Russia Blows Up Ukraine's Radar Site After Trump's 50-Day Ultimatum To Putin
The Indian government told the Supreme Court that it has limited options in the case of Nimisha Priya, a Kerala nurse on death row in Yemen. Scheduled to be executed on July 16, Nimisha is accused of murdering her abusive partner, a Yemeni national. Her family has offered ₹8.6 crore as blood money under Sharia law, but the government says it can only operate through private channels, as India has no diplomatic ties with Yemen, which is controlled by Houthi rebels. The Attorney General stated that going public could make matters worse. The Supreme Court has listed the next hearing for July 18, two days after the planned execution.#nimishapriya #yemenexecution #keralanurse #bloodmoney #indiayemencrisis #supremecourtindia #nimishapriyacase #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews

Three, including wife, held for murder in Yadadri
Three individuals, including the victim's wife, were arrested for the murder of a man in Pallerla village, Yadadri-Bhuvanagiri district that was reported on Sunday, July 13. The accused were identified as Gunti Sai Kumar, 33, a farmer from Pallepahad village in Turkapally mandal; Vasthapula Swathi, 35, a private employee and wife of the deceased, from Pallerla village; and Pottepaka Mahesh, 33, a tea stall owner from Atmakur mandal. A fourth accused, Cheemala Ramalinga Swamy, 33, a resident of Thathanagar in Bhongir town, is absconding. Police said Sai Kumar and Swathi first became acquainted between 2017 and 2018 while working in neighbouring shops in Bhongir. Their contact resumed in February 2024. Meanwhile, Swathi's husband, who worked as a manager at a tractor showroom, was involved in a relationship with Savitha, the wife of Mahesh. Mahesh, upset over this, allegedly joined the plan to kill him. Swathi was reportedly facing mental and physical harassment from her husband after confronting him over the affair. On the night of July 13, the victim was returning home from Bhongir on a two-wheeler with a friend, Veerababu. The accused, using a car hired by Sai Kumar with help from the absconding accused, followed the bike. At around 11.15 p.m., on the outskirts of Katepally village along the Raigiri–Mothkur road, they rammed into the bike and dragged it for nearly 120 feet. The man died on the spot. Veerababu was severely injured and taken to Gandhi Hospital in Secunderabad. The police also added relevant sections of the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act to the case. All three accused were arrested from their homes and were produced before court for judicial remand. The search for the fourth accused is ongoing.

Chhattisgarh deports 30 undocumented Bangladeshi immigrants
RAIPUR: Chhattisgarh on Tuesday deported 30 Bangladeshi nationals following an ongoing verification exercise in the state, with the individuals being sent back to their homeland. The undocumented Bangladeshi migrants were taken by flight to Guwahati, where they will be handed over to the Border Security Force (BSF), a police officer said. After initiating the necessary action and completing the process of deportation, all illegal immigrants will be sent across the border into the neighbouring country. The thirty immigrants found staying 'without valid documents' were traced from the districts of Raipur, Durg, Rajnandgaon and Raigarh. They were apprehended following intelligence inputs and some complaints received from local inhabitants about the foreigners staying illegally. According to a senior intelligence officer, some Bangladeshis had even procured Indian passports in Chhattisgarh, travelled to their country, and returned to the state. On Tuesday, the issue of Bangladeshi and Rohingya undocumented immigrants was raised by senior BJP MLA Ajay Chandrakar in the House, claiming that their strength is consistently on the rise in different districts of the state. Chandrakar claimed that illegal immigrants are accessing the benefits of government schemes after they secured documents illegally on the basis of 'false documentation' and the official machinery failing to enforce stringent regulations.

Deputy CM Bhatti gets a ₹25 crore defamation notice from BJP president Ramchander Rao
Telangana BJP president N. Ramchander Rao has slammed a ₹25 crore defamation notice on Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka and sought an unconditional public apology for his 'illegal' and 'unlawful' acts of making false imputations against him with regard to the suicide of University of Hyderabad (UoH) research scholar Rohith Vemula causing him 'serious agony' and 'Irreversible' damage. Mr. Vikramarka has been given three days to apologise or criminal action will be taken claiming damages of ₹25 crore, said the legal notice sent on Tuesday. The notice sent through Mr. Ramchander Rao's advocate M. Vijayakanth and associates, mentions that the Deputy CM at a press conference held in New Delhi at the AICC headquarters has alleged that Mr. Rao was one of the persons responsible for instigating the suicide of the research scholar. The notice stated that the BJP leader was 'absolved' of any involvement in the final report filed by the police in the Court of Special Sessions Judge for Trial of Cases under the SC/ST Act, Ranga Reddy district 'due to lack of evidence'. The police, after examining 59 witnesses and gathering crucial evidence, has held that Mr. Ramchander Rao has not abetted directly or indirectly in the tragic suicide. Yet, Mr. Vikramarka had made 'false statements' which are 'defamatory in nature' with a 'preconceived motive to tarnish the fame and reputation' of the BJP leader, said the notice. Condemning the Deputy CM's statements, the notice said it has caused 'irreversible' damage to the Telangana BJP president's reputation. The notice has cautioned Mr. Vikramarka against making any more such 'false, malicious and defamatory remarks' or further criminal proceedings will be have to be initiated.
