Ahmedabad, September 5: In a big blow for the Gujarat government ahead of assembly elections at the end of the year, former state Home Minister and close aide of Chief Minister Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, has been chargesheeted by the CBI in the Tulsi Prajapati fake encounter case.

Virtually the entire top brass of the Gujarat police that was posted in the CID when Tulsiram Prajapati was gunned down in an encounter in December 2006, has been put in the dock by the CBI in its chargesheet filed in a Banaskantha court.
Modi's trusted aide Amit Shah, who was minister in charge of the police force, then, is accused of murder, conspiracy and destruction of evidence.

Not only has RK Patel, the CID Deputy SP who investigated the case been chargesheeted, his seniors, right up to the DGP, face possible arrest soon.

Among others who have been named in the case are - PC Pande, who was DGP when the Tulsi Prajapati encounter happened, Geetha Johri, who was IGP (CID) when Tulsi was killed and OP Mathur, who headed the CID as ADGP and is now retired.

All the three officers - PC Pande, OP Mathur and Johri - were supervisory officers in the CID's investigation of the encounter. The CBI clearly feels that they can be tried for destruction of evidence as they willfully led investigations in the wrong direction.

Johri says, "I've been framed wrongly in this case. I was the supervisor for this case for only two months. The CBI is used by the central government in centre-state politics.

Tulsi Prajapati was a close aide of Sohrabuddin Shaikh who was also killed in a fake encounter in November 2005. Tulsi was killed in December 2006 by the same set of cops who are presently behind bars for the killing of Sohrabuddin Shaikh and his wife Kauser Bi.

The JMFC court at Danta in Banaskantha district has fixed September 10 as the date to hear an application by the accused whether the CBI can file its chargesheet at the Danta court or not. Once that matter is settled, the competent court will issue non-bailable warrants against those chargesheeted, leaving them with the only option of filing anticipatory bail pleas.

Chhattisgarh minister TS Singh Deo calls Scindia power-hungry leader for ditching Congress

News Network

March 13,2020

Raipur, Mar 13: Calling Jyotiraditya Scindia a "power-hungry" leader, Chhattisgarh Minister and Congress leader TS Singh Deo on Friday said that if someone joins another party to occupy the top position of the state that he should never become a Chief Minister.

When enquired if Deo has any plans to join the BJP in the future, he quickly said that he would never be able to relate himself with the "ideology" of the party.

"People may make claims but I will never join BJP, even if I get 100 lives I will never associate with that ideology. A person who joins BJP for not being able to become Chief Minister should never become a Chief Minister," he said while speaking to media in Raipur.

"A single person does not remain as captain forever, Kapil Dev got his chance when Gavaskar was there. Currently, Virat Kohli is the captain but in T20 there are different captains. Will Kohli join Pakistan's team if he is not made the captain? This is beyond understanding."

On Wednesday, Scindia joined BJP in New Delhi in the presence of party President JP Nadda. He had resigned from Congress a day earlier after meeting Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

He will file his nomination for the Rajya Sabha elections on March 13.

'Sadaf Jafar, Darapuri, Pavan Rao arrest without evidence, shameful'

Agencies

January 5,2020

New Delhi, Jan 5: Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Sunday sàid it was "shameful" that Sadaf Jafar, SR Darapuri and Pavan Rao were arrested by the Uttar Pradesh Police for violence without any evidence against them.

He also said that it was a shocking admission by the police that there is no evidence of their involvement.

"Sadaf Jafar, S R Darapuri and Pavan Rao Ambedkar released on bail after police ADMITTED no evidence of their involvement in violence. Shocking admission," he said on Twitter.

"If that were so, why did the police arrest them in the first place? And how did the Magistrate remand them to custody without looking at the evidence," he asked.
"The law says 'find evidence, then arrest'. The reality is 'first arrest, then search for evidence'. Shameful," Chidambaram tweeted.

March 19,2020

Attari, Mar 19: At least 29 Indians, who had gone to Dubai to watch a cricket match which was called off later, on Wednesday night returned to India through the land transit route of Attari-Wagah border here.

Earlier, when they entered India after being cleared by the Pakistan Immigration Authority, they were detained at Attari border, as they were not having requisite permission on their passport to return to India through Pakistan.

According to officials, they had earlier flown to Dubai from New Delhi to watch a Pakistan League Cricket match there.

The match, however, was aborted and they decided to return India via Pakistan. They took a flight to Pakistan and after landing there, they took land route to reach Attari-Wagah border.

All were cleared by Indian immigration authority after being allowed by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs.

Amritsar Civil Surgeon Dr Prabdeep Kaur Johal said that by 9.30 PM all the Indian nationals were not handed over to the medical team for checkup.

She said if anyone of them are found with any symptoms of the virus, they would be admitted to Amritsar Government Hospital or else they would be allowed to continue their journey to Delhi or elsewhere.
