Aryan, a resident of Sehwan village in the district, was shot dead on Garhshankar-Nangal road on Wednesday night. Senior superintendent of police (SSP) Sandeep Kumar Malik said accused Naveen Kumar of Kokowal village had concocted the story that when he and Aryan were coming from Ludhiana after buying stuff for the latter's new garments shop, unidentified motorcycle-borne assailants shot him dead.

When Aryan stopped the car, Naveen took out a .32-bore pistol and shot him in the head and chest, the SSP added.

Gauri appeared alongside Sussanne Khan and spoke candidly about religion in her family. Gauri revealed that her son Aryan has always strongly identified with Shah Rukh Khan's faith, saying, 'Aryan is so into Shah Rukh, that he would follow his religion... He always says, 'I am a Muslim.'' She added that this would often leave her mother surprised and unsure how to respond, but acknowledged that it's simply the reality they've embraced as a family.

Punjab: Police solve blind murder case within 24 hours; victim's cousin among held
Hoshiarpur , Police on Friday claimed to have solved a blind murder case in Hoshiarpur district within 24 hours by arresting the main accused and two others involved in supplying the weapon used in the crime. Aryan , a resident of Sehwan village in the district, was shot dead around 11 pm on June 18 near Shahpur Ghata village. He was attacked by unidentified assailants while returning from Ludhiana along with his maternal cousin, Naveen Kumar, of Kokowal Mazari village, in a car. The two had gone there to purchase garments for their shop at Jhuggian village. A blind murder case refers to a murder where there are no direct eyewitnesses. During the investigation, Naveen emerged as the prime suspect, Senior Superintendent of Police Sandeep Kumar Malik said in a press conference. Naveen had initially told the police that they had stopped briefly as he felt sick and had stepped out of the car to vomit. At that moment, three masked men on a motorcycle allegedly opened fire at Aryan, who was seated inside the vehicle, hitting him in the head and chest. The assailants fled immediately after the attack. An FIR was registered in this connection. A special investigation team led by Superintendent of Police Mukesh Kumar was formed to crack the case. During the probe, it was revealed that Naveen, who runs a ready-made garments shop in Jhuggian, had employed Aryan; however, the latter had reportedly planned to open a shop nearby. This created tension between the two as Naveen feared losing business and customers. Police said Naveen lured Aryan to a deserted stretch near Shahpur Ghata and shot him twice, in the head and chest, using an illegally procured .32 bore country-made pistol. The pistol was allegedly procured from Gurmukh and his brother Gurdeep, both residents of Mehindwani village. Police recovered the pistol, along with one live and one spent cartridge, and the Swift car used by Naveen. Subsequently, Gurmukh and Gurdeep were also arrested for supplying the weapon, and the car used to deliver the pistol to Naveen was also recovered, the SSP said. All three accused were being produced before a court to obtain police remand. Further interrogation is underway, SSP Malik added.

Rare oarfish aka ‘doomsday fish' caught in Tamil Nadu sparks rumours about an impending calamity; should you be worried?
A rare oarfish, ominously dubbed the 'doomsday fish' in Japanese folklore, was recently caught off the Tamil Nadu coast, sparking widespread concern and curiosity among social media users. The unusual deep-sea creature, which, according to a viral video shared on X, required seven men to lift, has reignited age-old debates about whether these mysterious marine giants can truly predict natural disasters. However, before delving into the folklore surrounding this enigmatic fish, it's crucial to address what modern science tells us. A 2019 study published in the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America analysed decades of data and found no statistically significant link between sightings of deep-sea fish, such as oarfish, and earthquakes in Japan, effectively debunking the scientific basis for their so-called 'doomsday' reputation. The study analysed data collected between November 1928 and March 2011, focusing on instances where deep-sea fish were spotted 10 to 30 days before earthquakes struck within a 50 to 100 kilometer radius of the sightings. Researchers found only one event that could have been plausibly correlated, out of 336 fish sightings and 221 earthquakes in Japan. 'As a result, one can hardly confirm the association between the two phenomena,' the authors write in the BSSA paper. The creature captured in Tamil Nadu is a giant oarfish (Regalecus glesne), the world's longest bony fish, which can reach lengths of up to 36 feet (11 meters). These remarkable creatures typically inhabit the mesopelagic zone, dwelling 660 to 3,300 feet beneath the ocean's surface, where sunlight barely penetrates. The silvery, ribbon-like fish with its distinctive red crest-like dorsal fin is rarely seen by humans due to its deep-water habitat. They are thin and slow due to their lack of muscles and generally swim vertically in the ocean. When oarfish do surface, it's typically because they are sick, disoriented, dying, or occasionally breeding—not because they're fleeing from impending seismic activity, according to Ocean Conservancy, a nonprofit environmental advocacy group based in the United States. The rarely seen oarfish, which usually are in deep-sea, which is also known as 'Doomsday' fish is caught in the net in TamilNadu — Aryan (@chinchat09) June 16, 2025 The 'doomsday fish' reputation stems from ancient Japanese folklore, where oarfish are called 'ryugu no tsukai,' meaning 'messenger from the sea god's palace.' This belief gained international attention following several notable coincidences, particularly the 2010 incident when multiple dead oarfish washed ashore in Japan months before the devastating 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami that led to the Fukushima nuclear disaster. More recently, these coincidences have continued to fuel superstitions. In August 2024, a 12-foot oarfish was discovered near San Diego just two days before an earthquake struck Los Angeles, adding to the mystique surrounding these deep-sea dwellers. The Tamil Nadu sighting is part of a concerning trend of increased oarfish appearances worldwide. In recent months, these rare creatures have been spotted in various locations, including Mexico, Tasmania, and California. This uptick in sightings has led to increased speculation about environmental factors, with some experts suggesting that climate change, ocean warming, or changes in deep-sea ecosystems might be driving these creatures to shallower waters.
