Mumbai: One arrested in connection with Versova cylinder blast

According to Delhi Police, around 12:30 am, staff of Prince Hotel located at SPM T-point on Church Mission Road informed the beat staff that Room No. 205 was locked and the guest inside was not responding despite repeated knocking.

A fire broke out at the old Transport Authority building in Sheikh Sarai Phase 2 area of Delhi on Wednesday night, gutting important documents stored in the record room, officials said.

In 2019, Shah was arrested in a case registered by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) against him and other separatist leaders in 2017. The separatist leader has not been released from judicial custody ever since.

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde stated that the threats were bogus, calling the Vidhan Bhavan safe and added that operations to tackle the issue are underway smoothly.

Earlier on Wednesday, the alert troops of White Knight Corps of the Indian army conducted a joint search Operation Sherikalan in Gen Area Poonch, and recovered approx 4 kg of explosives. They have been destroyed in situ.

Counsel for the accused, Arvind Singh, expressed opposition to the police remand. He stated that a weapon had already been recovered in the matter and that the probe was nearing completion, as eyewitnesses had already been recorded.

The accused, 26-year-old Farman, a resident of New Usmanpur, is a known history-sheeter with a criminal record spanning over 40 cases.

Delhi police have alleged that Manish Sharma was the key conspirator behind the planning of the 'shirtless' protest at the AI Impact Summit at Bharat Mandapam on February 20. A Non-Bailable Warrant has also been issued against him.

Speaking with ANI, he noted that the international community currently lacks respected voices capable of exerting the moral and critical pressure necessary to move toward peace, stressing that countries like India, with moral authority, should push for a ceasefire and dialogue.

Justice L. Victoria Gowri observed that while the right to peaceful protest is a constitutionally protected right, such demonstrations should not cause undue hardship to the public, particularly by obstructing national highways.
