It all began when Lord Miles shared his frustrating experience on social media, revealing that his AirPods were stolen in Dubai while he was waiting for a visa. Housekeeping staff visited his room, and afterwards, his AirPods went missing. Using the "Find My" app, he tracked the device to Pakistan, pinpointing its location near the "2nd Wife Restaurant" in Jhelum.
With the help of local police, Lord Miles planned to "storm the area" and retrieve his AirPods, documenting the entire process for his YouTube audience. His determination to reclaim his property sparked widespread interest, with many following the developments on social media.
The Jhelum police sprang into action after his tweet about his stolen AirPods went viral. They formed a team to investigate, focusing on households with residents who had recently returned from Dubai. The search paid off when they found a local man in possession of the AirPods. Although the man claimed he had bought them from an Indian national in Dubai, unaware they were stolen, the police were able to recover the device. Lord Miles was informed, and he decided to travel to Pakistan to retrieve his AirPods, documenting the experience for his YouTube audience.
Mr Routledge thanked the local police for their efforts. He was also treated to lunch at the Second Wife restaurant, where he was surrounded by 20 cameramen and journalists from various Pakistani news channels. "There were 20 cameramen and journalists from every Pakistani news channel, turns out this is a national news story, and half of Pakistan knows of it! I ask a random Pakistani on the street, and they know about my stolen AirPods! I've been recognised several times by strangers," he wrote in another tweet.

She alleged that Patel refused to believe her and demanded access to her bank account to check if she was working somewhere else. "I went through my bank app and showed him. He said I started buying new furniture, now I'm buying a car. He's not comfortable with me being a cashier again," she wrote in a Facebook post. Accused of stealing Limelintaka added that Patel even accused her of stealing by warning her that he was investigating whether any money was missing from his business. He gave her an ultimatum, she said, to either work as a petrol pump attendant or resign. "I refused. I was hired as a cashier and have done nothing wrong," she wrote. "I had hoped the car would help me run a side hustle and keep working. Now it feels like I'm being punished for trying to improve my life." Speaking to News24 in South Africa, the owner of the garage, Berkley Motor, denied the allegations made by Limelintaka, claiming that she was not fired. "Nothing was done without consent, and discussions are ongoing. She has left out many facts that were stated. Nobody was accused of anything, and she has not been fired. Now that she has falsely accused the company of improper procedures, due diligence can be followed accordingly," it said.

Indian National Charged In Singapore Over Ship Collision That Killed 1
Singapore: An Indian national was charged in a Singapore court on Wednesday under the Merchant Shipping Act over a collision of two vessels a year ago in which one man was killed and another was badly injured. Soosai Antony Vainer, 35, and a Sri Lankan, Wickramage Viraj Amila Shavinda Perera, 40, were the two crew members on the Singapore-registered Hafnia Nile, which collided on the morning of July 19, 2024, with Ceres I, registered with the Democratic Republic of Sao Tome and Principe, Channel News Asia reported. Perera was the officer in charge of the navigational watch on the Hafnia Nile at that time, the report said, citing charge sheets. Vainer was the duty lookout of the navigational watch, the chargesheet added. Vainer observed that the Hafnia Nile was "approaching close" to the Ceres I, but did not report this to the officer in charge of the navigational watch, his charge alleged. Instead, he allegedly steered the Hafnia Nile when he had not been directed to do so, and failed to keep a proper lookout, resulting in the collision of two tankers, it added. As a result of this failure, the vessel collided with the Ceres I, killing one person on board and injuring another, the charge sheets stated. The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore has brought the prosecution cases against the two men, according to the Channel report. If found guilty, the men can each be jailed for up to two years, fined up to SGD 50,000 or both.
