Court issues arrest warrant against two accused of job fraud
Bhopal/Jabalpur: A Jabalpur court of Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMFC) has issued an arrest warrant against a Central Ordnance Depot employee and another person for cheating the plaintiff in the name of providing a govt job to his son. The complaint filed by Rambharose Chouksey, a retired employee from an Army workshop, said that he knew the accused, PL Chaudhary. Chaudhary assured him of getting a job for his son Deepak in railways for Rs 4 lakh. Later, he offered to get him a job in BHEL for Rs 10 lakh on the pretext that recruitment in the railways was stayed by the court. He also introduced him to Ritesh Gupta, who claimed to be the nephew of former home minister Umashankar Gupta. Trusting the two, Chouksey gave them Rs 9 lakh. Chaudhary gave him a cheque of Rs 3.5 lakh as a guarantee and also handed over a 'fake' appointment letter and other documents for his son. When it was revealed to him that he was cheated, Chouksey sought to lodge an FIR with the police, but the police said that there were complaints of fraud against them already and didn't proceed with any action, thereby making him move to the court with his complaint. Hearing the case, the court of JMFC Jagmohan Singh ordered the police to register a case of fraud against the two accused and also issued an arrest warrant against them for their presence in court on the next hearing on Aug 20.

Police file 3000-page chargesheet in Vadodara car crash case
The Vadodara city police on Tuesday filed a 3000-page chargesheet in the March 13 Karelibaug car crash involving an MS University law student Rakshit Chaurasiya that killed one woman and left seven others injured, detailing that the car was being driven at the speed of 140 kmph and the driver did not attempt to bring the vehicle to a halt. Apart from Chaurasiya, his friend Pranshu Chauhan was also present in the car at the time of the accident. Relying on forensic reports, eye witness accounts as well as data shared by German car maker Volkswagen, the police filed the chargesheet in the 90-day window of the case on Tuesday. The chargesheet, comprising statements — most of which were recorded before a magistrate — of over 100 eye witnesses also emphasises on the report received by the Vadodara city police from Volkswagen from the analysis of the Incident Data Recorder (IDR) of the high-end car. The police have emphasised that Chaurasiya was driving the car between 100-140 kmph throughout the stretch and following the crash, the car continued to speed ahead at 140 kmph leading to more damage until the automatic brakes of the car brought it to a halt. Vadodara city Commissioner of Police Narasimha Komar, told The Indian Express, 'We have detailed the report of the FSL, which has confirmed that Chaurasiya and his co-passenger Pranshu Chauhan were under the influence of drugs. They were aware that driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is a crime, yet they took out the car'. 'Although they have been booked in a separate case under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, they knowingly endangered the lives of people…' Komar said. Komar added that the police have also detailed the findings of Volkswagen, the maker of the car involved in the crash — a Volkswagen Virtus — as the Incident Data Recorder or the black box of the vehicle had confirmed the car speed. Komar said, 'The vehicle was a high-end one and the incident data recorder confirmed that the speed was grossly in excess of 100, even at 140 kmph at some spots. We also have eye witness accounts to fortify the case against them…' The Vadodara Sessions court on Tuesday rejected the Vadodara city police revision petition, filed against the order of a Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMFC) court, which had, on April 6 directed 'immediate release from illegal detention' of Praanshu Chauhan, after he moved the court contending 'illegal detention' at Karelibaug police station in the NDPS case filed against him. Additional Sessions Judge MA Tailor, on Tuesday, upheld the order of the JMFC court and dismissed the revision petition of the police, in which District Government Pleader, Vadodara, Anil Desai made submissions before the district sessions court, contending that the JMFC court had 'no jurisdiction' to issue the orders in the case. Chauhan, who was arrested and granted bail in the NDPS case lodged against him at the Warasiya police station, had moved the court stating that Karelibaug police station 'illegally detained' him within minutes of being granted bail in the NDPS case on April 5, 2025, purportedly in connection with' Chaurasiya's accident case but he had been 'illegally detained in custody at Karelibaug Police Station since April 3 and was further illegally detained in police custody for the whole night on April 3, without informing him for the reasons of such detention.' Chauhan has been made a co-accused in the accident. CP Komar said that the city police will explore legal options after examining the order. Komar said, 'We will go through the order in detail and seek legal opinion to see if we can appeal in a higher court… or if we should accept the order as it is.'

Plea against Chauhan's release rejected
Vadodara: The revision application filed by police in connection with the release of accident case co-accused Pranshu Chauhan by the judicial magistrate first class (JMFC) was rejected by the sessions court on Tuesday. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "The sessions court rejected the revision application filed by police," said Hitesh Gupta, who represents Chauhan. Chauhan was in the passenger's seat when Rakshit Chaurasia drove the car into several vehicles, killing one person and injuring eight, on March 13. Police filed the revision application in April and argued that Section 105 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita invoked against Chauhan carries a punishment of 10 years or life imprisonment. Police had arrested Chauhan on April 5, after his name was added to the original FIR as a co-accused along with that of Chaurasia, who was driving the car. Police booked Chaurasia and Chauhan for culpable homicide. Chauhan's advocate, Hitesh Gupta, argued that the same offence cannot be registered against Chauhan, who was merely sitting next to Chaurasia in the car. Gupta argued that Chauhan was arrested by Karelibaug police, but they didn't inform his family in writing about the reasons for his arrest. Gupta also said that the section of the NDPS Act applied against Chauhan in the FIR of the drugs case was wrong. The JMFC ordered the release of Chauhan on April 6, terming his arrest illegal after Gupta argued how police flouted the rules during his arrest.
