Palwal, Jan 3: A retired lieutenant of Indian Army, who was trained to kill soldiers of other countries, left a trail of six bodies of innocent Indians in an hour-long rampage with an iron rod as the weapon, in Haryana’s Palwal early on Tuesday.

The accused, Naresh Dhankar (45), was finally arrested from outside his estranged wife’s house. Police said all six murders were committed between 2.45 am and 4 am on Tuesday.

Among Dhankar's victims were a pregnant woman — his first victim, whom he killed by sneaking into a city hospital around2.45am — four security guards and a vagabond. None of the dead were apparently known to the killer.

They were attacked one by one, as Dhankar went in search of more victims after each murder. By the time cops caught up with Dhankar around 4am, the city was on red alert to capture the serial killer who had been identified in CCTV footage from the hospital. Dhankar was thrashed by the public and police, leading to a brain haemorrhage. He is battling for life at Delhi's Safdarjung hospital.

The cops are unclear about the motive or the trigger for the bloodbath. They suspect he was mentally unstable and depressed, possibly because of marital discord. It all started with Dhankar arrived at Palwal City hospital armed with a rod. He went to the first floor — as if looking for someone — and attacked the woman sleeping on the bench. He first woke her up by removing her quilt and then smashed her face and head with the rod. The woman, Anjum, died on the spot.

After the sixth killing, Dhankar walked to his in-laws' house in Adarsh Colony nearby. There, he called out to his estranged wife and son. When nobody responded, he started kicking the door. Hearing the ruckus, one of his wife's relatives, Ashish, came out of an adjacent house and confronted him. This was around 3.45am, a full hour after the first killing.

Dhankar attacked him as well but Ashish managed to run away and lock himself in his house. By this time, almost the entire city police force was out looking for Dhankar. Outside the hospital, Manshiram's body was the first to be discovered. It was found near Rasoolpur chowk by an SHO who was heading to the hospital to investigate the first murder.

In no time, the murder count rose from two to six as police kept getting calls about attacks by a rod-wielding man. The CCTV footage and grabs of the suspect were circulated amongst cops on Whatsapp and a red alerted sounded in the city by3.30am. Around 4am, cops received aPCR call about a man chasing another person on the road in the Camp area in Adarsh colony. Simultaneously, Ashish, the man who was attacked, too, called up the police.

Cornered in a lane, Dhankar attacked the cops but was soon overpowered and thrashed. Palwal SP Sulochona Gajraj said initial enquiry suggests that he was mentally unstable and had selected his victims at random. "We have recovered an identity card from him which suggests he is a retired Army man," Gajraj said.

New Delhi, Feb 5: Taking on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal after Shaheen Bagh shooter Kapil Baisala was identified as an AAP worker by police, BJP chief J P Nadda on Tuesday said it exposed the party and Kejriwal who were playing with the country's security.

The Aam Aadmi Party hit back, questioning the police investigation.

In a series of tweets, Nadda said people of the country and Delhi today have seen the "dirty face" of AAP.

"For political longing, Kejriwal and his people even sold the security of the country. Earlier, Kejriwal used to insult the Army and advocate terrorists, but today relations with those who carry out their terrorist activities came to light," he said.

Nadda said he wanted to make it clear to Kejriwal that this country is bigger than any election, any government, and "this nation will not forgive those who play with its security. Kejriwal and his entire team have been exposed. The people of Delhi will give a befitting reply".

He claimed the entire country has seen "photos of Imam Hussain, the MLA and former minister of the Delhi government, with a radical terrorist organisation, PFI".

Days before Delhi goes to polls, police claimed that Baisala is a member of the Aam Aadmi Party. They said Baisala joined the party in early 2019 along with his father.

Police said it had photos of Baisala purportedly joining AAP along with his father Gaje Singh last year.

AAP's Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh alleged that photos which were part of investigation were leaked to the BJP. He also said the party will approach the Election Commission to raise this issue, which has cropped up four days before the polling date.

"On whose instance, the police is giving statement? How did the photos which were part of the investigation reach the BJP? Before the news came out, Manoj Tiwari in the morning stated that the accused was from AAP. How did Manoj Tiwari get this news," Singh questioned in a press conference.

Union minister and BJP's in-charge for the Delhi polls, Prakash Javadekar, in a press conference alleged that "their (AAP's) designs are very clear from the beginning and they are trying every trick".

The whole conspiracy of AAP is to "divide society, cause fear in a community and create a vote bank," he charged.

Javadekar also claimed that photos of Baisala were recovered by police from his mobile phone although they were erased.

He also claimed that Baisala and his father were welcomed by Sanjay Singh at their joining of AAP.

"This proves AAP misleads youth and pushes them on the wrong path. AAP's strategy is to divide two communities, they want to instigate riots in Delhi," Javadekar alleged.

He further alleged that AAP leader Sanjay Singh had said violence would take place in Delhi. Their "conspiracy has been exposed by Delhi Police," he claimed.

"We condemn this politics of AAP," he said.

Javadekar also claimed this was "not an isolated incident" as AAP member Amanatullah Khan made a "very provocative speech" and the party supported Shaheen Bagh and did not give permission for the prosecution of members of the "tukde-tukde gang".

He hinted the BJP could approach the Election Commission against AAP over the issue.

Kolkata, Jun 19: The nationwide clamour for boycott of Chinese goods is getting louder amid the Ladakh face-off, with traders urging the Centre to direct e-commerce firms to restrict the sale of items from the Dragonland, which imports products worth USD 74 billion to India annually.

Of the total import from China, retail traders sell goods worth around USD 17 billion, mostly comprising toys, household items, mobiles, electric and electronic goods and cosmetics among other things, which could possibly be replaced by Indian products, a national trading body said.

"We, at 'Federation of All India Vyapar Mandal', are advising our members to clear their stocks of Chinese products and refrain from placing fresh orders. We are also requesting the government to restrict e-commerce companies from selling Chinese products," V K Bansal, the association's general secretary, told PTI.

Sushil Poddar, the president of the Confederation of West Bengal Traders Association, said its members have been told to shun trading in Chinese goods as much as possible.

Another national traders' body, The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT), has decided to step up its movement against the boycott of Chinese goods, under its campaign 'Bhartiya Samaan-Hamara Abhimaan'.

It released a list of over 450 broad categories of commodities, comprising 3,000 Chinese products.
