<p>West Bengal police have cracked a chilling case of filicide in Burdwan&#8217;s Memari area, where a man allegedly murdered his visually impaired and physically challenged young son before attempting to conceal the crime by burying him near Kaladighi Lake. The arrest of Sonalal Mandi has sent shockwaves through Mandalgram village.</p>



<p>Details emerging from the investigation paint a grim picture of familial despair turning deadly. Surya, the victim, was born blind with dysfunctional limbs, placing immense strain on the household. Deserted by his wife soon after the child&#8217;s birth, Mandi shuttled his son between relatives until the grandmother passed away, leaving him solely responsible.</p>



<p>Witness accounts reveal Mandi&#8217;s growing frustration; he reportedly sought to admit Surya to an orphanage but was rebuffed. Turning sinister, on Wednesday, he took the boy to the secluded lake shore in Barapalashan, strangled him, and interred the body under loose earth.</p>



<p>Fate intervened Thursday morning as swelled lake waters eroded the makeshift grave, exposing the remains. Police swiftly arrived, exhumed the body for autopsy at Burdwan Medical College, and zeroed in on Mandi. His interrogation yielded a full confession, prompting immediate arrest and case filing.</p>



<p>As investigations continue, this case highlights critical gaps in social welfare for vulnerable families. Community leaders are calling for urgent interventions to prevent such monstrosities, while Mandi awaits court proceedings amid widespread condemnation.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>West Bengal&#8217;s Howrah district witnessed a chilling daylight execution on Wednesday, where two armed men shot a youth dead in Golabari police limits. The victim, Shafiq Khan, fell prey to a meticulously planned ambush captured vividly on CCTV.</p>



<p>According to police, the footage shows Shafiq engaged in conversation with one suspect while another positioned himself strategically at his back around 4 AM Tuesday. In a flash, the rear assailant brandished a firearm and pumped a bullet into Shafiq&#8217;s skull. The duo then riddled his body with more shots as he hit the ground, confirming the kill before vanishing into the dawn.</p>



<p>A resident of Pilkhana under the same station, Shafiq worked as a property developer and was out for a roadside meal when attacked. Eyewitness accounts and video evidence point fingers at Mohammad Harul Khan and Rohit as the perpetrators, linked to a prior minor dispute.</p>



<p>&#8216;We have mobilized teams and are scrutinizing every frame of CCTV networks,&#8217; stated a Howrah police senior. The body was taken to hospital, where death was confirmed. An FIR has been lodged, and raids are ongoing.</p>



<p>Family members expressed outrage, with a relative revealing, &#8216;There was just a brief argument with Harul long ago—no real grudge. Yet he brought Rohit to murder him.&#8217;</p>



<p>The incident has sparked outrage, prompting calls for enhanced patrolling and stricter arms control. As investigators piece together timelines and motives, the community holds its breath for arrests that could restore some semblance of security.</p>

<p>West Bengal police struck gold in Bolpur, Birbhum, raiding a Trinamool Congress leader&#8217;s hotel and seizing multiple crude bombs. The Sunday morning operation has ignited fresh debates on political patronage of crime in the state.</p>



<p>The target was Babu Das&#8217;s establishment, located conveniently near the railway station. Das, married to Bolpur municipal councillor and TMC leader Sangita Das, is the prime suspect but has fled the scene. Seven others were nabbed on site, yielding the explosive haul during intense interrogations.</p>



<p>SDPO Ricky Agarwal spearheaded the joint team from two police stations, acting on solid tips of illicit bomb assembly. &#8216;We sealed the perimeter and uncovered the bombs stored within. A full inquiry is underway to trace the supply chain and accomplices,&#8217; the officer revealed.</p>



<p>Whispers of prior misdemeanors at the hotel—ranging from flesh trade allegations to other vices—add layers to the scandal. No word yet from TMC headquarters, leaving supporters scrambling for answers.</p>



<p>Opposition BJP was quick to pounce. Spokesperson Jagannath Chattopadhyay alleged, &#8216;This hotel served as their party hub, where extortion was routine.&#8217; The revelation comes amid Birbhum&#8217;s volatile mix of politics and unrest.</p>



<p>With elections looming, this raid could signal a crackdown on ruling party affiliates. Law enforcement vows comprehensive investigations, promising no stone unturned in rooting out such threats to public safety.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>A chilling case of honor killing has stunned Jalpaiguri in West Bengal, where a husband brutally stabbed his wife to death at her lover&#8217;s residence before walking into the local police station to surrender. The incident, reported from Dhupguri on Saturday, highlights the dark underbelly of infidelity and rage-fueled violence.</p>



<p>The victim, identified as 32-year-old Soma Roy Burman, was living apart from her husband Shrikant Roy, who toils as a migrant worker in distant Kerala. During his prolonged absence, Soma reportedly grew intimate with a local young man from the neighborhood. Shrikant&#8217;s return home unraveled the secret, sparking fierce confrontations.</p>



<p>In a dramatic escalation, roughly seven days before the fatal attack, Shrikant banished his wife to her paramour&#8217;s home amid a blazing row. She remained there until Saturday morning, when her husband arrived armed with a sharp blade. Witnesses describe a frantic scene as he assaulted her repeatedly, leading to her instant death.</p>



<p>Rather than escaping, Shrikant headed directly to the police station, owning up to his actions. Dhupguri police swiftly responded, securing the crime site and transporting the body for autopsy. The suspect is in custody, facing intense questioning as detectives reconstruct the timeline.</p>



<p>A top district police officer stated that legal proceedings under the new criminal code have commenced, with a thorough inquiry promised. The murder has cast a shadow over the area, prompting community leaders to call for awareness programs on marital discord and conflict resolution.</p>



<p>As the probe deepens, questions linger about preventive measures in such volatile situations. This heartbreaking story serves as a stark reminder of how personal betrayals can erupt into irreversible tragedies, leaving families shattered and communities on edge.</p>

<p>Tension grips a quiet neighborhood in Kolkata after a man&#8217;s body was found suspended by a rope in his apartment. Sunny Singh, 34, lived with his wife Punita and daughter Tanisha in a rented flat in Sarshuna. Now, his death is under intense scrutiny with allegations of murder leveled against his spouse and her kin.</p>



<p>According to police, the discovery unfolded dramatically Tuesday night. Punita, confined to a separate room with the door bolted from outside, sought help from neighbors to escape through the balcony. Upon entering the main area, she confronted the grim sight of Sunny hanging.</p>



<p>Sunny battled alcoholism, a vice that poisoned his marriage with frequent brawls. The previous evening saw yet another explosive fight, culminating in him throwing Punita and Tanisha out. Cops mediated their return, but tragedy struck hours later.</p>



<p>Postmortem results at Vidyasagar hospital pinpointed strangulation as the cause, with ligature marks as the sole injury. Sunny&#8217;s sister Sangita Shaw wasted no time filing charges against Punita and brother-in-law Rakesh Paswan, igniting a full-scale investigation.</p>



<p>Authorities have begun interrogating those implicated, scouring for evidence that could distinguish suicide from slaying. Neighbors whisper about the couple&#8217;s volatile past, wondering if bottled rage finally boiled over. This case underscores the dark undercurrents in domestic lives, where everyday conflicts can spiral into catastrophe. Kolkata police vow a thorough probe to uncover the truth.</p>

<p>West Bengal&#8217;s Purulia district is reeling from a heinous crime where a 17-year-old girl was kidnapped and gangraped by a group of youths. Authorities arrested seven accused on Sunday, invoking the stringent POCSO Act, 2012, as confirmed by top police brass on Monday.</p>



<p>The nightmare began Friday evening in Purulia town. The minor stepped out to meet a friend but vanished into thin air. Her worried family filed an abduction report at the local police station, prompting a high-stakes search operation.</p>



<p>Late that night, officers located and rescued the traumatized girl. In her police statement, she described being forcibly taken by seven-eight boys to an isolated farmland by railway tracks, where they repeatedly assaulted her sexually.</p>



<p>Post-assault, she fled back home, leading to her medical evaluation and the launch of targeted operations. Raids yielded the arrest of all involved parties by Sunday.</p>



<p>Six suspects appeared in court, securing seven-day judicial remand. The seventh, unwell, remains under medical care ahead of his court date. &#8216;Justice will be swift and severe,&#8217; assured a district police spokesperson.</p>



<p>As the victim prepares to give her protected testimony today, activists call for community vigilance and better street lighting to prevent such atrocities. This incident has ignited public outrage, pressuring authorities for robust child protection reforms in the state.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Authorities have apprehended three individuals in connection with the brutal gang-rape of a second-year MBBS student from Odisha in Durgapur, West Bengal. The distressing incident occurred near a private medical college where the victim was studying. Legal proceedings have commenced with charges filed against the accused for gang-rape and related offenses involving common intent.</p>



<p>The 23-year-old medical student, hailing from Jaleswar, Odisha, was reportedly attacked late Friday evening. According to initial reports, she was out for dinner with a friend near the college premises when a group of assailants intercepted them. The victim was allegedly dragged into a secluded wooded area behind the college and subjected to the horrific assault before the perpetrators fled the scene. The arrested individuals&#8217; identities have not yet been publicly disclosed.</p>



<p>This shocking crime has escalated national concern, prompting the National Commission for Women (NCW) to intervene. The NCW has formally requested a swift and thorough investigation, the immediate apprehension of all involved, and assured comprehensive support for the survivor&#8217;s medical and psychological well-being. A senior NCW official is expected to visit Durgapur to assess the situation and review police progress, with an update on actions taken demanded within five days.</p>



<p>West Bengal Police have assured the public that the victim is in recovery and receiving adequate support from her family and authorities. They have also cautioned against the dissemination of unverified information. The police department has reiterated its firm commitment to a zero-tolerance stance against crimes against women and pledged to ensure justice for the survivor by bringing all culprits to account.</p>
