Melbourne, Sep 7: A six-year-old Indian Muslim girl has won praise for her brave attempt at stopping an axe-wielding robber, who attacked an employee at her father's store in New Zealand in a burglary.

Sarah Patel was captured on CCTV trying to defend the staff member when a group of six armed men broke into the family's electrical shop in Auckland on Monday.

The footage shows the masked men kicking, punching and threatening employees with an axe and a crowbar, or iron lever, and smashing cabinets and stealing thousands of dollars worth of electronics.

Sarah Patel, who was caught up in the violent drama, is seen in the video rushing towards one of the attackers standing over an employee with an axe, and tries to get him to stop his attack.

The girl grabbed onto the leg of the man during the armed incident that ended in a dramatic police chase from the North Shore to west Auckland.

She told the New Zealand Herald she was "trying to save" the employee and that she "wasn't scared" of the bad guy.

When Sarah Patel glimpsed the attacker's axe she fled. She later helps her grandfather out of the room and away from danger.

Her father Mr Suhail Patel told TVNZ he was "proud" of his daughter and though she had been shaken by the incident, she was recovering well.

"Last night she was very upset. Was in shock. We've been trying to say to her 'You're the bravest girl', that sort of thing," he said.

Mr Suhail said his daughter was extremely brave facing up to the man as he was holding what appeared to be a small axe.

"I'm proud of her, definitely."

The proud father added his daughter was "always trying to help people" and he was not surprised she sprung into action.

The video shows her being shoved aside by the man then helped up by her grandfather.

Sarah Patel's mother Ms Nashrin said her daughter initially thought the attacker was her father.

After the intruders fled, they were pursued across West Auckland by police - as well as Sarah Patel, her mother and grandfather, who gave chase in their family car.

They were eventually stopped by police road spikes laid out for them.

Five 16-year-old boys have been charged with aggravated robbery, injuring with intent and breaching bail.

A sixth suspect is still to be found.

Several newspapers around the world today reported Sarah Patel's "astonishing bravery", calling her "fearless".

Bengaluru, Aug 2: Bengaluru based Centre for Advanced Research and Development (CARD), the research wing of organisation De scalene has come up with a device called "SHYCOCAN" (Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon) which neutralizes the coronavirus.

Speaking to news agency Dr Rajah Vijay Kumar, Chairman, Organisation De Scalene said that the device will not kill any bacteria or fungus, however, neutralizes the coronavirus particles.

"The device was tested for its safety and efficacy and is soon going to be manufactured and marketed in the US under the Enforcement Discretion policy of USFDA and in Europe as the device is CE compliant and is CE marked," said Kumar.

He also added the device will cover a volume of 10,000 cubic feet.

The device Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon (SHYCOCAN) is intended to be used in the residential, industrial and commercial environment and is designed for active containment by attenuation of Corona family of viruses. (Laboratories de Especialidades Immunological S.A. de C.V, Virucidal Activity concludes 99.9 per cent virus elimination), Kumar asserted.

"SHYCOCAN operates on regular 110/240V - 50/60 Hz wall socket and is a plug and play device, that delivers the necessary signals to a photon mediated electrons emitters (PMEE), that produces hypercharge high-velocity electrons by photon mediation that interacts with the negative seeking S-protein of Corona family of viruses thus reducing infectivity and prevent air and surface borne transmission of corona family of viruses," said Kumar.

The device does not use any chemicals, or any other consumables and does not produce harmful ozone gas or any other substances and is completely safe for use in any environment, he added.

"The attack mechanism of the Virus starts with the initial attachment of the virion to the host cell, it is initiated by interactions between the S-protein and its receptor on the "negative" cell membrane. The sites of receptor binding domains (RBD) within the S1 region of a coronavirus S-protein vary depending on the virus. 

The S-protein/receptor interaction is the primary determinant for a coronavirus to infect a host species and governs the tissue tropism of the virus. However, the end result is the fusion and release of the viral genome into the cytoplasm," said Kumar.

He continued saying that the counter mechanism by the device SHYCOCAN is that if negative seeking is the guidance mechanism of the S- Protein, attracted by the transmembrane potential of the host cells, then breaking this mechanism would block the Coronavirus infectivity and spread.

"The device has been in use for more than a year at the S-CARD campus, the headquarters of Scalene," said Kumar.

Ballari Superintendent of Police SP C K Baba said that Congress MLA B Z Zameer Ahmed has not been granted permission to stage a dharna in front of the Bellary MLA’s residence.

Zameer Ahmed had asked the police to arrest Mr Reddy after he delivered a provocative speech or he will stage a dharna in front of the later's house.

The patient was taken to these hospitals on Saturday and Sunday for admission on observing some ILI like symptoms. But none of these hospitals admitted in on the pretext of unavailability of bed/ventilators, read the notice.

This is a clear violation of providing medical assistance and admission necessitated under the agreed provision of KPME Registration.

Private Medical Establishments cannot deny/ refuse/ avoid treatment to patients with Covid-19 and Covid-19 like symptoms, the state Health Department said.

By denying the admission to the deceased patient, your hospitals have violated the provisions of the above-said act. You are liable for legal action in this regard, as per the notice.

The state Health department asked the hospitals to reply as to why action should not be initiated under the relevant Acts.
