Bengaluru, Sept 6: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Thursday said that a supplementary charge sheet has been filed against an accused in the Rs 6.34 lakh Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) case here in Bengaluru.

Sabiruddin, 46, a resident of West Bengal's Malda, has been named in FICN case and the charge sheet has been filed against him before the NIA special court in Bengaluru, the NIA said in a statement
The case pertains to the seizure of FICN having a face value of Rs 6.34 lakh in denomination of Rs 2,000 by Madanayakanahalli police station officers from four persons on August 8, 2018.

Initially, the case was registered at the Madanayakanahalli police station. The NIA took over the investigation in September last year, it said.

The NIA had filed a charge sheet against the four accused -- Mohammed Sajjad Ali, M G Raju, Gangadhar Ramappa Kolkar and Vanitha J on November 3, 2018 -- under relevant provisions of the IPC, and one supplementary charge sheet was filed on March 8 this year against Abdul Kadir as per their role in commission of the offence, the statement said.

During further investigation, it was found that Sabiruddin, along with his associates based in Karnataka as well as in West Bengal, hatched a conspiracy to circulate huge quantities of FICN as genuine Indian currency notes in local markets of Bengaluru and other parts of Karnataka.

The accused were actively involved in procuring, trafficking, supplying and circulating huge quantities of FICN in the high denomination.

Sabiruddin is one of the main suppliers of FICN from Malda who, as part of the conspiracy, supplied huge quantity of FICN to his associate Raju at Bengaluru through Sajjad Ali -- a courier.

The names of his associates from Malda, Bengaluru and other parts of Karnataka have come to light and further investigation against them under Section 173(8) of Code of Criminal Procedure against them is underway.

New Delhi, Jun 1: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday sought a discussion on advances in telemedicine, the use of "Make in India" products in the healthcare, and the use of IT tools in the medical sector for a healthier society.

Addressing an event at the Rajiv Gandhi Health University in Bengaluru via video conference, he sought a discussion on whether new models can be conceived that make telemedicine popular on a larger scale.

Referring to the "Make in India" program, he said the initial gains made in this field make him optimistic. "Our domestic manufacturers have started production of personal protective equipment and have supplied about one crore PPEs to those in the frontline of fighting COVID-19.

Modi said IT-related tools for healthier societies can be of great help.

"I am sure you have heard of Arogya Setu. Twelve crore health-conscious people have downloaded it. This has been very helpful in the fight against coronavirus," he said.

New Delhi, Jul 21: A 42-year-old contractual doctor, who was working with Delhi government's National Health Mission, passed away yesterday due to covid-19.

Dr Javed Ali had been on the frontline in the fight against the highly contagious illness since March. He tested positive for coronavirus on June 24 and was hospitalised for treatment over the next three weeks.

For the last 10 days, he was on a ventilator. Yesterday morning, Dr Ali breathed his last at the AIIMS trauma centre. He is survived by his wife and two children - a six-year-old son and a 12-year-old daughter.

"I am proud of my husband. He kept working till the end and he is a martyr. He did not take even one day off since March. He worked even on Eid," Dr Heena Kausar, his wife, told media persons.

The cost for the initial treatment at the private hospital was also borne by the family. "No treatment cost was covered when he was at a private hospital initially. We spent around Rs 6 lakh from our own pockets," she said.
