Algerian army kills Mauritanian gold prospectors near Tindouf camps

On Monday, August 11, the Algerian army reportedly opened fire on a group of Mauritanian gold prospectors from the city of Zouerate, near the Tindouf camps. «The provisional toll reports four dead from gunfire and several injured among the gold seekers», a Moroccan source familiar with the incident told Yabiladi. Social media messages reviewed by Yabiladi confirm the fatalities among the Mauritanian nationals. Nearly 24 hours after the operation, Mauritanian media outlets remain silent, despite having been the first to report on drone strikes by the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) targeting gold prospectors. The Polisario press has also chosen not to cover this incident. It is worth noting that this is not an isolated incident. In January 2023, two Mauritanian gold prospectors were killed and a third was injured by gunfire from the Algerian army. Similarly, in May 2021, Algerian military forces killed a Mauritanian while he was searching for gold, a fact acknowledged by authorities in Nouakchott. On that occasion, the government urged its citizens to «avoid these border areas, which are often sensitive military zones, and to primarily ensure they remain within the national territory».

Delhi HC upholds quashing of 'wilful defaulter' tag on Ratul Puri

New Delhi: A division bench of Delhi High Court on Friday upheld a 2023 single judge ruling that set aside Bank of Baroda and Punjab National Bank 's decision to declare businessman Ratul Puri as a wilful defaulter under the 2015 Reserve Bank of India 's Master Circular on Wilful Defaulters. "We are in entire agreement with the single judge that the Master Circular does not envisage categorisation of a borrower as wilful defaulter without the requisite degree of circumspection and examination," the bench of Justices C Hari Shankar and Ajay Digpaul said in its order. The bench said the forensic audit report (FAR) did not verify the source of funds invested in the subsidiaries of Moser Baer India (MBIL), with which Puri was earlier associated. The bank could not have issued show-cause notice to him for wilful default without verifying the source of funds, it observed.

CM: Will protect flat buyers from builder malpractices

Porvorim: Chief minister Pramod Sawant said govt will bring in an ordinance before the next assembly session to protect flat buyers from malpractices by builders and to ensure transparency in the real estate sector. Based on MLAs' suggestions, Sawant said govt will introduce the new regulation based on the Maharashtra Ownership Flats Act (MOFA), 1963. Aldona legislator Carlos Ferreira introduced a calling attention motion in the House on Thursday, stating that many builders in Goa have failed to transfer the land of housing complexes to the respective societies for over 30-40 years. Sawant was urged to make the legislation effective with retrospective effect to address such cases. 'In three months, we will bring all departments related to societies, revenue, law, etc, together to discuss the issue and come up with a solution,' said Sawant. Fatorda MLA Vijai Sardesai said builders did not transfer the land because they sought to hand over the land to another builder so both can benefit through a redevelopment project due to the now enhanced FAR. He said any legislation should enforce a timely agreement, automatic land transfer to society, and should have enforcement provisions. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 11 Foods That Help In Healing Knee Pain Naturally | Zen Life Mag Undo He also said that flat owners suffer as when they finally go to make sale deeds, the registrar applies present rates for deeds, which is much higher than the price at which the flat was purchased. Margao MLA Digambar Kamat said that many of the buildings are now crumbling, but flat owners are caught in a legal tangle due to the builders' actions. 'They have taken possession of the flats based on mere possession certificates. In some cases, the builder has died, etc. There are several unique situations created, and we need to form a committee to address these individual issues,' said Kamat.
