Asked to pay, SI thrashes ice-cream vendor, suspended
Jhansi: SSP on Tuesday suspended a traffic sub-inspector after a video went viral in which he was seen severely thrashing an ice-cream vendor because the ice-cream vendor demanded money from the police official for the two ice-creams he had bought. Blood was also seen oozing from the victim's ears.
The incident took place near Rajgarh in the Prem Nagar police station area. On Tuesday, the victim, Rohit, who is in his teens and sells ice-cream on a company e-rickshaw, was taking his sister Kranti to her college for her annual BSc exam on the same vehicle.
Midway, he was stopped by traffic sub-inspector Ram Niwas and a traffic constable. The duo asked for the licence and the papers of the vehicle, to which Rohit pleaded that it was a company-owned vehicle and asked the S-I to talk to the company officials for the vehicle papers.
According to Rohit, the S-I asked for two ice-creams, and when Rohit demanded payment, he got furious and started thrashing him, which led to blood oozing from his ears. A video of the thrashing, recovered from the nearby CCTV, went viral, showing the police official thrashing the boy.

Hearing the commotion, the passersby stopped, and later the victim's parents arrived, protesting the S-I's misdeed. Some people were also heard saying that the S-I was seen thrashing a motorcyclist a couple of days ago. As a result, Kranti could not reach the examination centre and had to miss her exam.
Later, CO (Traffic) Asma Vaqar arrived to handle the situation. Based on her preliminary reports, SSP BBGTS Murthy suspended S-I Ram Niwas and ordered an enquiry against him. "We are conducting a detailed enquiry of the whole incident, and based on the report, further action will be taken," Asma said.
Around a month ago, another video of Ram Niwas had gone viral from a different location where a motorcyclist was levelling serious allegations against him.

ED arrests ex-Haryana MLA,aide in money laundering case
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday (June 11, 2025) said it has arrested a former MLA and a former Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP) officer in an alleged money laundering case here. Ram Niwas and Sunil Kumar Bansal were arrested on June 9, under the provisions of Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002 in the case of misappropriation of public funds in HSVP (formerly known as the Haryana Urban Development Authority) bank accounts, a statement from the agency said. Ram Niwas was a member of the Haryana Legislative Assembly from 2019 to 2024. He represented the Narwana constituency after he won elections on a Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) ticket. He was also a former official of the HSVP. The ED initiated the investigation on the basis of FIR registered at Panchkula by Haryana Police against unknown persons, said the statement. This case was registered on a complaint by the Drawing and Disbursing Officer of HSVP, in which it was alleged that a 'fraud and financial loss' was committed through a bank account of HSVP, it added. As per the FIR, between 2015-2019, debit transactions amounting approximately Rs. 70 crore were repeatedly released in favour of some particular parties for no apparent reason from the said bank account of HSVP, causing a loss of Rs 70 Crore to HSVP. An internal enquiry by the HSVP revealed that no such bank account was reflected in the cash branch or IT wing of HSVP, meaning that HSVP was 'defrauded' by Sunil Kumar Bansal and Ram Niwas in a clandestine manner,' the ED statement said. Following their arrest, both the accused were presented before the Additional District and Sessions Court at Panchkula. They were remanded to five days' Enforcement Directorate custody..

An external affairs ministry spokesman, however, would not confirm a report that China had offered to reopen India's consulates in Lhasa and Shanghai in exchange for reopening the Chinese consulates in Calcutta and Bombay. The proposals that China has made may not be in the context of the ongoing dialogue on the still unsettled Sino-Indian border issue.
