Explosions heard in THESE Indian cities as Pakistan launches fresh attack amid rising tensions
A day after Pakistan used around 300 to 400 drones to attack India in an attempt to infiltrate 36 locations, explosions were heard across all the border states, including Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab and Rajasthan on Friday.
In all these places, blackouts have been imposed, and sirens are continuously being heard as Pakistani drones are being intercepted and defused by the Indian Armed Forces.
The authorities have urged people to remain in their houses or at safe places for a few hours, as the escalation from Pakistan has intensified.
According to details pouring in, one Pakistani drone has hit a residential area in Firozpur and injured a family. They have been rushed to hospital for further treatment.
Speaking more about the details, SSP Ferozepur, Bhupinder Singh Sidhu said, as quoted by ANI, "We received information about 3 people being injured. They have burn injuries. Doctors will treat them. Most of the drones have been neutralised by the army..."
Dr Kamal Bagi, treating the injured, said, "Due to drone-bomb, three people got injured. Out of these, the condition of a woman is critical, she has suffered severe burns. The other two have lesser burns. We have immediately started their treatment. They are from the same family."

‘Spy' YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra's judicial remand extended by fortnight
A Hisar court on Monday extended the judicial custody of YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra, who is under investigation for alleged espionage links with Pakistan, by a fortnight. The next date of hearing is June 23. On May 26, Jyoti was sent to 14-day judicial custody by the court. Her lawyer, Kumar Mukesh, said Jyoti joined court proceedings virtually and her judicial custody was extended by 14 days. 'We will file for regular bail soon,' he said. According to prison officials, Jyoti spends most of the day reading books in the jail library. Earlier, Hisar police spokesman Vikas Kumar said the forensic report of Jyoti's mobile phones had revealed crucial evidence. 'Police have recovered over 12TB of digital data from her three phones and a laptop. The forensic analysis shows one-on-one chats with four individuals categorised as Pakistani intelligence operatives, suspected money trails, and evidence of VIP treatment received during her trip to Pakistan. We are examining the digital data,' the spokesman said. Travel blogger Jyoti, 33, a resident of Hisar, was arrested on May 16 for allegedly sharing sensitive information with Pakistani operatives. The next day, she was produced before a local court, which sent her in five-day police custody. As her remand ended on May 21, she was produced in court the next day and sent to four-day police remand. She has been booked under Sections 3 and 5 of the Official Secrets Act and Section 152 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

Wife's Affair Led To Meghalaya Honeymoon Murder, Boyfriend Involved: Cops
As the mystery deepens over the murder of an Indore man during his honeymoon in Meghalaya, the police now claim that the victim's wife had an extramarital affair that allegedly drove her to hire contract killers to eliminate her husband. Raja Raghuvanshi, 29, and his newly married wife Sonam, 24, had gone missing on May 23. A week later, Raja's body was found in a gorge. A search was conducted for Sonam, who eventually turned up at her hometown a week later. Meghalaya cops believe she was in an extramarital affair that led to Raja's murder. She orchestrated the murder in connivance with her boyfriend, Raj Kushwaha, and surrendered under pressure on June 8, according to them. Both were later arrested. Not much is known about Raj Kushwaha from official channels, but the victim's family has broken its silence on this person. Raj was Sonam's employee, and they would speak on the phone a lot, claimed Vipul Raghuvanshi, Raja Raghuvanshi's brother. "I've never seen Raj Kushwaha; I have just heard his name. Sonam can be involved in this," he told ANI. The couple had initially planned to visit the Kamakhya temple in Guwahati, he claimed, raising doubts over the sudden change in plan that landed them in neighbouring Meghalaya. "We don't know which of the two planned their visit to Meghalaya. They did not book any return tickets," he added. Sonam being alive has also raised suspicion among the family members of Raja Raghuvanshi. Sachin, another brother of the victim, asked, "Sonam being found alive raises questions. Who were the other people who killed Raja?" Raja and Sonam got married on May 11. They left for their honeymoon on May 20. A day later, the couple were in Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya, nestled in the lap of lush peaks. On May 23, they went missing and their scooty was found abandoned nearby. The husband's body was found on June 2 with evidence that he was hacked to death with a machete. Sonam, however, remained untraceable until June 8. Last night, she reached Ghazipur, her hometown, and contacted her brother. She was swooped away by the cops minutes later, according to multiple accounts by the UP Police and her family. Uttar Pradesh police claimed they found Sonam distraught and unwell at a dhaba in Nandganj, while Meghalaya cops asserted she "voluntarily surrendered" at the police station. Three others, including two from Indore and one from Lalipur in Uttar Pradesh," said Meghalaya police. The difference in police versions is also reflected in the statements of the two families. Sonam's family came out in her support and outright denied that she could murder her husband. "She cannot do this. They got married with the consent of both families. My daughter came to a dhaba in Ghazipur last night and called her brother. Police went to the dhaba and she was taken from there," said Devi Singh, Sonam's father.

Head Constable Narasimharaju protested the suspension of Bengaluru's Police Commissioner after a stampede. The stampede near Chinnaswamy Stadium resulted in 11 deaths. Narasimharaju fears government action for his protest. He admitted protesting in uniform was against protocol. Chief Minister Siddaramiah stated the suspensions were due to inadequate arrangements. He noted BJP and JDS allegations were politically motivated. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Head Constable Narasimharaju, posted at Madiwala police station in Bengaluru, who staged a solo protest against the suspension of the city's Police Commissioner and other officials, is now worried about possible action the government may take against a telephonic interview with ANI, he said, "This was not something we expected after the stampede incident, which took place near Chinnaswamy stadium in which 11 people died and many were injured, which made me emotional, and that is why I staged to protest against the decision made by the Karnataka Government. Whenever this kind of incident happens, there is an option to transfer the officers, but suspending officers, including the police commissioner of Bengaluru, in fact brings the morale of the department and the employees down."Narasimharaju, who holds a Master's degree (MA, and is from Pavagada, lives with his mother and family. He is now worried about the action the police department or government might take against told ANI, "I have only one last option, which is to fight this legally. I am waiting for a call from my DCP madam. Once she calls, I will go and explain my feelings to her. I'm hopeful she will respond positively. I've already received a notice and explained my emotions to my senior officers. Yes, I was emotional, and I admit I shouldn't have protested in uniform, as it goes against protocol. But I got emotional because after working long hours without sleep, seeing someone get suspended affects the morale of others in the department." Siddaramiah on Sunday said that the concerned police officers have been suspended as arrangements were not adequate at Chinnaswamy said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Janata Dal (Secular) (JDS) are making politically motivated allegations in the stampede case that took place during the RCB celebrations at Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium."The BJP is making politically motivated allegations. Based on the information that appears to be available regarding the incident, the government has taken action against the police concerned," CM Siddaramaiah said that a judicial inquiry has been ordered as per the demand of the BJP and JDS. Similarly, action has been taken against the police. He said that the government personnel and administration departments had been given conditional permission to organise the the Bengaluru stampede that claimed 11 lives and left many injured, the Karnataka Government on June 5 suspended top police officials, including Bengaluru commissioner B Dayananda and formed a one-man commission under a retired High Court Judge to probe the incident.
