Woman fakes kidnapping to swap religion

The South Delhi Police have recovered a woman who was so keen to convert to Islam that she staged her own kidnapping.
The woman, a boutique owner from Nagpur, who was reportedly kidnapped from Dilli Haat here, was spotted in Bareilly district of Uttar Pradesh and brought back to the Capital on Thursday.
Varsha Kangra was reported missing from Dilli Haat on June 25 by her husband.
"She was inclined towards to a particular religion and wanted to convert which was objected to by her husband. We found out that she was constantly in touch with several people in Lucknow and Bareilly. This input led to her rescue," said deputy commissioner of police (South) HGS Dhaliwal.
Varsha, her husband Jitendra Kangra and their adopted son had come to the city on vacation and had gone to Dilli Haat along with her cousin.
"Varsha and her cousin went to a washroom and after sometime, Jitendra called her on her mobile phone. Varsha said she had sent her cousin to fetch him. But when he reached near the washroom, he could not find her,” added Dhaliwal.
A little while later, Jitendra received a call from his wife who told him that she had been kidnapped by two-three persons and was inside the boot of their car. After that her cellphone was switched off.
The police conducted raids in the NCR on the basis of information given by the police.
"During interrogation of her relatives and husband, it was found that Varsha had been inclined towards to a particular religion soon after her marriage and wanted to convert but her husband had opposed it. It was further revealed that she was constantly in touch with several people in Lucknow and Bareilly," added Dhaliwal.
The police said Varsha had gone to UP to find ways to convert to the religion of her choice. The police then shifted their focus to the two cities and found Varsha in Bareilly.

Teenage girl makes false RAPE accusation

Another day another fake rape case!!!
Teenager girl alleges gang-rape against four, near a famous Mall in NOIDA. And, even though RAPE was ruled out in Medical Examination, she continued to claim she was gang-raped!!
The motive was simply to extort some money because of her financial needs.


And, here is the usual approach which police adopts when dealing with false cases.
Of course, the police lets go of the girl with "stern warning"!!
Only police can explain what they mean by their stern warning, and why in the first place did they not charge the girl with other offences??
Is she not guilty of cheating, wasting govt. servants time and public money for a false accusation??
If this had been done by a man, first action by police is to let their hands loose at brutal thrashing of the man. Next, they would have piled up sections from IPC/CrPC to teach him a lesson.


But, since, here they were dealing with a girl, they did not try to touch her with any of cheating cases.
What to expect next ??
This gal is having financial needs and wants to fulfill that with some quick, easy, extorted money. So, she is bound to return with better planning next time to make some false case again with some other unsuspecting 'bakra'

New Delhi, 19 Jun 2010


The kidnapping and gang rape complaint made by an 18-year-old girl on Friday turned out to be false.
The police said the girl had planned to blackmail the four men she had accused of raping her. Though the police arrested the teenager, they let her off later with a “stern warning“.
“On Friday evening we received a call from the Delhi Police about kidnapping of a girl from Great India Place Mall area. Immediately police teams traced the Scorpio car and nabbed two suspected kidnappers and recovered the girl. The girl told the police that the two other men, who were with the accused, had run away,“ said R.N. Mishra, Deputy Superintendent of Police.
“The medical examination of the girl revealed no sign of injury at her private parts and no semen was found.
Though rape was ruled out in the medical examination, the girl continued to claim she was gangraped,“ said Mishra.
The girl had told the police that she had come for a job interview but the four men raped her in the car.
The DSP said, “The address given by her was found to be fake. Her sister came from Ghaziabad but she claimed she was her cousin. On detailed interrogation, she revealed her family was facing some financial problem and she was in need of Rs 50,000. She confessed that she made kidnapping and gang rape complaint to extract money.“
“She was handed over to her sister. Though she could have been booked for giving wrong complaint, she was let off with just a stern warning,“ said Mishra

Women arrested for robbery at a woman constable's house

Cops arrest two women for constable house robbery
New Delhi, June 15, 2010

The South Delhi Police have arrested two women for ransacking a head constable’s house three times. The police said the women allegedly took advantage of the constable’s 28-year-old mentally challenged son to steal from the house.

The accused, Anita (43) and Shabana (23), were arrested on Sunday. The police said Shabana knew the head constable Sharda Saini, which is how she got entry into the house. Saini, along with her son, live in Andrews Ganj Police Colony.

According to the police, Saini, a head constable with the licensing department of the Delhi Police, lodged a complaint on May 26, saying her staff quarters were again burgled for the third time in the last six months.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) H.G.S. Dhaliwal said the police noticed the burglaries occurred on Wednesdays when Saini’s son was home alone. The police were thus able to establish that the burglars might know the family.

Dhaliwal said that Shabana came into contact with Saini when the head constable was looking for a match for her son.

Although things didn’t work out, but Shabana won Saini’s confidence during the meetings and found out that the son would be alone in the house on Wednesdays, he said.

According to the DCP, Shabana, along with Anita, would visit the son when he was alone and gain entry into the house. “Shabana then asked him to hand over the keys to where valuables were kept. After taking the valuables, the accused threatened him not to disclose her name to anyone and escaped,” he said.

The police said they have recovered the stolen items.

Woman files RAPE case to coerce live-in partner to marry her

Have a look at these news article:
1) http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/Jet-Airways-co-pilot-held-on-charges-of-raping-air-hostess-/articleshow/5989439.cms


Woman, an air-hostess by profession, goes for live-in with her partner, a pilot, for 1 year. Both work for same airlines Jet Airways.
The relation does not work out for some or the other reason, and then she cries RAPE!!!
Varun Agrawal (27) was arrested from the domestic airport at suburban Vile Parle on charges of raping the 22-year-old air-hostess, who was in a live-in relationship with him, police added. 

He was booked under sections 376 (rape), 420 (cheating), 323 (punishment for voluntarily causing hurt) and 506 (punishment for criminal intimidation), they added.
This is a typical example of how a spate of false RAPE cases are filed in India. The accused is LABELED as GUILTY until proven innocent and the burden is on the accused to prove that he has not committed the crime.


Any sane person upon reading this news can easily make out that this is not a RAPE case but a consensual sex between two consenting adults.
Still, the morons in police not only register the case but also take the guy into custody!!!
Can here be any other motive than to extort money given that pilots are one of the highest earnings cadres in India ??


See again the role of media here. They openly shoot and air this poor chaps photos and videos on TV news channels and print.


2) http://www.hindustantimes.com/Police-should-be-extra-careful-in-this-case/Article1-550526.aspx


Even legal experts are of the opinion that this is not a case of rape, whether pretext of marriage or cheating.

Special public prosecutor Rohini Salian said the complainant is an adult mature enough to decide that she wants to live-in with the pilot. Even if it is assumed that she succumbed to physical relationship under threat, why did she keep quiet for so long, Salian asked. “The police could have conducted an initial inquiry before lodging the FIR,” Salian said. “The facts and circumstance of the case suggest that the pilot should not have been booked for rape.”
Public prosecutor Satish Borulkar agreed saying intercourse with the promise of marriage cannot be rape. “The Supreme Court held in 2009 that sexual intercourse following promise of marriage cannot be construed as rape,” Borulkar said. “The consent is there, even if with a false promise.”

Doesn't this case highlights that our police have scant regards for Supreme Court rulings??

Daughter-in-law robs 75 year old Mother-in-law

Going by the definition of Domestic Violence Act, 2005, of India, a woman can file charges against a relative whosoever financially/economically abuses to her. So, apart from all the IPC/CrPC sections applicable for this offence, the Daughter-in-law should be charged under DV act as well.


BUT, since, the hidden agenda of creating this DV Act was to give supreme powers and the right to claim victimization to a Daughter-in-law only, the poor mother-in-law has been kept out to be an aggrieved party.

A woman and five of her family were arrested on Sunday for allegedly drugging and robbing the woman's 75- year-old mother-in-law.


According to the police, 28- year-old Meetu Talwar, along with her brother, mother, aunt, uncle and cousin-in-law, allegedly drugged Har Kaur before making away with cash and jew- ellery worth over Rs 22 lakh, from her Tilak Nagar residence on May 15.

“We got suspicious after Meetu, (her brother) Kamal Nain and (her mother) Parvinder went missing from their home just a day after the incident,“ said a senior police officer on the condition of anonymity.

The police said the absconding trio came further under the scanner after the police found out the family had been borrowing large sums of money from local lenders.

“It was revealed that Meetu, along with her brother and mother had been indulging in financial deals, which includ- ed mortgage, payment of interest against principle and monthly committee schemes.

It was also learnt that Meetu was in huge debt,“ the officer said.
The trio was finally held from their relatives' house in Hari Nagar.

The officer said Meetu had confessed to the crime and revealed she had borrowed money for her first husband's medical treatment, which she could not pay back. She had also borrowed a large sum from her maternal aunt, which she was under pressure to repay,“ the officer added.

Air hostess has assets disproportionate to her income

New Delhi, May 11, 2010


The CBI’s anti-corruption unit has lodged a case of disproportionate assets against an airhostess working with Air India/Indian Airlines. She allegedly possessed assets worth around Rs 3.62 crore beyond her income.


The accused, Anu Puri, in her early 50s, is of deputy manager rank and posted in Delhi. The CBI swung into action after receiving “information” from “a source” alerting them of the accused’s “corrupt practices”.


The CBI is still ascertaining the “means” through which she amassed her assets. CBI spokesperson, Harsh Bhal, said, “We are probing as to how she gathered Rs 3.62-crore worth of disproportionate assets.”


An assessment of Puri’s moveable and immovable assets by the CBI indicated that she had amassed the assets between 1982 to 2010. “As per our information, she owned properties worth around Rs 4.11 crore in this period,” said an investigator.


“After considering her income from her known sources of income and expenses incurred during 1982-2010, it was found that she had amassed disproportionate income worth Rs 3.62 crore,” he said.


The agency’s team seized cash worth Rs 7.25 lakh from her residence along with some “incriminating documents.” Besides, the team seized documents establishing that Puri owned five flats in south Delhi; another flat in south Delhi is in her father’s name.


Puri has flats in Green Park (A 47 and F 3), Safdarjang Enclave (B 4/237 and B 4 /201), and Anand Niketan (C 103). There is a flat in Safdarjang Enclave (B 4/168) in the name of Puri’s father.

CBI’s spokesperson Harsh Bhal said, “The probe is on to find out how exactly the airhostess gathered 3.62 crore worth of disproportionate assets.”
