‘Accept EC’s decision…’: Sharad Pawar’s advice to Uddhav Thackeray

Mumbai: The loss of `bow and arrow’ will not make any difference to the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena as people will accept its new poll symbol, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar said on Friday.
Pawar, whose party is an ally of Thackeray’s, also recalled that the Congress under Indira Gandhi had to choose a new symbol in 1978, but it had no negative consequences for the party.
He was responding to the Election Commission’s decision to recognise the Eknath Shinde-led faction as the genuine Shiv Sena and bestow the original ‘bow and arrow’ symbol on it.
‘Accept the decision’
“Once a decision is given, there can be no discussion. Accept it, take a new symbol. It (loss of the old symbol) is not going to have any impact,” the NCP chief advised the Thackeray group.
He recalled that Indira Gandhi faced a similar situation in the aftermath of the Emergency.
“Congress used to have the ‘two bullocks with a yoke’ symbol. After they lost it, they adopted ‘hand’ as the new symbol, and people accepted it. Similarly, people will accept the new symbol (of the Uddhav faction),” the veteran politician said.

Mumbai Crime: 2 Criminals Externed Months Ago Arrested For Juhu Murder, Had Returned To City Seeking Revenge For Friend’s Death

Mumbai: Two of the three men accused of murdering a 27-year-old man in Mumbai’s Juhu on Sunday morning had been externed from the city just months ago due to their repeated involvement in violent crimes, police said. Cops believe the duo returned to Mumbai specifically to settle an old score with the victim.
Juhu Police identified the arrested accused as Parmeshwara Devendra and Kishan Devendra, both residents of Nehru Nagar, located barely 300 metres from the police station. The third suspect remains on the run. According to officials, both Parmeshwara and Kishan have a history of serious offences, including assault and attempted murder and were ordered out of the city under preventive action.
The victim, Krishna Devendra, also from Nehru Nagar, had a turbulent history with the accused. Several years ago, Krishna was arrested for allegedly killing one of their friends. Although he was later released from jail, the animosity between the two sides persisted. Officers believe this long-standing enmity led the accused to return to Mumbai in defiance of the externment order to execute their plan for revenge.
The incident occurred at around 4 am on Sunday when Krishna was waiting at a bus stop. Armed with knives, Parmeshwara, Kishan, and the third accomplice allegedly attacked him without warning. Krishna suffered multiple stab wounds and collapsed on the spot. He was rushed to Cooper Hospital by locals, but doctors declared him dead upon arrival.
Following the attack, the Juhu Police launched an intensive manhunt. CCTV footage from the area and statements from witnesses quickly pointed to the suspects. Parmeshwara was tracked down and arrested from Vile Parle by Sunday evening, while Kishan was apprehended later the same night in the vicinity. The search for the third accused continues. Both arrested suspects are scheduled to be produced before the Andheri court on Monday.

Mumbai: BKC Police File FIR Against Illegal ‘Close Friends Traders’ Platform For Luring 500+ Investors; 2 Booked

Mumbai: The BKC police have registered an FIR against ‘Close Friends Traders’, an unregistered trading platform, and two persons for allegedly cheating people.
The platform claimed to offer Demat accounts without documents and lured over 500 margins into trading with promises of high margins. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) discovered an advertisement for ‘Close Friends Traders’ in a Hindi newspaper on July 13, claiming it was India’s largest platform for margin trading and offering “dabba trading.”
The NSE found no registration for the platform and issued a notice on July 15, stating it was an illegal trading platform. The inquiry revealed the two mobile numbers were registered in the names of Raju Mataprasad and Hariprakash, both from Delhi. The police registered the case under the Banning of Unregulated Deposit Schemes Act, 2019, and sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for cheating and common intention.
