The sentencing was pronounced by the additional district judge-cum-special Pocso court, Jagatsinghpur. The convict, Aman Razak, a resident of Narsinghpur district in Madhya Pradesh, was also fined Rs 10,000 by judge Gargi Patnaik. Failure to pay the fine would result in an additional six-month imprisonment. The court has also directed the Odisha State Legal Services Authority to provide Rs 1.5 lakh compensation to the victim.

Cow gives birth to three calves in Hubbali, vets call it miracle

NAVALGUND/DHARWAD: In a rarest of the rare instances, a cow at Gudadakeri Oni in Navlgund taluk gave birth to three calves on Friday. The mother cow and the calves are healthy. This has become the talk of the town and people are throning the house of the cow owner to see the cow and calves. Veterinary experts in the taluk expressed their joy and said, in their service, they had never heard or seen such a miracle. The owner of the cow, Abdul Razak, who has a lot of affection for cows, purchased the cow at Kittur cattle market in Belagavi district for Rs 70,000 two years ago. At present, he is having three more cows and three calves apart from the cow which has given birth to the triad. Speaking to TNIE, Razak said he is a farmer and looks after agricultural activities along with his father Sayad Basha Huggi. The cow is around five years old. Last year, veterinary doctor H P Savanur had performed artificial insemination. Of the three calves, two are male and one female. 'We have always believed that a cow brings good fortune and now, with the birth of the three calves, our belief has become stronger. In the earlier two lactations, the cow gave birth to a single calf each time. The mother cow is a cross breed of jersey and local bull. We used to feed some dairy products available for cattle and common fodder like grass. The cow has earned name and fame for us', he added.

Malaysia's 2025 ASEAN chair to focus on digital trade, regional integration

Malaysia's 2025 chairmanship of ASEAN will focus on strengthening regional integration and digital trade through concrete initiatives, the chairman of the ASEAN Business Advisory Council said. In an interview, Tan Sri Nazir Razak said Malaysia's leadership is expected to influence the region's development with initiatives that are part of a long-term strategy, including the ASEAN Community Vision 2045 and a five-year strategic development plan. He said these were essential for aligning long-term objectives with actionable measures. 'We have a five-year plan, but also within that there are specific targets for this year alone,' Razak said in an exclusive interview at the TV BRICS studio at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) in the Roscongress International Cooperation Area. He identified the upgrade of the ASEAN Trade in Goods Agreement (ATIGA) and the Digital Economic Framework Agreement as key initiatives. He described the digital framework as 'the first international legally binding agreement for digital business across the region.' Commenting on relations with Russia, Razak emphasised the long-standing diplomatic ties between the two countries, which began in 1967. He noted that the Malaysian prime minister has visited Russia twice and that recent visits have resulted in positive developments. Razak stressed the importance of deepening business ties through practical engagement and a detailed understanding of how trade operates under current global conditions. 'We need to increase trade between Malaysia and Russia as well as to increase investments both ways,' he stated.

Standard Chartered faces $2.7 billion legal action over fraud allegations from Malaysia's 1MDB fund

Liquidators of the State-owned 1MDB (1Malaysia Development Berhad), a sovereign wealth fund, have filed a lawsuit against Standard Chartered Bank, alleging that the bank enabled fraud which led to more than $2.7 billion in financial losses over 10 years ago, reported the news agency Reuters on Tuesday, 1 July 2025. According to the agency report, Standard Chartered has rejected the claims of its involvement in any form of enabling fraud. The sovereign wealth fund has filed the case in a Singapore court. The liquidators are trying to recover money that belongs to 1MDB. Of the total money that is expected to be recovered, nearly $4.5 billion was stolen between 2009 and 2014 in a complex, globe-spanning scheme, as per the US investigators cited in the agency report. 1MDB liquidators from the financial services firm Kroll are seeking to hold Standard Chartered accountable for allegedly enabling fraud against 1MDB. Three companies which are involved in the liquidation of 1MDB reportedly claimed that Standard Chartered permitted over 100 intrabank transfers between 2009 and 2013 that helped conceal the flow of stolen funds. 'According to this lawsuit, the transfers demonstrate serious breaches and control failings which ultimately enabled the theft of public funds by people operating at the highest levels of the Malaysian government during that period,' they said, reported the news agency. As per the report, the institutional lender has not received any legal filing documents. 'Any claims by these companies are without merit and Standard Chartered will vigorously defend any lawsuit commenced by the liquidators,' they told the news agency. The report also highlighted that the liquidators of 1MDB alleged that the firms involved were shell companies with no legitimate business and were linked to alleged 1MDB's Low Taek Jho, a mastermind and fugitive who denied any wrongdoing. The liquidators also claimed that the funds flowing through the Standard Chartered accounts included transfers to the personal bank account of former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak. Razak is serving a six-year prison sentence after being convicted of graft linked to 1MDB. The transfer of funds is also allegedly involved in business payments and purchases of jewellery and luxury goods for Razak's wife and stepson, reported the new agency, citing the liquidators. At least six countries, including Singapore and Switzerland, have launched investigations into 1MDB dealings in a global investigation. However, the Board of 1MDB welcomed the move by the court-appointed liquidators. 'The Malaysian people were the true victims of this global fraud, and all parties are determined to hold every facilitator to account - including financial institutions that failed in their most basic duties of vigilance and responsibility,' a spokesperson of the board told the news agency.
