Accused in Saif Ali Khan attack files new bail plea as trial yet to begin
Over six months after an attack on actor Saif Ali Khan at his Bandra residence, the alleged attacker has sought bail stating that he has been in jail since January and there is no likelihood of the trial against him starting soon. Shariful Islam had filed a bail plea in March but had later withdrawn it after the Mumbai Police filed its chargesheet in the case in April. In the fresh bail plea filed through his lawyers, Vipul Dushing and Ajay Gawali, Islam has claimed that he has not committed the offence and there is no evidence to charge him for attempting to murder Khan at his residence on January 16. He has also said that since the evidence has been collected, there is no requirement to continue keeping him in custody. 'The Applicant states that even if the said witnesses are taken as a gospel truth, without admitting anything on record, for the sake of arguments then also it won't be able to fulfil the ingredient of Section 311 of Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita (robbery or dacoity with attempt to cause death or grievous hurt).' On January 16, the Bandra police registered an FIR against an unknown intruder who entered the residence of Khan and his wife Kareena Kapoor. After a staff member at the house saw the intruder and raised an alarm, Khan came out of his room and questioned the man. The actor was then allegedly attacked with a hexa blade, and suffered injuries on his hand, neck and back. While Khan was rushed to the hospital, the intruder managed to escape. The Mumbai police arrested Islam from Thane on January 19 after tracking him using CCTV footage and other technical evidence. The police have said that Islam is a Bangladeshi national who had entered the country illegally. The court has directed the police to file a reply.

Probe Agency ED Summons Google, Meta In Betting App Case
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued notices to tech giants Google and Meta in connection with its ongoing investigation into alleged money laundering linked to betting applications, official sources said. As part of the probe, the ED has summoned representatives from both companies to appear before its Delhi headquarters on July 21. According to sources, "Google and Meta platforms are promoting betting apps through advertisements and facilitating their reach to users." The agency is examining the role of digital platforms in enabling the promotion of these illegal apps, which are under scrutiny for potential violations of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The move comes days after the ED searched four locations in Mumbai in a major dabba trading and online betting case, seizing unaccounted cash of Rs 3.3 crore, along with luxury watches, jewellery, foreign currency, and luxury vehicles. Cash-counting machines were also discovered during the search operations. The Enforcement Directorate is examining financial and operational activities of 'dabba trading apps' involved in illegal trading and betting platforms, namely VMoney, VM Trading, Standard Trades Ltd, IBull Capital Ltd, LotusBook, 11Starss, and GameBetLeague. As per officials, "online betting platforms operated through white-label apps and ADMIN rights exchanged on a profit-sharing basis." "Hawala operators and fund handlers identified, with digital and financial records, are being examined," the officials, privy to the development, told ANI. As per ED, a Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) investigation initiated in the case on the basis of First Information Report registered at Lasudiya Police Station in Madhya Pradesh's Indore on January 9 this year, invoking Sections 319(2) and 318(4) of Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita (formerly IPC Sections 419 and 420). ED investigations revealed that "Vishal Agnihotri, the beneficial owner of VMoney and 11Starss, acquired ADMIN rights of the LotusBook betting platform on a 5 per cent profit-sharing arrangement. He subsequently transferred these rights to Dhaval Devraj Jain, retaining 0.125 per cent profit while Jain held 4.875 per cent." As per the officials, "Dhaval Jain, along with his associate John States alias Pandey, developed a white-label betting platform and supplied it to Vishal Agnihotri for running "Mayur Padya alias Padya, a hawala operator, handled cash-based fund transfers and payments for the betting operations," added the officials earlier.
