Doc who shot at nurse leaving her paralysed, sentenced for life
According to the prosecution, the accused, Dr Sandeep Soni, worked in a private hospital in Katni town, while Madhuri Chaudhary also worked in the same hospital as a nurse. The two were friends, and when Madhuri's father fell ill, the doctor helped her financially. Later, he proposed to her, which she refused.
She left her job at Katni, moved to Jabalpur, and began working there.
Dr Soni also moved to Jabalpur and joined a hospital.
He continued to pressure Madhuri to call him, and when she refused, he threatened her. On February 7, 2024, when Madhuri was returning home from duty, Dr Soni shot two bullets at her with a country-made pistol, intending to kill her.
The court was informed that one of the two bullets hit the nurse in her abdomen, which was surgically removed, but the second got stuck in her spinal cord and couldn't be removed, leaving the lower half of Madhuri's body unresponsive.

Wheels come off fake auto parts racket
New Delhi: Making a dent in a major counterfeit automobile parts racket operating from Karol Bagh, Delhi Police's crime branch seized duplicate auto parts and equipment worth over Rs 50 lakh and arrested 11 individuals. The racket involved the manufacture and sale of cheap, inferior products disguised as original equipment manufacturer parts to unsuspecting customers, police said. Based on a tip-off, a police team conducted simultaneous raids on four premises in Karol Bagh and recovered a large quantity of counterfeit auto parts, including brake pads, filters, spark plugs and clutch plates. Forged packaging, stickers, holograms and printing machines were also seized. Around 200 bottles of counterfeit branded engine oils were also found in their possession. The gang's modus operandi involved procuring low-quality counterfeit auto parts from local and regional manufacturers at a fraction of the cost of genuine parts. "They would then rebrand the fake products to resemble those of reputed automobile companies using forged labels, holograms, logos and packaging materials. The counterfeit products were sold to local auto part dealers, wholesalers and repair shops in and around Delhi at slightly discounted prices, maximising profit margins," said Aditya Gautam, DCP (crime). The accused operated this racket for several years, with some of them having previous cases registered against them for intellectual property rights violation and forgery. Dheeraj Singh , the kingpin of the operation, was found to be a commerce graduate with experience in supply chain and inventory control. He engaged in this trade for the last four years and built a network of suppliers and distributors. Besides Dheeraj, the other arrested men were Amit Singh, Dipankar Nagpal, Harsh Kumar, Rinku, Ravinder, Raghvender Singh, Sachin Singh, Vinod Ahuja, Ashish Malhotra and Alok Pruthi.

It said only those recoveries, which are made from a place accessible to the accused only, can be admitted as evidence in a case primarily hinging on circumstantial evidence. Live Events The top court last year agreed to examine separate pleas, including those filed by the CBI and the Uttar Pradesh government, challenging the Allahabad High Court's decision acquitting Koli on October 16, 2023. One of the pleas was filed by the father of one of the victims challenging the high court's verdict. Moninder Singh Pandher and his domestic help Koli were accused of rape and murder of people, mostly children from their neighbourhood in Nithari in Uttar Pradesh. Koli was awarded the death penalty on September 28, 2010 by the trial court. The high court acquitted Pandher and Koli in the death penalty case, holding the prosecution's failure to prove their guilt "beyond reasonable doubt" and called it a "botched up" investigation. Reversing the death sentence given to Koli in 12 cases and Pandher in two cases, the high court said the probe was "nothing short of a betrayal of public trust by responsible agencies".

Sebi fines nearly Rs 4 cr on 11 entities for share price manipulation
New Delhi, Jul 30 (PTI) Markets regulator Sebi on Wednesday imposed a penalty totalling Rs 3.87 crore on 11 individuals for manipulating the share price of Darshan Orna Ltd (DOL) using social media channels. The fines need to be paid within 45 days, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) said in its order. In its order, Sebi noted that a multi-layered market manipulation scheme was orchestrated in the scrip of DOL during September 2021 to June 2022, involving these entities across three distinct operational tiers, whereby in tier 1, Noticee 1 (Aakash Doshi) accumulating the company's shares through his own account and those of his father Dilip Doshi, while Kevin Kapadia traded in his wife's account Kruti Kevin Kapadia and provided crucial funding support to other participants. In tier 2, the funding infrastructure was bolstered by Satyen Dalal, who provided Rs 46 lakh in tranches to the Doshi family during the share accumulation phase and received back 90 per cent of these funds during the selling phase, demonstrating the scheme's temporary nature. In tier 3, the message circulation network was meticulously coordinated through Dhanpal Gandhi, who served as the crucial link between the other entities and the Telegram platform, working in conjunction with Amesh Jaiswal and Jalaj Agarwal, who posted the recommendations on the Telegram platform TBO. 'The trading activities in the scrip coupled with messages on Telegram app created an impression of increased price and volume in the market, which had allegedly influenced the gullible investors to purchase the shares of DOL, and the same was evident from the fact that during the same time, the number of public shareholders witnessed a huge jump from 1,732 to 7,536 i.e. an increase by 335 per cent during the quarter of January 2022 to March 2022," Sebi said in its 81-page order. Besides, the share price escalated from Rs 77 to Rs 146.7 during the period and a few individuals collectively profited Rs 2.51 crore while systematically exiting their positions. By indulging in such trades, these individuals violated the provisions of PFUTP (Prohibition of Fraudulent and Unfair Trade Practices) norms and accordingly, Sebi levied a fine totalling Rs 3.87 crore on them. The penalty ranges from Rs 10 lakh to 1.2 crore. The order came after Sebi conducted an investigation into the matter of trading activities of certain entities in the scrip of Darshan Orna based on recommendations that were circulated on the Telegram channel to ascertain possible violation of PFUTP norms. The period of investigation was from September 2021 till June 2022.
