strangledBijapur, Nov 17: The police arrested a person who has been accused of killing his father after allegedly being denied money to purchase a car. The police arrested Ajeeth Biradar on the charges of killing his father Shivangouda Biradar, an advocate residing at Raghavendra colony here.

The police said the accused Ajeeth was pestering his father for money ostensibly to buy a car, but his father refused. Frustrated by the constant refusals, he decided to kill his father.

According to the police, the motive behind the murder was not buying car, but to extract money to pay off his loans taken for gambling. The police said the accused Ajeeth had lost a large sum in gambling. He had borrowed a lot of money from private moneylenders, who were demanding repayment. The son who had no other way to pay money, asked the father to lend some money to buy car.

The father, who was aware of his son’s gambling habit, refused to heed. Following this, the son decided to eliminate the father hoping that after his death, he will be the owner of the property, police sources said.

The police said Mr. Biradar’s family had filed a complaint with Gol Gumbaz police station on October 10, where they said the deceased was missing since October 8.

The police first began collecting the call details of the deceased and his close relatives. During investigation, the police found that the mobile phones of the deceased and his son went off near Hungund town. This ‘coincidence’ evoked curiosity among the police that decided to interrogate some close friends of Ajeeth.

“During interrogation, one of the four accused who is also a friend of Ajeeth, confessed of being involved in the murder, but said the main accused and primary conspirator was Ajeeth,” the police said.

The police said the son convinced Mr. Biradar that a friend was selling a car at a cheap price. The father accompanied Ajeeth and his friends for a test drive. Here the accused strangled his father and dumped his body in Almatti dam backwaters.

Ahmadabad, July 17: The Gujarat high court has ordered the Bharuch superintendent of police to investigate and produce a 14-year-old girl before the court, who has allegedly eloped with a man. Ironically, the man was convicted two years ago on Pocso charges for eloping with another minor girl in 2016.

The high court has asked the government to file an application for bail cancellation of the convict because he has indulged in a similar offence after having come out on bail.

The case involved one Dilip Padhiyar (24) from Uchchhad village in Jambusar taluka of Bharuch district.

He was punished with 10 years in jail in December 2018 by a special court for kidnapping a 16-year-old girl in 2016. He was prosecuted under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act and for rape and kidnapping charges. He got away with a 10-year-imprisonment because the girl was over 16 years and she had not alleged rape. However, Dilip Padhiyar was held guilty of statutory rape, abduction as well as under provisions of Pocso Act.

Dinesh Padhiyar got regular bail from the high court pending his appeal challenging his conviction in January 2019. In November 2019, he eloped with another minor girl.

Her father approached the high court complaining that though an FIR was registered with Vedach police station, the police have not made any effort to trace his minor girl. It was also contended in the habeas corpus petition that Padhiyar is a habitual offender.

Petitioner's advocate Imtiyaz Kureshi said that looking at the past of Dinesh Padhiyar, the high court asked the state government to initiate proceedings for cancellation of his bail.

The bench headed by Justice Sonia Gokani instructed HC's registry to treat the bail cancellation application as an urgent matter.

The high court has ordered Bharuch SP to produce the girl before the court by July 20, and in case she cannot be traced by then, he will have to submit an action taken report.

Wanted in the Tuticorin custodial deaths of P Jeyaraj and his son J Bennicks, Muthuraj was arrested on late Friday.

Muthuraj was later remanded to the judicial custody till July 17.

The Madras High Court while hearing the case had said there was prima facie evidence to register a murder case against the Sathankulam police officials.

Kota, Feb 26: At least 24 people died and four others sustained injuries as a private bus carrying a wedding party fell into a river on Kota–Dausa highway in Bundi district on Wednesday morning, police said.

The wedding party with 28 persons on board was headed to Sawai Madhopur from Kota early morning when the driver apparently lost balance of the bus while traversing a bridge near Papdi village under Lekhari police station limits, Lakheri Sub-Inspector Rajendra Kumar said.

The bus, subsequently, plunged into Mej river from the bridge that had no wall or railing, Kumar said.

Thirteen people died on the spot while 10 others succumbed to their injuries on way to hospital, he added.

The deaths include 11 men, 10 women and three children.

The injured were rushed to Lekhari government hospital from where the critically injured are being referred to a government hospital in Kota, the SI further said.

Most of the injured people were rescued with the help of locals in the village, he added.

Mej river is a tributary of the Chambal river in Rajasthan.
