Shehla Rashid’s anticipatory bail plea in sedition case dismissed

A Delhi court today dismissed the anticipatory bail application of former Jawaharlal Nehru student leader Shehla Rashid in a sedition case. The Kashmiri activist was charged with sedition for her comments on the alleged incidents of human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir by the Armed forces. The court directed the police to send a 10-day pre-arrest notice if the need arises to arrest her.
Additional Sessions Judge Satish Kumar Arora while hearing her anticipatory bail application said, “Keeping in view the nature of allegations and also considering the submissions of Investigating Officer (IO) that the investigation is at a preliminary stage, anticipatory bail application is disposed of with directions to the IO that if need arises for the arrest of the applicant/accused, she be issued a ten days pre-arrest notice.”
In a series of tweets on August 18, Rashid had alleged that the armed forces “tortured” civilians and “ransacked” houses in the Valley after the Article 370 was revoked.
In another tweet, she had alleged that four men were “abducted” and “interrogated (tortured)” at an Army camp in Shopian. She had claimed a mic was kept close to these men so that “the entire area could hear them scream, and be terrorised”.
An FIR was filed against Rashid on the basis of a complaint by advocate Alakh Alok Srivastava who claimed “the allegations made by her are false, baseless and concocted. She is deliberately and intentionally spreading fake news with an intention to incite violence and create unrest in Jammu and Kashmir”.
Rashid’s counsel submitted that there is nothing in the said tweets that violates section 124A of Indian Penal Code and in fact, the basic ingredients of the offense are not made out. She has made no allegation against the government. Criticism of this sort does not amount to sedition,” Rashid’s anticipatory bail application read.
The police had registered an FIR under sections 124A (sedition), 153A (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language), 153 (wantonly giving provocation with intent to cause riot), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace) and 505 (statements amounting to public mischief) of IPC.

Bengal man, 60, arrested for raping pet dog for 2 years
A bizarre and revolting incident has come to the fore from West Bengal’s South 24 Parganas district, wherein a 60-year-old man was arrested for allegedly raping his pet dog repeatedly for nearly two years.

A bizarre and revolting incident has come to the fore from West Bengal’s South 24 Parganas district, wherein a 60-year-old man was arrested for allegedly raping his pet dog repeatedly for nearly two years.
According to reports, the accused, Ratikant Sardar, was arrested after a video of the sickening act, was shot by his neighbours and shared on social media. The video went viral online and the man’s disgusting act, was noticed by authorities leading to his arrest on Thursday evening.
As per a report by India Today, Sardar was caught on film by some neighbors during the sickening act. They said the accused, who was naked and drunk, was having sexual intercourse with his dog as the beast howled.
Quoting locals who requested anonymity, the report said that Sardar had been raping his pet dog at his home in Chouhati Payarabagan area of Sonarpur police station of South 24 Parganas for nearly two years.
The neighbours said they repeatedly asked him not to indulge in such an unnatural act and release the dog but he refused and continued to act upon his disgraceful fetish, adding that they had no other way but to film him during the act and share it online to expose his repulsive fetish.
Luckily, an animal welfare body came across the video of Sardar’s abominable act on social media and filed a written complaint against under Section 377 and 11 of the Animal Cruelty Act at the Sonarpur Police Station.
Kolkata Animal Welfare Foundation Founder Sandeepan Mukherjee said the video was shot nearly a year ago by some locals but they weren’t aware of any animal protection laws and failed to report Sardar’s repulsive act to the authorities, adding that the locals had repeatedly urged him to stop such behavior but he did not budge.
The accused, reportedly, also lured female stray dogs from the street and raped them with impunity for years.
Based on the complaint filed by the animal welfare group, an FIR under section 377 (voluntarily having carnal intercourse against the order of nature) was registered against the accused, who was later arrested after initial investigation and will be produced today before a court in Baruipur.
The report said that the dog was rescued and sent to veterinary hospital on Thursday evening where doctors confirmed sexual abuse. The victimized beast is currently housed at an animal treatment center in Sonarpur and is under observation.

Earlier, a Rapido biker hailing from North East was harassed by an auto driver in Indiranagar’s Bengaluru. The video of the incident widely circulated on social media wherein the auto driver stopped the Rapido biker when he was about to leave after dropping his woman passenger and took off the key of his bike and snatched the helmet and stopped him from leaving.
Another incident took place near Indira Nagar Metro Station in Bengaluru wherein an auto driver stopped the Rapido driver and smashed his mobile phone. In the viral video, the auto driver was also seen yelling about their business being affected because of Rapido motorists.
Indira Nagar police station took cognizance of the incident and promised strict action against the auto driver.

In January 2023, the Bombay High Court asked Rapido to suspend its bike-taxi services immediately in Maharashtra in connection with the illegal plying of bike taxis in the state.
The company which gained popularity in metro cities due to its cheaper rates failed to submit proof of its legal operations in court. Rapido agreed to shit its services and asked the Maharashtra government to grant it a license to operate two-wheeler bike taxis in the state. However, the request was dismissed.
