Man wanted in case of fake loan docus used to secure bail held

Time of India2 days ago
Indore: Crime branch of Indore police on Friday arrested a 61-year-old man, who was absconding for three years in a major case involving fake loan passbooks used to secure bail from courts.
Additional DCP Rajesh Dandotiya said that the accused, Ramesh Kalota, a resident of Barodi Hatod was part of a gang that created forged loan documents to fraudulently secure bail for individuals involved in serious crimes. With this arrest, the total number of accused held in the case has reached 37. During the arrest, the police recovered three fake loan passbooks and a notarised stamp related to a lost passbook from Ramesh's possession.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the accused was operating this racket for nearly a decade, either providing fake sureties or posing as a surety himself to facilitate bail for several accused in criminal cases. Ramesh admitted to working with other members of the gang, contacting families of arrested individuals, charging hefty sums in exchange for bail, and producing forged documents to secure their release.

Information obtained from various courts indicated that Ramesh submitted fake loan documents in at least ten court cases, prompting police to initiate correspondence with the respective courts to begin proceedings for cancellation of those bails.
Earlier, in a related development, another accused Kedar Dabi, who was already arrested in the same case was found to have used a fake loan passbook again to secure bail for Saloni Arora, an accused in the journalist Kalpesh Yagnik suicide case.
Both were subsequently booked separately and arrested by the crime branch. A specially formed SIT team led by ACP Devendra Singh Dhurve was tracing absconding accused and curbing such fraudulent operations in the city.
As part of this continuing operation Ramesh has now been booked under IPC sections 420, 467, 468, 471, and 34 at the crime branch police station. The police are also pursuing legal procedures to have the bails obtained through forged documents invalidated. Investigations have so far linked Ramesh to bail arrangements in several cases across different police stations including Raoji Bazaar, Tilak Nagar, Sanwer, Khajrana, Annapurna, Sadar Bazaar, Kanadia, and GRP Indore, with suspects such as Sumit, Ravi, Ashok, Dharmendra, Vipin, Vishnu, Dheeraj, Vijay, Subhash, and Monu benefiting from his fraudulent surety services.

Delhi High Court to hear pleas against Centre's nod to release Udaipur Files film on July 30

The Delhi High Court on Monday (July 28, 2025) said it would hear on July 30, the pleas challenging the Centre's nod to release the film "Udaipur Files — Kanhaiya Lal Tailor Murder". The Court was also informed that an application has been made by the producers of the film to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) for re-certification of the movie, and it is likely to be considered shortly. A bench of Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela listed the pleas for hearing on Wednesday (July 30, 2025) after a request for adjournment was made on behalf of one of the petitioners. The two petitions were listed before the High Court in pursuance to the Supreme Court's direction to the petitioners to approach the high court against the Centre's decision of giving nod for the film's release. The petitions have been filed by Jamiat Ulema-i-Hind president Maulana Arshad Madani and Mohd Javed, who is an accused in the Kanhaiya Lal murder case. The apex court, on July 25, had said that film-makers' appeal against the High Court order staying the film's release was infructuous for they had accepted the July 21 Centre nod for the film's release, subject to six cuts in its scenes and modifications in the disclaimer. Udaipur-based tailor Kanhaiya Lal was murdered in June 2022 allegedly by Mohammad Riyaz and Mohammad Ghous. The assailants later released a video claiming that the murder was in reaction to the tailor allegedly sharing a social media post in support of former BJP member Nupur Sharma following her controversial comments on Prophet Mohammed. The case was probed by the NIA and the accused were booked under the stringent Unlawful Activities Prevention Act, besides provisions under the IPC. The trial is pending before the special NIA court in Jaipur.

MDMA drug lab busted in Mysuru, Mumbai cops lead raid with Karnataka Police support

An illegal MDMA (Ecstasy) drug manufacturing unit was busted in Mysuru on Saturday by the Maharashtra police, working in close coordination with the Mysuru City police. The joint operation led to the seizure of a substantial quantity of the synthetic drug and the arrest of four individuals, who have since been taken to Mumbai for further investigation. A drug lab was busted by Karnataka and Mumbai Police in a joint operation held at Mysuru. (Representational Image) Also Read - New traffic curbs on Bengaluru's Outer Ring Road to ease congestion, key diversions in place Sources in the police department confirmed that the facility was actively producing MDMA, a powerful psychoactive substance banned under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. The raid was the result of actionable intelligence obtained during an earlier arrest made by the Mumbai police, which subsequently led them to the Mysuru location. Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara, addressing reporters in Davangere on Sunday, confirmed the development and expressed serious concern over the discovery. "A drug manufacturing centre for MDMA was unearthed in Mysuru through an operation conducted by Mumbai police with support from our local police. Some people have been apprehended. This is extremely alarming," he said.

"Since this occurred in our jurisdiction, we need to find out how long this unit was operating, whether it had been active for more than the 20 days initially suspected, and to whom the drugs were being supplied. All these details will be examined thoroughly," Parameshwara said. Meanwhile, in an unrelated but simultaneous effort to clamp down on drug networks, Bengaluru Police conducted a surprise sweep across 13 police station limits in the city's North Division on Sunday. The operation, officials said, was part of an intensified campaign against suspected drug dealers and habitual offenders. As many as 106 individuals were picked up for questioning during the checks. These included those previously booked in drug-related cases, known drug users, and others whose activities had raised suspicions. Police collected updated information about their movements, employment status, court case appearances, and any outstanding warrants. (With ANI inputs)
