Guntur SP inspects traffic diversions for ROB construction
Guntur: Superintendent of Police S Satish Kumar on Sunday personally inspected various traffic diversion points in Guntur city, implemented due to the ongoing construction of a Road Over Bridge (ROB) at Sankar Vilas Centre. The SP offered crucial suggestions to minimise inconvenience for commuters navigating the altered routes. The SP visited key locations including Sankar Vilas Bridge (Broadiepet side), Kankaragunta Railway Underbridge, Mudu Vantenala Centre, and Kothapeta Sivalayam. He meticulously examined the traffic diversions and advised traffic police officials to thoroughly assess peak traffic hours in these areas. He stressed the importance of arranging efficient alternative routes to prevent congestion. He further instructed officials to deploy adequate traffic personnel at major roads, key junctions, and diversion points that typically experience heavy vehicular movement. The SP emphasised the necessity of a well-planned strategy, proper coordination among departments, and an efficient information system to resolve any traffic issues promptly. During the inspection, traffic police officials brought to the SP's attention the persistent problem of water logging at the Kankaragunta Railway Underbridge and Mudu Vantenala Centre during rainfall, which severely impedes vehicle movement. In response, SP Satish Kumar assured them that he would discuss the issue with the district collector and the Municipal Commissioner. He committed to conducting a joint field inspection with them to identify and implement necessary remedial measures. The SP appealed to the public and commuters to extend their full cooperation with the traffic regulations being implemented by the police to ensure smooth traffic flow and prevent any related issues. Traffic DSP Ramesh, West DSP Aravind, SB CI Alahari Srinivas, Traffic CIs Ashok and Singayya, Nagarampalem CI Nazir Baig, Arundelpet CI Arogyaraju, Traffic SIs Ravindra Babu, Sambasiva Rao Naik, and other officials were present.

Frustration in B.C. as extortion suspects released 1 day after high-profile arrests
A Surrey, B.C., business owner targeted in ongoing extortion attempts in the region says police and the province still aren't doing enough to break up the dangerous shakedowns. It comes a day after police announced two arrests related to the extortion racket, but RCMP confirmed Friday that the suspects have already been released without charge. 4:07 RCMP reveal few details about arrests made in Surrey extortion investigation At a press conference Thursday, police refused to share any specific details about the suspects, including age, sex or their status in Canada. Story continues below advertisement Business owner Satish Kumar said he was 'very frustrated' with the press conference. 'What the hell are they doing? They shouldn't do the press conference unless they have a concrete answer,' Kumar said. Kumar is one of a number of Lower Mainland business owners, many of them of South Asian descent, who have been targeted since 2023 for large sums of money, in some cases up to $2 million.

He said he wants to see more urgent action. 2:46 RCMP say 2 arrested in Surrey extortion attempts 'Even like the NDP, you know, like (Public Safety) Minister Garry Begg, they do nothing right now,' he said. Story continues below advertisement 'People are not safe in the community. You know I'm still getting extortion calls. My extortion calls are not stopped yet, because I'm facing those guys still.' Asked at an unrelated press conference Friday about the lack of detail provided by police, Begg said the arrests were a step forward in a process that isn't finished yet. 'This is a continuous and ongoing investigation that the police locally, provincially and federally have been involved in. This doesn't indicate the end of the investigation,' he said. 'This is merely the police announcing that they have arrested two people who are in custody in relation to these ongoing offences.' 1:55 B.C. government launches extortion awareness campaign Chief Supt. Elija Rain, Officer in Charge of the B.C. RCMP Major Crimes Section said Thursday's announcement of arrests 'marked a turning point.' Story continues below advertisement 'I think there will be more information to follow, but at this point, I think we should celebrate it as a positive first step on dealing with that matter which has plagued this province in recent months.' Extortion victims, however, remain frustrated that no charges have been laid in B.C. in relation to the ongoing extortion attempts. By comparison, more than 100 charges have been laid in similar investigations in Alberta and Ontario since last year. 'What's the celebration there, like just a press conference saying we arrested two guys with no charges,' Kumar said. 'Nothing there.' Under Canadian law, police can't hold a suspect for over 24 hours without charges. Ultimately, it will be up to Crown prosecutors to decide if and when police have advanced enough evidence to meet the standard for charge approval. –with files from Rumina Daya
