WB Police: Kolkata Police: लूट,चोरी में कितना गोल्ड ज़ब्त हुआ, ये तो पुलिस थाने वाले हिसाब लगा लेते है, इशारा समझ जाएं
City police are fast acquiring an unchallengeable expertise in valuing gold. The police have become very much capable in this trade, more than any expert in the market.
The method which the police have adopted to value gold seems to be uniquely designed for the department’s convenience. The gold would be rated low in case a person is robbed and its value would be high if the police have recovered it from a thief!
The policemen value the gold, whether pure or impure, by finding out the year in which it was bought and then making a comparative study. “The police delve into the history of the concerned family to calculate value of gold today,” said a social worker. He also added, “Police also have been showing sound understanding of socioeconomic changes in the country. They have nearly triggered a need for research on India’s matrimonial patterns by assuming
that most Indians married prior to 80s to avoid high gold prices.”
It so happened that burglars recently struck at a trader’s place in Manav Nagar and made away with 20 tola of gold. Mahesh Tiwari, the trader, was left aghast by the amount of loss that the police cited in the official record. “I had repeatedly told the police that gold costing more than Rs 5 lakh was stolen from my house. But the cops kept on ignoring my pleas. They said that the value of 20 tola gold stolen from my place was only Rs 1.50 lakh,” said an
exasperated Tiwari.
According to an expert, the value of gold at present is around Rs 22,000 per 10 grams. He opined that the yellow metal would not be priced less wherever it is valued. “A bullion trader would purchase gold at the present rate in the market irrespective of whether it had been valued by police or thief,” said the expert.
The Akbanis from Mahesh Nagar had lost more than eight-and-half tola gold after their house was recently burgled. The cops calculated their loss to be less than Rs 1 lakh. The Akbanis were left speechless by the cops’ valuation.
Last week the crime branch police nabbed the thief, who had burgled the Akbanis’ place, and recovered the valuables. But dramatically the value of recovered gold changed.
“We have recovered gold worth more than Rs 1.20 lakhs that was stolen from Akbani’s place,” said a crime branch official. The very gold that had been valued at a lesser rate suddenly gained value after it was recovered by the police. “The calculator that the police use, seem to be a very faithful and unique gadget,” said a social worker.
Police seem to have devised various ways to defeat a burglary victim in arguments regarding the rate of gold. Tiwari recalled some questions that the cops asked him regarding the value of loss at his place. “I was asked to furnish the list of the gold ornaments stolen and produce bills for each item,” he said. “They wanted me to find out from my family whether the details of the gold purchases were available. The cops asked me to contact my relatives for bills of the purchases they made while gifting me or my wife a gold ornament,” said Tiwari.
Another person, whose house was recently burgled, said that the police inquiry into the theft sounded as if they were working for the income tax department too. “Cops were so fascinated with gold bills that it seemed as if they wanted to audit my family’s wealth and not record the theft,” he said.

WB Police: Kolkata Police: पुलिस वाले भी स्टिंग ऑपरेशन करते है, और कैसे पकड़ लेते है झूठ
Sleuthing, strategies and hot chases are all very well, but there are times when cops have use that other potent weapon: sweet talk. In some cases, when the going gets tough, cops find it best to go smooth, often finding culprits walking straight into the trap.
Shivlal Kukwas, a known criminal, recently found out that cops had turned on the charm to nail him. Kukwas and his gang members were caught by crime branch for a burglary. Police knew he had stashed the stolen Rs 1.10 lakh somewhere. But Kukwas had clammed up during questioning.
So, the investigators planned a trick. They found out about Rajesh Patle, who is Kukwas's best friend, from his cell phone details. The cops called up Rajesh and posed as ardent sympathizers of Kukwas. "Please arrange for a good lawyer for him. We being police have to take action but we feel sorry for Kukwas," the cops told Patle.
Having softened him up thus, the cops then told Patle: "You have the money that Kukwas gave you. Please use the cash for his bail and lawyer's fee." Patle, the good friend that he was, fell for the spiel. He came with the cash to meet the lawyer and was trapped. Police recovered the stolen cash and also took him into custody for helping a criminal.
While smooth talk can get a criminal nailed, it can also let an innocent person off the hook. A couple of years ago, senior inspector PV Bele of Hudkeshwar police station, planned a similar trick to exonerate a man from a false rape charge. The officer had smelled something fishy in a minor girl's claim that a man had raped her. Wanting to know the truth, Bele gave the girl his personal cellphone to talk to her brother. "Talk to your brother and lighten your heart," Bele told her, sympathy personified. Inside his mind, however, his ploy was playing out. The canny cop had turned on the voice recorder on his cellphone before handing it over to the girl.
After talking to her brother, the girl handed back the cellphone to Bele, who asked her to relax. Back in his chamber, Bele listened to the girl's conversation and found out that she was framing an innocent man in a bid to save her elder sister's husband. A DNA analysis had already proved that the man the girl had accused was not the one who had impregnated her. It was Bele's act that helped police know who the real culprit was.
Another officer told a story about a gang of fraudsters that was stonewalling the cops' grilling. After days of frustration, the cops, one fine day, walked into the room of an accused. They were in celebratory mood and were congratulating each other. "The man got thoroughly confused at this sight. We told him that the other accused had spilled the beans and fingered him as the main culprit. Enraged at his 'back-stabbing' buddies, the man revealed all the secrets and was nailed," said the officer.

Delhi Police: Anna Hazare: सांसद बोले- इन टीवी चैनलों ने तो हमारा सोना,रोना, खाना-पीना, सब हराम कर दिया है, सिर्फ अन्ना ही अन्ना दिखा रहे हैं, हमें तो कभी इतना नहीं दिखाया???
Role of television channels came in for sharp criticism in Parliament with members accusing them of giving too much coverage to Anna Hazare's crusade against corruption. "Is dibbe se bahut dikkat hai" (This idiot box gives a lot of trouble)," said Sharad Yadav (JD-U) in the Lok Sabha,
referring to the non-stop coverage of Hazare's indefinite fast at Ramlila Maidan in the capital.
The private news channels are so obsessed with Hazare that they have stopped showing other important news especially floods in different parts of the country particularly in eastern India, he said, participating in a debate on the Lokpal issue.
He wondered why Congress MPs regularly visit TV studios, participate in the discussions and subject themselves to scrutiny by "Bengali babu moshai".
Amid frequent applause from all sections of the House, Yadav said, "The country is not run by discussions on television channels, but by debates in Parliament".
The 24-hour news channels, he added, "are not allowing us to sleep."
BSP leader Dara Singh Chauhan too said that television channels do a lot to improve their TRP ratings.
Rewati Raman Singh (SP) demanded that both electronic and print media should be brought under ambit of the Lokpal.
DMK member TKS Elangovan too attacked the media for its role in the movement saying it has turned the crusade against corruption into a fight against Parliament and Constitution.
"In democracy people are the judges and not media", he added.

Police Health: ड्यूटी के पहले या ड्यूटी के बाद, 15 मिनट की वॉक और सीढ़ियां चढ़े, स्वस्थ रहे...
MUMBAI: The city's concrete jungle provides little space for health and fitness. Footpaths and walkways are non-existent , cycling tracks are an alien concept and gyms are an expensive proposition. So, what should a harried-for-time Mumbaikar do to shed the extra flab?
Doctors say that it is not difficult to stay fit in the city despite its unfriendly environment. From climbing stairs to walking through the city's hustle-bustle , Mumbaikars can stay fit with just a little effort.
Dr Archana Juneja, endocrinologist at Seven Hills Hospital in Andheri, says, "People should make it a habit to take a 15-minute stroll after every meal. Climb stairs instead of taking the lift." She concedes that although doctors advise their patients to exercise, the options are limited in the city.
Last week, a Taiwanese study changed a well-accepted fitness regimen: Instead of the daily 30-minute exercise mantra that doctors had so far recommended, the new study said that even 15 minutes of moderate intensity daily workout would do the trick. The study followed patients with heart problems, cancer and kidney problems over 12 years and found that even this most minimum regimen helped patients stay fitter.
"Any form of physical activity is better than no physical activity . Short duration also works, but longer the duration of exercise , the better,'' says a doctor.
Cardiac surgeon Pawan Kumar says that his advice to patients who walk into his consulting room is to "walk into to the neighbourhood gym if you can afford it" or start climbing the stairs every time. "Aerobic exercises that help the heart should be practised for 45 minutes at least three times a week."
Doctors concur that even modern exercise forms such as power yoga can help. 'If you begin with 10 power yoga surya namaskar exercises in a minute, stepping up to 30 a minute would be great,' says a surgeon.
Bariatric surgeon Dr Sanjay Borude has a detailed plan worked out. "People have to walk 6 km at a stretch within an hour. They can cycle a few kilometres more within the same time span." He says that swimming - more vigourous than cycling or walking - for half an hour is a good idea too. "People should do 100-metre laps."
Dr Borude has a special note for cyclists who exercise for health reasons. "If a cyclist dresses up for the exercise, complete with the cycling gear, he or she is likely to find that even bus drivers will be careful with them." Best of all, he says, there is no real need for a gym to stay fit.
CALORIE BUSTERS
Doctors prescribe easy-to follow exercise regimen Do moderate workout for 15 to 30 minutes, daily Always climb stairs Walk briskly to break into a sweat Some doctors say one should walk a kilometre within 10 minutes Beginning from 2 km a day, one could step it up to 6 km a day If possible, occasionally swim and cycle

Mumbai Police: Encounter Specialist Daya Nayak: 83 एनकाउंटर वाले दया नायक फिर मुसीबत में, कर्नाटक लोकायुक्त ने खदान मामले में आरोप लगाया
MUMBAI: The controversial suspended encounter specialist, Daya Nayak, looks set for fresh trouble after the Karnataka Lokayukta accused him, along with a former Karnataka chief minister and a businessman friend, for putting 'tremendous pressure' on a senior bureaucrat to clear files pertaining to illegal mining in that state.
Former lokayukta Santosh Hegde recently submitted his report to the government. The report referred a file noting of the commissioner (mines and geology department) in 2007, where he had mentioned Nayak's name.
Nayak , who claimed that he had killed 83 criminals in encounters in his police service, has been under Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) scanner in Sadik Jamal murder case in Gujarat. The police had killed Jamal in an alleged fake encounter in Gujarat in 2003. It is alleged that Nayak had handed over Jamal to the Gujarat police to eliminate him . Two months ago, the Gujarat high court handed over the investigation to CBI . The Mumbai unit of Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) had arrested Nayak in a disproportionate assets case in 2006; he was released on bail later. Mumbai police then suspended him from service . The ACB has twice asked the director-general of police for permission to prosecute him in the case but both times it was denied. Nayak was expecting his reinstatement in the force but the recent development may put it on again off track.
Hegde, in his report on illegal mining in Karnataka, noted that a Mumbai-based controversial
businessman hatched the conspiracy and obtained permission for mining . The businessman submitted forged letters of ministry of environment and forests (MoEF), Government of India
to the Karnataka government claiming that the Centre had given his firm clearance for mining.
Nayak, along with the then Karnataka chief minister, H D Kumaraswamy, and the businessman friend, had put pressure on the bureaucrat to clear the mining files on the basis of the submitted letters, the report states. Kumaraswamy, according to the report, gave the bureaucrats a two-hours ultimatum to clear the files, following which the Karnataka government allowed the businessman mining rights. It was later found that one of the two letters submitted by the businessman was stolen.
Nayak's businessman friend is a Juhu resident and an accused in a cheating case. Six months ago, the Economic Offences Wing of the Mumbai police went to arrest him a day before his son's wedding, when Nayak rushed for his rescue and used his influence to avoid the arrest
. The businessman's son recently married the daughter of a top bureaucrat at a posh Worli hotel.

Mumbai Police: आप भी क्या कमाते होंगे, जितना इस चैन स्नेचर ने कमाया...
KALYAN: The police have nabbed a 39-year-old chain-snatcher but were shocked to learn later that he had two wives and had assets, including a car, totally worth over Rs 70 lakh. The accused was caught on August 16 when he tried to snatch the gold chain of a woman at a rally in support of anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare here. Both wives from Kalyan and Navi Mumbai were not aware that he had married twice.
Nazir Shaikh, 39, was caught by local resident Ritesh Phadke when he tried to snatch the chain of Meenal Parekh near a photo studio in Kalyan (W) and was handed over to the Bazarpeth police station.
The police initially thought Shaikh was a normal criminal, but investigations showed he owned properties in Navi Mumbai and Kalyan. One fully furnished flat is in a posh locality in New Panvel, the police said, and added that he also has a Maruti WagonR for travel and a motorcycle to commit the offences.
When the police visited the accused's second wife's residence in New Panvel, to find out about his background, she was unaware about his criminal activities as he had claimed he was in the real estate business.
The police said he was not cooperating with them.
"Initially, he denied any involvement but later he admitted a role in five cases. We suspect he earned the lakhs from chain-snatching as he has not revealed any other source of income," said B S Sonawane, assistant police inspector. The police on Friday produced Shaikh in the Kalyan court, which remanded him to police custody till August 31.
