Parents forced out of home, High Court orders son to return gifted flat

Parents forced out of home, High Court orders son to return gifted flat Parents forced out of home, High Court orders son to return gifted flat The parents transferred a Lower Parel apartment to their son on the promise that he would care for them. After he failed to do so, the court ordered the property to be returned. The Bombay High Court has upheld the cancellation of a property gift made by elderly parents to their son, saying that when parents transfer property on the understanding that they will be cared for, the transfer can be cancelled if that promise is not honoured. A bench of Acting Chief Justice Ravindra V Ghuge and Justice Gautam A Ankhad dismissed a petition filed by Mumbai businessman Ashwin Ramesh Soni, who had challenged an order directing him to return a Lower Parel flat to his parents. The dispute was brought by Ashwin's parents, Ramesh Bachaulal Soni, 68, and Beena Ramesh Soni, 60. They had transferred ownership of the flat to their son in May 2023 after he assured them that he would look after them and support them in their later years. According to court records, the family began facing serious disagreements around 2020. In an attempt to restore peace within the family, the parents transferred two properties to their son.

Justice K Sujana noted that the accused has been in custody for last 55 days and that the investigation is almost complete. "It is the specific stand of learned Public Prosecutor that the averments of counter would clearly show that investigation in the case is almost completed, except for filing of chargesheet," the Bench said. The Court added that the complainant's apprehension of accused influencing witnesses or tampering with the witnesses can be adequately addressed by imposing stringent conditions. It ordered the accused not to directly or indirectly contact, approach, communicate with or attempt to influence the victim, the complainant or any of the prosecution witnesses, in any manner whatsoever. Further, it said that the accused shall not visit the locality, educational institution, residence, workplace or any place frequented by the victim or the complainant. The accused has also been barred from making any public statement concerning the facts of the case, the victim, the complainant or the witnesses on any social media platform or otherwise. "The petitioner shall not give interviews, press statements, podcasts, public comments, or media briefings, directly or indirectly, in relation to the present crime or the subject matter thereof, until conclusion of trial," the Court directed.

Doctor posted in 3 districts at once, fraud exposed after arrest in bribery case

Doctor posted in 3 districts at once, fraud exposed after arrest in bribery case Doctor posted in 3 districts at once, fraud exposed after arrest in bribery case A contractual doctor arrested in a Rs 5,000 bribery case in Shahdol was found posted in three districts. The disclosure has triggered a Khargone inquiry into appointments, attendance and salary records. A bribery case in Madhya Pradesh has snowballed into a major administrative controversy after a contractual doctor, caught accepting a Rs 5,000 bribe in Shahdol, was found to be simultaneously posted in three different districts. The revelation has raised serious questions over how the health department processed attendance and salary records without detecting the apparent irregularity. Following the disclosure, the Khargone Chief Medical and Health Officer (CMHO) has ordered an inquiry. BRIBERY CASE EXPOSES MULTIPLE POSTINGS On July 3, the Rewa Lokayukta team arrested contractual Medical Officer Dr Mahesh Chand Sharma while allegedly accepting a Rs 5,000 bribe at the Ufri Primary Health Centre in Shahdol district. The investigation that followed uncovered another startling detail. Officials found that Dr Sharma's name was recorded as a contractual Medical Officer not only in Shahdol but also in Khargone and Sheopur districts.

Moneylender arrested for cheating, extortion and criminal intimidation in Hyderabad A 55-year-old businessman was arrested by the Goshamahal Police in Hyderabad on charges of cheating, extortion, criminal intimidation and insulting the modesty of a woman, while another accused is absconding. The accused has been identified as Mukesh, a resident of Jinsi Chawrah near Mohandas Mutt in the city. He was produced before a court and remanded to judicial custody. The second accused, Vikas Singh, is yet to be apprehended. According to the police, the case was registered following a complaint lodged on Tuesday (July 7, 2026). The complainant stated that he had borrowed ₹4.5 lakh from Mukesh on interest and had been regularly paying the monthly interest. Despite this, the accused demanded additional money. The complainant further alleged that on June 30, Mukesh and Vikas Singh forcibly entered his residence, abused him and his family, threatened and attempted to assault him, and later pressured him to withdraw his police complaint, leading to fear and mental distress for him.
