4 pose as cops, steal Rs 5.5L from Turkmen woman in Gurgaon for treatment
Gurgaon: A 62-year-old woman from Turkmenistan — who was in the city to receive medical treatment at a hospital — was robbed of cash worth approximately Rs 5.5 lakh by four men posing as police officers at HUDA Market in Sector 52 on Saturday night. "Everything happened so quickly, she couldn't understand what was going on and the language barrier made it worse," translator Shoaib Khan through whom a complaint was filed at Sector 53 police station told TOI. Alimova from Lebap Velayat city in Turkmenistan, who stays at a guest house in Sector 52 along with her daughter Allakova, had arrived in the city on June 11 for treatment of a knee and rib condition at Artemis Hospital. Around 8.30pm on Saturday, the two were on an evening walk near the market when a small white car stopped in front of them. One person among the four accused stepped out of the car and introduced themselves as police officers. According to the complaint, the men claimed they were conducting routine checks and demanded to inspect their belongings searching for contraband articles. While engaging the mother and daughter in conversation, the suspects took $3,800 and 5,000 Turkmenistan manat from her purse — amounting to roughly Rs 5.5 lakh in Indian currency. The accused fled the scene soon after. A case has been registered under sections 3(5) (common intention), 303 (theft) and 318 (4) (cheating) of BNS. Police visited the spot and scanned nearby CCTV footage in an effort to identify the suspects. "We have been advising the foreign patients to be safe from such fraudsters," a police officer said, adding, "We recorded several cases where foreigners — especially women — were targeted by similar gangs pretending to be law enforcement officers," a police officer said.

Agripada bizman held for abetting wife suicide
Mumbai: A 27-year-old Agripada businessman was arrested on Saturday for abetment to suicide after his wife died falling from the 13th floor of her flat in Mazgaon in south Mumbai. The arrest came after the woman's ex-husband lodged a complaint alleging that just before her death she had sent him messages and called him alleging she was being harassed by her new husband, Shoaib Khan. Khan's lawyer, Saurabh Ghag, argued in the court that it was a false case. The court directed a DCP-level officer to monitor the probe. Agripada police arrested Khan after his anticipatory bail plea was withdrawn before Bombay high court. The complaint was lodged by 63-year-old businessman Hashmat Ali Haider Ali Khan, a resident of Mazgaon, who alleged that his ex-wife Gulshan Khan (44), died under suspicious circumstances on April 6, 2025. Just days before her demise, she made a series of calls and sent messages to the complainant in which she claimed harassment by Khan, his brother Zaid, and their mother Roshan. —Ahmed Ali
