Savad Sha, ‘hailed' by men's rights activists, arrested again
Savad, of Vadakara, was arrested on Friday based on a complaint filed by a woman that she was molested in a Malappuram-bound KSRTC bus on June 14. It was exactly two years ago that Savad was arrested by the police based on a video posted by a woman on social media.
She had alleged that while travelling from Thrissur to Ernakulam, Savad exposed himself inside the tightly packed bus on the move and engaged in lewd sexual acts. The issue became a major debate in the state as men's rights activists supported Savad.
They alleged that she was trying to get followers and taking advantage of the laws. In the latest case, Savad was remanded by the court for 14 days.

AI 171 crash report: India commercial pilots' association slams 'pilot suicide theory'
Air India plane's parts after crashing in Ahmedabad on June 12, leaving all the passengers and crew members killed except one. -File Image NEW DELHI: The India Commercial Pilots' Association (ICPA) has slammed the "reckless and unfounded insinuation of pilot suicide" that has been doing the rounds after the preliminary report into AI 171 crash was made public on Saturday. While not sharing the cockpit voice recorder transcript, the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) report had this one line: "One of the pilots is heard asking the other why did he cutoff. The other pilot responded that he did not do so." According to the report, three seconds after getting airborne from Ahmedabad on June 12, fuel supply to both engines of the Air India Boeing 787 operating as AI 171 got cut off. The reason: fuel cutoff switches of the London-bound Dreamliner's engine 1 and 2 transitioned from 'run' to 'cutoff' position one after another with a time gap of a second. ICPA, which is the union of erstwhile Indian Airlines, said in a statement issued Sunday: "We are deeply disturbed by speculative narratives, particularly the reckless and unfounded insinuation of pilot suicide. Let us be unequivocally clear: there is absolutely no basis for such a claim at this stage, and invoking such a serious allegation based on incomplete or preliminary information is not only irresponsible-it is deeply insensitive to the individuals and families involved. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Paras Sector 59 Gurgaon | Luxury Awaits at Paras Floret Paras The Florett Book Now Undo " Expressing their "unwavering support for the flight crew of Air India flight Al 171," the statement added: "Pilots undergo extensive psychological and professional screening, recurrent training, and operate under the highest standards of safety, responsibility, and mental fitness. To casually suggest pilot suicide in the absence of verified evidence is a gross violation of ethical reporting and a disservice to the dignity of the profession. " "As aviation professionals, we trust and respect the rigorous investigative protocols established by competent authorities. These inquiries are designed to uncover facts methodically and without bias. Until the official investigation is concluded and the final report is published, any speculation-especially of such a grave nature-is unacceptable and must be condemned.... The crew of Al 171 acted in line with their training and responsibilities under challenging conditions. They deserve support-not vilification based on conjecture," it said.

Suicide bid at Central stn stalls Metro services for 1 hour
Kolkata: Metro services on the North-South (Blue) line were disrupted for an hour on Saturday following a suicide bid at Central station. Though truncated services were operated, several commuters were hassled as no trains were available in the Maidan-Girish Park section until 12.55 pm. Around 11.55 am, a man jumped before a Dakshineswar-bound train at the Central station, a Metro Railway spokesperson said. The third rail, which supplies electricity to the rakes, was switched off to rescue the man from the tracks and give him medical aid. "Truncated services were run between Maidan and New Garia (Kavi Subhas) stations and between Girish Park and Dakshineswar stations for an hour," the Metro official said.

"As trains were going up to Maidan, I decided to avail the Metro and take a bus to my workplace at Chandni Chowk. Fortunately, I managed to board a crowded bus even as I was late for work by an hour," Abhirup Das, an executive, said. tnn
