Injured actor Shine Tom Chacko to undergo surgery after father's funeral on Monday
Thrissur: Malayalam actor Shine Tom Chacko, who was injured when his car crashed with a lorry at Dharmapuri in Tamil Nadu, will need to undergo surgery on his left hand, according to doctors attending on him. Speaking to the media here on Saturday, doctors attached to a private hospital in Thrissur said the surgery will take place anytime after the funeral of Chacko's father on Monday. "The actor and his mother were brought from Dharmapuri late on Friday night. Chacko has left humerus multiple fractures, an issue in the backbone's vertebrae, besides having multiple concussions on his body," said Sujoy, the treating orthopaedic surgeon. "All his vitals are stable, and when we informed him about the need for surgery, he said that since his father also passed away in the car crash, the funeral is fixed for Monday," added Sujoy. "His mother also has injuries. She is also stable. She has suffered hip injuries and a minor head injury. She will need rest," added the surgeon. "Chacko asked us when he can resume shooting, and we told him that he needs rest and rehabilitation for six weeks after surgery. He can resume light shooting activities after six weeks, but for doing fight scenes, he will have to wait for three months," said Sujoy. The accident took place on Friday at 6 a.m., and Chacko's father passed away while he was being taken to the hospital. The car occupants included the actor, his father, mother, brother and driver. The family which left from here in the wee hours on Friday was on its way to Bengaluru for the treatment of the actor, who is presently undergoing de-addiction rehabilitation. The actor was in the news since April after he was arrested after nearly three hours of questioning under Sections 27 and 29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.

Navi Mumbai businessman duped of ₹2.74 crore in online gaming app fraud
A 42-year-old businessman from Koparkhairane, Navi Mumbai, lost ₹2.74 crore after falling prey to a cyber fraud involving an online gaming platform, according to an NDTV report. According to the Navi Mumbai cyber crime cell, the complaint was officially lodged on May 20. The victim alleged that between December 2022 and April 2025, fraudsters convinced him to invest a total of ₹3.24 crore in what was promoted as an online gaming platform offering lucrative rewards. He was instructed to transfer the money into multiple bank accounts, under the pretext of participating in various prize-winning games. Realisation and partial recovery When the promised prizes failed to materialise, the businessman grew suspicious. He was able to recover ₹50 lakh, but the remaining amount had already been misappropriated. Attempts to reach the representatives of the gaming platform proved futile, according to a police official. An investigation into the matter is currently underway. Authorities have observed a surge in similar online fraud cases across different parts of the country. Earlier this month, a 23-year-old physiotherapist (DETAILS?? WHO/WHERE) became the victim of a scam after clicking on an Instagram advertisement for a gaming website. Lured by claims of doubling his 'investment', he ended up losing ₹1.9 lakh in just a few weeks. Online scams can turn fatal In an incident reported last month, a 17-year-old boy from Siliguri reportedly took his own life after suffering significant financial loss due to a gaming-related fraud. The teenager, Avik Paul, also known as Sujoy, was a student of Class 11 at Ghoghomali High School. He got involved in an online gaming scam, which led to nearly ₹2.5 lakh being fraudulently withdrawn from his father's bank account. Law enforcement officials are urging the public, especially younger users and investors, to remain cautious while engaging with online platforms that promise high returns or rewards. With scams increasingly targeting social media users through attractive but misleading advertisements, cyber experts warn that the threat continues to grow.
