Kompally drug bust: Court rejects bail pleas of intel officer's son, key accused
Teja, while seeking bail, claimed innocence and argued that he was falsely implicated in the case solely because of his familial relation to Surya.
According to the court order in Surya's bail plea, authorities from the Elite Action Group for Drug Law Enforcement (EAGLE) alleged that Surya, along with other accused, pooled money to purchase narcotic substances such as cocaine, LSD, and ecstasy, with the intent to distribute them to consumers.
Surya's arrest led to the seizure of 10 grams of cocaine, OG ganja, and ecstasy pills. Notably, the drugs were found hidden inside packaged women's footwear.

The court noted that the quantity of drugs seized exceeded the prescribed 'small quantity' threshold under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act and cited the ongoing investigation as grounds to deny bail.
Teja's bail was also rejected, with the court observing that he is a repeat offender.

uring the hearing, Teja's counsel argued that no contraband was recovered from his possession and that his implication was based solely on Surya's confession, allegedly due to their familial relationship. However, the court, after hearing both sides, refused to grant bail.
In contrast, the court granted conditional bail to two other accused—Surabhi Jaswanth and D Pavan Kumar—citing a previous high court order under which co-accused Yashwanth Ramana and Navadeep Reddy were released on bail.
Meanwhile, the bail applications of two other accused, including P Mohan, son of a DCP-rank officer, and C Harsha, are still under consideration by the Rangareddy district court.

Cardinal Baselios expresses trust in court after nuns get bail in Chhattisgarh
Raipur: Hours after the NIA court in Chhattisgarh granted conditional bail to two nuns arrested on charges of human trafficking and religious conversion, the president of Kerala Catholic Bishops Council, Cardinal Baselios Cleemis Catholicos, told TOI over a phone call, "With the bail granted, the first chapter of the circumstance has come to a conclusion, but we don't think the issue is closed. The judicial process now begins and we wish the nuns to be declared innocent after the legal process." Speaking as the spokesman of the Church, Baselios said, "We all believe is that they are innocent and were trying to help the young girls. The girls are mature and not minors, they can a decision for themselves. Let the court take its act of justice and we have all confidence in the court." "We believe that the accusations against nuns have to be proved, while my apprehension is that once a crowd dictates what is right and not, things in democracy and judiciary will be in trouble. Let the court alone make the sincere investigation and find the truth," he added. "The nuns are from Kerala and we are with them on different levels as we have emotional attachment with them. They are not two simple sisters, the issue is of serious concern for us. It shouldn't happen again anywhere in the country. Else, anyone could accuse anyone and put them in jail, who will prove them innocent," Cardinal Baselios said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Taylor Swift Goes Natural, Here's How She Really Looks The Noodle Box Undo Cardinal Baselios Cleemis is a former President of Catholic Bishops Conference of India twice, and is present consultant to Pope Leo XIV in the dicastery of inter-religious dialogue.

ATM screw left loose after servicing, duo return to steal Rs12 lakh
Ghaziabad : Two ATM servicing staff were arrested for allegedly stealing over Rs 12 lakh from a machine one of them had previously accused, Suraj Narayan (33) and Sonu Rajput (34), both residents off Delhi, were nabbed near Vijay Nagar flyover on Saturday following a tip-off. Police recovered Rs 10.2 lakh in cash, three mobile phones, and a motorcycle used in the theft. According to DCP (city) Dhaval Jaiswal, the two men worked for different private companies that maintain ATM machines—Suraj with Tech Byte Company and Sonu with NCR Company. They met through Sonu's brother last year and initially collaborated to buy and resell ATM parts. Over time, that partnership evolved into a criminal conspiracy. Their plan began two months ago, targeting an ATM in Jassipura maintained by Sonu's company. While repairing the machine, Sonu deliberately left the latch's screws loose and later requested to be transferred from the site to avoid suspicion. The theft was then carried out over seven days.
