadav, died on the spot after being hit by a speeding truck. Her husband, Amit Yadav, was left helpless after repeated pleas for assistance were ignored. After failing to get any help to transport the body, a desperate Amit decided to tie his wife's body to his two-wheeler and carry it back to their native village in Madhya Pradesh. The couple hailed from Seoni district in Madhya Pradesh, but had been living for the past 10 years in Lonara, near Koradi, Nagpur. The accident took place on Raksha Bandhan, Sunday, when Amit and his wife were travelling by motorcycle from Lonara to Karanpur via Deolapar. A video showing Amit transporting his wife's body tied to his motorcycle has gone viral on social media. While no one came for help initially, several people later tried to stop him once they saw him carrying the body on the motorcycle. Fearing confrontation or trouble, he refused to stop. The highway police, who reportedly filmed the viral video, initially signaled him to halt, but he continued riding. He was eventually stopped some distance ahead. The police took custody of the woman's body and sent it for postmortem to Nagpur's Mayo Hospital. The incident has sparked outrage and raised serious questions about the lack of empathy and emergency response in such tragic situations. view comments First Published: August 11, 2025, 09:18 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
