Thane: Two Minor Girls Missing From Sainik Chawl Area In Kalyan; Police Launch Probe

Thane: Two minor girls, aged 15 and 16, from Sainik Chawl in Amardeep Vasahati, Kalyan West, have been missing for the past five days, raising serious concerns among their families. A complaint has been filed at Manpada Police Station, where it is suspected that the girls were abducted by an unknown individual.
According to the report, Ashabai Ganpat Kale, the mother of the 15-year-old girl, reported the disappearance and filed a formal complaint under Section 137(2) of the Indian Penal Code, 2023. The girls are residents of Sainik Chawl, and their families are engaged in the small trade of selling lemon and chilli.
The family originally hails from Pardhi Tanda, Pandadhari village in Jat taluka, Sangli district. The disappearance of both girls has caused deep distress within the family. Despite ongoing efforts, their whereabouts remain unknown.
The two girls have been missing since 12 noon on August 30. Initially, the family believed the girls might have gone out to see public Ganpati idols in Kalyan, as part of the Ganeshotsav celebrations. However, when they failed to return even after mealtime, the family grew concerned and began searching for them in the surrounding area, as per the report.
They contacted the girls’ school friends and checked with relatives, but the girls were not found. After an extensive but unsuccessful search throughout Kalyan, the family lodged a police complaint, suspecting they may have been lured and abducted.
Senior Police Inspector Sandipan Shinde has taken serious note of the matter and has formed special teams to trace the missing girls. Additionally, Assistant Police Inspector Rupali Karkade is conducting a parallel investigation to ensure a thorough probe into the incident. Police are actively investigating the case, and efforts are ongoing to locate the minors.

Maharashtra: Gadchiroli Police Destroy Maoist Monuments, Arrest Naxal Supporter During Anti-Maoist Operations

Gadchiroli: Police recently destroyed two Maoist-erected monuments and arrested a Naxal supporter actively involved in violent activities against security forces. Officials said both actions were part of ongoing anti-Maoist operations aimed at eliminating fear from local communities.
On September 30, a police team from Poste Katezari, along with SRPF personnel, was conducting a search operation in the Katezari and Marma forest areas of Mauja Katezari. During the operation, they found two Maoist monuments, erected two to three years ago, intended to spread fear and show Maoist presence in the region.
After inspection by the bomb disposal team, both monuments were demolished and destroyed. Police said that, with the cooperation of local citizens, trees were planted at the site as a symbol of peace.
Superintendent of Police, Gadchiroli, Nilotpal, said: “The Gadchiroli police is trying to free citizens from the terror of the Maoists. Such memorials have no place in society, and people are urged not to participate in such illegal constructions.”
In a separate incident on September 29, while security forces were conducting an anti-Maoist operation in the Bhamragad area, they received information about a suspicious person allegedly conducting reconnaissance of security forces.
The man was detained and later identified as Sainu alias Sannu Amlu Mattami (38), a resident of Poyarkothi, Bhamragad. Investigations revealed he was a staunch Naxal supporter involved in violent activities, including an encounter between police and Maoists in the Koparshi-Phulnar jungle area on August 27, 2025.
Mattami was arrested on September 30.
According to officials, since January 2022, Gadchiroli police have arrested a total of 110 Maoists, a result of sustained anti-Maoist operations in the district.
