Cop moves HC for bail in MICA student murder case
Ahmedabad: The constable accused of murdering the MICA student approached the Gujarat high court for regular bail after a trial court refused to grant him bail last month. The constable in this case, Virendrasinh Padheriya (37), allegedly stabbed a second-year MBA student, Priyanshu Jain (23), to death in Nov 2024 in the Bopal area of the city following an incident of road rage. Padheriya was posted with the Sarkhej police then. He fled the city after the incident, and was nabbed from Punjab a couple of days later. The trial court rejected Padheriya's bail application considering the gravity of the offence. In his bail plea before the HC, Padheriya contended that allegations levelled against him are "false and baseless and there is no evidence connecting the present applicant with the alleged offence". He also contended, "The alleged incident took place all of a sudden and there was no previous enmity between the applicant and the deceased, and hence there was no intention or motive for the commission of the alleged offence. The same took place in the heat of the moment and therefore, considering the manner in which the incident occurred, the same cannot be the offence punishable under Section 103(1) of the BNS." When the case came up for hearing before Justice M R Mengdey, advocate Aditya Choksi, who represents the victim's family, sought time to register his objection to the bail application. The prosecution also sought time to file a reply to the application. The HC has posted the hearing on July 9.

Nearly 1,000 ships see GPS jams near Iran coast, group says
Nearly 1,000 ships have experienced 'persistent and sometimes severe' GPS signal jams every day the past week near Iran as the country continues to face bombardment from Israel's military, a French naval monitoring firm warned Friday. The Maritime Information, Cooperation and Awareness (MICA) Center wrote in a post on the social platform X that the situation 'makes it harder to navigate safely at night, in poor visibility and/or when traffic density is heavy.' '[It] also can lead to accidental situations,' the group wrote. The MICA Center said it's possible the GPS issue may have contributed to the recent collision of two giant tankers, ADALYNN and Front Eagle, in the Gulf of Oman near the United Arab Emirates, but the organization cautioned that the crash remains under investigation. Israel and Iran have been exchanging strikes for the past week, after Israel launched a surprise attack against Iran's nuclear facilities and military sites. The MICA center noted that maritime trade was not being targeted in an analysis of the military conflict's impact on Wednesday. 'In spite of the media narrative of a potential blockade … there is no information pointing towards a blockade,' the group wrote. It urged ships to avoid Iranian territorial waters and be aware of potential GPS jamming. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
