"Torture": Court Raps UP Police For Detaining Pregnant Woman For 6 Hours

The Allahabad High Court has come down heavily on the Uttar Pradesh Police for "unlawfully detaining" a pregnant woman accompanied by her two-year-old child for over six hours to record her statement in a kidnapping case filed by her family, terming it "abuse of authority" and "torture". It directed the police to pay Rs 1 lakh to the eight-month pregnant woman and instructed the state government to issue guidelines for police to handle cases involving women more carefully. The woman's family had lodged a complaint with the Agra Police, claiming she was kidnapped in August 2021 while on her way to appear for an exam. An FIR was lodged but investigation into the case did not see much progress. During the hearing of a habeas corpus petition filed by the woman's husband, their counsels Raghvendra P Singh and Mohd Sheraj refuted the kidnapping charge, saying she got married and has been living with her husband in Lucknow. The petitioner's counsel...

कुंठा और बदले की राजनीति कर रहे राहुल गांधी : अदाणी ग्रुप पर आरोप को लेकर बोले मनीष बरियार

राहुल गांधी की पिछले एक-डेढ़ साल के अंदर की राजनीति देखें, तो उसमें हिंडनबर्ग रिसर्च की रिपोर्ट से लेकर SEBI पर लगे आरोप, संविधान, आरक्षण को लेकर भ्रम फैलाना... सवाल उठता है कि राहुल गांधी आखिर किस तरह की राजनीति कर रहे हैं? क्या झूठ और भ्रम के दम पर विपक्ष का नेता अपनी राजनीति चमका सकता है? इसके जवाब में पॉलिटिकल एनालिस्ट मनीष बरियार कहते हैं, "राहुल गांधी के लिए एक शब्द इस्तेमाल किया जा सकता है. वह शब्द है 'कुंठा'. राहुल गांधी कुंठा की राजनीति करते हैं."   मनीष बरियार कहते हैं, "मुझे लगता है कि वह अभी भी इस बात से नाराज हैं कि उनके परिवार पर बोफोर्स घोटाले के आरोप लगे थे. जिस तरह से मीडिया और बाकी राजनीतिक दल राहुल गांधी के परिवार और कांग्रेस पार्टी के खिलाफ काफी कुछ सबूत लेकर आए... इससे उन्हें घोर नाराजगी है." बरियार कहते हैं, "मुझे लगता है कि राहुल गांधी किसी न किसी तरह से अपने विरोधियों पर ऐसे आरोप लगाकर अपनी मन को एक तरह से शांति दे रहे हैं. ये बदले की राजनीति है. इसमें समझ कहीं भी नहीं है. उन्हें ये भी समझ नहीं आ रहा कि वो जिस तरह की राजन...

A 5-Minute Brain Scan Can Reveal Risk Of Psychosis In Patients: Study

A "single five-minute" brain scan could help predict individuals at risk of experiencing psychosis, according to a study. Brain scans of psychosis patients revealed that regions processing information from senses were weakly connected to each other and strongly connected to the thalamus -- which acts as a "relay station" for sensory and movement information to the brain. "A single five-minute scan could potentially improve our ability to predict which at-risk individuals will transition to a psychotic disorder, which in turn could allow for more timely treatments or interventions," author Brian Keane, an assistant professor of neuroscience at the University of Rochester, said. Researchers analysed MRI scans from 159 participants, including 105 who developed a psychotic disorder up to five years prior to testing. A psychotic disorder -- schizophrenia, manic phase of bipolar disorder -- involves losing touch with reality and developing symptoms such as h...

Ashok Gehlot's Ex-Aide Arrested In 2020 Phone-Tapping Case

Delhi Police has arrested Lokesh Sharma, the former OSD to ex-Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, in a phone-tapping case of 2020 based on a complaint lodged by Union minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, officials said on Monday. However, Sharma was granted bail soon after his arrest by the Crime Branch, police said. In April this year, Sharma claimed that an audio clip of a purported telephonic conversation between Shekhawat and some Congress leaders discussing "toppling" the then Congress government in Rajasthan was given to him by Gehlot, the chief minister of the time. In March 2021, Delhi Police registered an FIR against Sharma on charges of criminal conspiracy, criminal breach of trust, and unlawfully intercepting telephonic conversations on the complaint of Shekhawat.
