Police officers' association condemns YSRCP leaders' remarks
Referring to the comments made by YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leader and former Minister Ambati Rambabu during a programme at Bangarupalem recently that 'a rowdy sheet will be opened against an IPS officer if our party comes to power,' the association said such statements were unacceptable in a democratic set-up.
The association said that permissions had been granted for an interaction with 500 mango farmers as per his request, yet senior officers' directions were ignored.
The association also condemned Chittoor-based YSRCP leader M.C. Vijayananda Reddy's alleged abusive and indecent remarks against Two-Town Circle Inspector Nettikantayya and Sub-Inspector Ramesh Babu while they were trying to control clashes between two groups in Chittoor recently.
The association said both the officers had acted lawfully under the orders of senior officials. The allegations that Mr. Nettikantayya had ordered a power-cut in the area during the clashes were false, it said.
On suspension of the Personal Security Officer assigned to YSRCP Punganur MLA Peddireddi Ramachandra Reddy, the association said action had been taken for negligence in VIP security and not for political reasons as was alleged by former Tirupati MLA Bhumana Karunakara Reddy.

Moose Wala's mother calls gunfire at son's statue a wound on her soul
1 2 Bathinda: Charan Kaur, the mother of slain Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala , has issued an emotional and powerful statement on social media after a statue of her son was fired upon near the Punjab-Haryana border. In a hard-hitting post on Tuesday, Kaur called the incident an attack on the memory of her son and a wound on their soul. She said that the statue was not merely a piece of stone, but a symbol of the honor and love his fans hold for him. "My son was turning into a sound for the rights of people, and efforts are being made to silence him even after his demise," she wrote. "This attack is like an injury to our soul. The enemies of my son's life are not leaving him even after his demise. You can beat him, but his memory cannot be erased. He is like a movement that will remain forever. I only want to say that one day the guilty will surely get punishment; our silence is not our defeat," she said. The statue, erected by Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) youth wing Haryana president Digvijay Chautala, was the target of gunshots. The incident came to light after Chautala received a threatening video message from a Cyprus-based WhatsApp number about a week ago, showing the firing at the statue. The message also contained a threat that after Moose Wala's killing, his sympathisers would be next.

Falcon fraud: Rs 21 cr diverted to Goa casino, says Enforcement Directorate
Hyderabad: Enforcement Directorate's (ED's) investigation into the Falcon invoice fraud found that Amardeep Kumar, the key accused and director of Capital Protection Force Pvt Ltd, has allegedly diverted nearly Rs 21 crore to a Goa-based casino between 2021 and 2023, using both company and personal accounts. The casino alerted financial intelligence agencies regarding suspicious high-value transactions linked to Amardeep Kumar. Capital collected investments worth Rs 792 crore from investors under the guise of 'Falcon Invoice Discounting Scheme'. The accused promised investors high returns by claiming the investments would be used for invoice discounting activities. An app named 'Falcon Invoice' was developed to collect deposits and was promoted through Google, YouTube, and other digital platforms. However, the probe found that no actual invoice discounting business existed. ED stated that the scam proceeds were instead diverted to various personal and business interests of Amardeep. These include investments in equity shares, unsecured loans to companies, the purchase of an aircraft, and the acquisition of immovable properties. Properties were found registered in the names of Amardeep, his family members, Rhett Healthcare Pvt Ltd, and Rhett Herbal Pvt Ltd. A portion of the proceeds of crime was allegedly routed to a prominent casino in Goa. In March 2025, ED had seized a private jet — Hawker 800A — allegedly bought by Amardeep using proceeds from the scam.

The personal accounts of Amardeep had already received large sums — Rs 55 crore and Rs 35 crore respectively — from the Capital Protection Force company's main account. ED had found that Rs 2.82 crore was transferred directly from the account of Capital Protection Force Pvt Ltd to the company owned by the casino between Oct 2021 and March 2023. Another Rs 16.3 crore was routed from Amardeep's personal account — into which approximately Rs 55 crore was earlier received from the company — between April 2021 and Feb 2023. Additionally, Rs 1.15 crore was transferred between May 2023 and July 2023 from another personal account of Amardeep, which received about Rs 35 crore from the company's funds.
