Sonepat assistant commissioner of police (ACP), headquarters, Ajit Singh said that the body of Sheetal, also known as Simmy Chaudhry, was recovered from the canal, 60km from Panipat, with its throat slit. 'We received information about the body of a woman in a canal and reached the spot. Investigation is underway,' he said. The body was recovered a day after Sheetal's sister, Neha, lodged a missing complaint at a police station in Panipat. In her complaint, Neha said Sheetal had left home for a music album shoot at Ahar village in Panipat on June 14 but never returned. Neha alleged that Sheetal's friend, identified as Sunil, also from Panipat, had reached the shooting venue and beaten her up. 'Sunil had been mounting pressure on Sheetal to marry him, but she knew he was already married and a father of two children. She told me over video call that Sunil had assaulted her,' Neha said, adding thereafter her phone got disconnected and she was unreachable. Before modelling and acting in Haryanvi music videos, Sheetal worked at Sunil's hotel in Karnal till six months ago. 'Even after she left the job at the hotel, he continued to chase her,' Neha stated in the complaint. Citing foul play, Neha said: 'On Sunday, Sunil's car slipped into a canal in Delhi and he was rescued by passers-by. My sister was not in the car. We suspect Sunil killed her and is concocting a false story. He is undergoing treatment at a hospital in Panipat at present.' Meanwhile, Sheetal's body was sent for post-mortem to the local civil hospital. The incident comes less than a week after police found the decomposed body of a Ludhiana-based digital content creator Kanchan Kumari, 30, popularly known as 'Kamal Kaur Bhabhi', inside a car at the parking lot of Adesh Medical College and Hospital in Bhucho town in Punjab. Two Nihangs, Jaspreet Singh and Nimratjit Singh, were arrested, while the key accused, Amritpal Singh Mehron, is absconding. 'Mehron had previously cautioned her to stop posting 'vulgar' videos and had planned to teach her a lesson. He, along with the others, hatched a conspiracy and they strangled her to death at an isolated location on June 10,' said Bathinda SSP Amneet Kondal.

Whether she is playfully styling denim-on-denim or redefining red carpet elegance, Neha Sharma consistently puts her best fashion foot forward. This time around, she looked every bit the diva that she is in an orange-hued gown from the label Supria Munjal. Neha Sharma slipped into an bright orange-hued gown featuring a sweetheart neckline and an eye-catching cut-out detailing at the front. But the main highlight of the ensemble was the floor-length voluminous train and the oversized ruffled sleeves, that made it look no less than pure drama. The voluminous skirt created with a chiffon fabric was attached to the body-con upper bodice that provided her ample space for comfortable cascading. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Neha Sharma ???? (@nehasharmaofficial) To style her look for the day, Neha ditched any heavy accessories and left her gown to make all the noise. For makeup, she took the bold route and oozed glamour from all sides. She went with a dewy base, which was further elevated with a dollop of blush dabbed on her cheeks. A few drops of highlighter mixed with the colours from her nude palette added charm to her pretty face. Further, it was her bold, kohl-rimmed eyes that screamed for attention. The Raghu Romeo actress completed her eye makeup with bold strokes of eyeliner and a smokey golden effect around the edges. Complementing it, Neha opted for a nude brown hue for her lips using the YSL Loveshine Candy Glaze in the shade Nude Pleasure to ace her power dressing game.

India face narrow 2-3 defeat against Australia in FIH Hockey Pro League 2024/25 (Women)
London [UK], June 14 (ANI): The Indian Women's Hockey Team suffered a narrow 2-3 defeat to Australia in their FIH Hockey Pro League 2024/25 match at the Lee Valley Hockey & Tennis Centre on Saturday, according to a release from Hockey India. After going three goals down, India fought back through goals from Deepika (44') and Neha (52'), but the Australians held their nerve in a fierce final quarter to secure the win. Courtney Schonell (16'), Lexie Pickering (27') and Tatum Stewart (35') registered goals for Australia. The match also marked a personal milestone for midfielder Vaishnavi Vitthal Phalke, who completed her 50th appearance for India. There was little to separate the two sides in the opening quarter, with both teams showing intent and valuing possession. India adopted a patient approach but were quick to apply pressure on the Australian defence. Australia earned a penalty corner in the 10th minute, but India held firm to deny them. India's best chance came late in the quarter, when a swift attacking move forced Australian goalkeeper Zoe Newman into a sharp double save. As early as a minute into the second quarter, Courtney Schonell was at the end of a sharp pass from Grace Stewart. Schonell finished it with precision to give Australia the lead. Australia's high press meant India lost the ball in key pockets. In the 27th minute, a turnover from Navneet led to scrappy moments of play and a series of Australian shots on goal. Savita's reflexes held up against two consecutive shots, but on the second rebound, Lexi Pickering slotted it past the Indian Goalkeeper to double Australia's lead. India were unable to create chances on goal before proceedings broke for half-time. Momentum stayed with Australia as five minutes into the third quarter, Australia earned another penalty corner as their relentless pressure tested the Indian defence. The initial attempt was bravely defended by Sunelita Toppo. However, the sequence led to another penalty corner, which evolved to a penalty stroke. Tatum Stewart stepped up and drilled it past goalkeeper Bichu Devi, extending Australia's lead to 3-0. India found much-needed respite when they won a penalty corner with 68 seconds left in the quarter. Deepika was at the end of a crisp injection and flicked it in with precision to reduce the deficit to 1-3. India came out with all guns blazing in the fourth quarter, spurred by their goal. The Indian attack won three consecutive penalty corners in the 46th minute, but the scores were unchanged. India now played with a strong sense of urgency and put Australia under immense pressure. Australia buckled in the 52nd minute when they conceded another penalty scorer. Deepika's low driven shot was well defended, but Neha pounced on the ball in the ensuing chaos and buried it with finesse at close range to make it 2-3. India looked to threaten with a series of quick moves, but the equaliser eluded them. In the dying embers of the match, silky stick work from Navneet helped her glide into the circle before she was brought down for another penalty corner. However, Australia retained the lead to secure the victory. Prior to the start of the match, both teams observed a minute's silence in memory of those who lost their lives in the recent aircraft tragedy in Ahmedabad. (ANI)
