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.

Noida, Jul 28: A doctor admitted at a private hospital in Noida has been accused of sexually harassing a patient in his isolation ward, where both were undergoing treatment for COVID-19, the police said.

The 20-year-old woman, in her complaint to the police, alleged that the incident took place on Monday and based on that a case was filed at the local expressway police station, they said.

A senior police official said an investigation is underway and there might be lapses on part of the hospital which allegedly admitted a man and a woman in the same isolation ward, in violation of the norms.

The woman and the doctor had tested positive for coronavirus last week, according to officials.

"The woman was in the isolation ward of the private hospital. There was a man, a medical practitioner, who too was infected with coronavirus and was sharing the ward with her," Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police, Noida, Ranvijay Singh said.

He said the woman alleged molestation and upon being informed, the police immediately lodged a case and initiated a probe into the matter.

"There appears to be some irresponsibility on part of the hospital too. We are communication with the medical departments to check whether the patients were being kept in accordance with the guidelines," Mr Singh said.

He said the accused is still in isolation but the police will reach out for his statement following due protocols of COVID-19.

"All necessary action will be taken as per the truth that will emerge after a thorough investigation," Mr Singh said.

Bareilly, Jan 9: In a bizarre development, a woman has been arrested for inflicting 101 cuts on her sister-in-law in Uttar Pradesh's Bareilly district, the police said on Thursday.

The woman was practicing exorcism to cure her father who had been ailing for some time.

The woman, Moni, was helped by her husband Mooli and brother Raju in the act, which happened on Tuesday.

The sister-in-law Renu who suffered the cuts, was given 300 stitches on her face and other parts of the body by the doctors.

Renu has been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) where her condition is said to be serious.

Moni, 30, has been sent to jail while Mooli and Raju are absconding.

Baradari police station officer inspector Naresh Tyagi said that a complaint had been filed by Renu's brother under section 307 (attempt to murder) of IPC.

"We will record Renu's statements in a day or two once she is stable and in a condition to talk to us. We have sent Moni to jail," the inspector said.

Renu, a resident of Ganghora village in Bareilly, was married to Sanjeev around eight years ago.

Her father-in-law, Jagdish, fell ill a few months ago.

"Accused Moni, who practices exorcism, decided to cure her father by initiating the act. Going by superstitious beliefs, they inflicted as many as 101 cuts on Renu's face and body. It cannot be ruled out that they wanted to sacrifice her to complete the act," police inspector said.

On Tuesday night, the accused had locked Renu's husband and mother-in-law in another room when they tried to stop them from making her a scapegoat.

When the accused trio started inflicting cuts on Renu, she struggled to get out of their clutches and somehow managed to escape from the house.

She had run a short distance when she collapsed and became unconscious. A police constable on patrol reportedly spotted her and she was taken to a district hospital. Once regaining her consciousness, she narrated her ordeal to the police who then informed her parents.
