Sharjah, March 11: The bodies of the two Bangladeshi teenage cousins who drowned on Thursday off the beach near Coral Beach Hotel in Sharjah were recovered on Saturday. The duo went along with four friends to swim in an area where swimming is prohibited.


The police said that the bodies were found on Saturday after great efforts made by the marine rescue units, coast guards and rescue missions. Frogmen recovered the body of Mohammed Ali, 19, at 2pm in Sharjah while the body of his cousin Omar Abu Hussain, 18, was recovered from Ajman beach at 5.30pm.


An official from the Sharjah Civil Defence Department said: “Initially, our frogmen and others had much difficulty in tracing the youngsters missing at sea. Poor visibility, strong winds and bad weather conditions hampered the search operations, but with team effort, the bodies were recovered and sent to the Kuwaiti Hospital for further procedures.”


He added that the spot where the youths went for swimming was “extremely dangerous” and a public warning sign had been put up in the area to warn beach users of strong winds.


Yasmin Hussain, sister of Omar Hussain, told Khaleej Times that her brother and her cousin always went out together with other friends from the same community. “It was the first time they went to the beach and both of them did not know how to swim. My parents are in very traumatic condition as he is the youngest child of the family. He was born here in Sharjah and was going to Quran School. We are six sisters and four brothers, but Omar was the youngest and everyone loved him. He was quite and polite. I can’t believe that I’m not going to see him again.”


Abu Hussain, grieving father of Omar and uncle of Mohammed, said: “This is God’s will. I can’t say anything more. My two sons and his cousin were well disciplined and doing well in school.”


According to Hussain Siddiq, uncle of the victims, his nephews were the best in the family. He said he was in the beach since the news came out and until the bodies were recovered.


He extended his gratitude to the Sharjah Police and Civil Defence for the help and the support provided to the family. Naseem, a relative of the deceased, said that the burial will take place in the UAE as the family has been living here for almost 30 years.

Ahmedabad, Jan 20: Cops in Gandhinagar fell in a catch-22 situation when a state government employee approached them with a complaint that the 26-year-old woman class teacher of his 14-year-old son had gone missing taking his son in tow. The man, who works at Udyog Bhavan in Gandhinagar said the woman had seduced his teenage son, who studies in class VIII and taken him away with her. The boy had gone missing from 4pm on Friday, and the classteacher was also missing.

A police official said the woman teacher had been too intimate with the allegedly missing boy for around a year, and the school authorities had recently rebuked them. “As their relationship was unaccepted, they left their homes on Friday,” he said. It was rare to find a case of a woman teacher eloping with her teenage student, the official added.

An FIR for elopement under Section 363 IPC has been registered with Kalol city police in Gandhinagar district. The complaint stated the teacher is a resident of Darbari chawl in Kalol town.

“When I reached home at around 7pm, I found my son missing. My wife told me he had left home at around 4pm. We searched for him in the neighbourhood and among relatives, but couldn’t trace him,” claims the teenage boy’s father in the FIR. “I went to the teacher’s house but they were not there,” the man stated.

Inspector K K Desai of Kalol city police said the missing duo could not be traced as they were not carrying cellphones.

May 12: A Madhya Pradesh Police sub-inspector was fined Rs 5,000 after he performed a daredevil act of balancing himself on two moving cars, copying the famous stunt from Ajay Devgn-starrer 'Singham'.

Manoj Yadav, the in-charge of Narsinghgarh police post in Damoh district, was also warned against any such daredevilry in future, police sources said on Monday.

Sporting shades as the hero of the cop drama film and wearing his police uniform, Yadav got the entire episode video-graphed, they said.

As the video of the stunt went viral on social media, senior police officials took serious note of it as it will send wrong signals to youngsters, the sources said.

Inspector General, Sagar range, Anil Sharma directed Damoh Superintendent of Police Hemant Chauhan to probe the matter.

After an investigation, Chauhan imposed a fine of Rs 5,000 on the sub-inspector and warned him not to repeat such mistakes.

Chandigarh, Jan 15: A man, who has killed two women over infidelity over the last 10 years was arrested from a news channel studio in Chandigarh when he confessed to these crimes during a live programme, police said.

In the television programme on News18, the 31-year-old accused, Maninder Singh, who is a cab driver, confessed killing his live-in partner, a 27-year-old nurse Sarabjit Kaur at a Chandigarh hotel on New Year's Eve.

Singh, a former murder convict and currently out on bail, also confessed about his crime committed in Karnal in 2010.

"I killed her (Sarabjit Kaur) because she was having an affair with her sister-in-law's brother," Maninder told the news channel.

Confessing his previous crime, Maninder said he had killed Renu in Karnal. "She was also having an affair with a man from Uttar Pradesh," he said.

Singh was arrested while the programme was still on air as police rushed into the studio.

Haryana Police had arrested him for killing the woman in 2010. He was convicted by a trial court, but he later got bail from the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
