‘Multiple antemortem injuries’: Chilling details emerge in Noida dowry death case BHOPAL: A retired district judge and her advocate son have been booked in Madhya Pradesh’s Bhopal in connection with the alleged dowry death of the latter’s wife, police said. The woman, 31-year-old Twisha Sharma from Noida, was found hanging at her marital home in Katara Hills on the night of May 12, according to news agency PTI. Police said Sharma had met the accused through a dating app in 2024 and the two married in December 2025. “The accused and his mother rushed Twisha to a hospital, where she was declared dead on arrival by doctors. Police was alerted about the case by hospital authorities at around 11pm,” Katara Hills police station in-charge Sunil Kumar Dubey told PTI. According to police, Sharma’s family alleged that she had been harassed for dowry and murdered by her in-laws. Her relatives claimed she had spoken to them over phone till around 10pm on Tuesday and had expressed a desire to leave Bhopal and return to Noida. “A case under Bharatiya Nyaya Samhita related to dowry death and dowry harassment has been registered against Giribala Singh and Samarth Singh. Efforts are being made to arrest them,” additional police commissioner (Zone-2) Gautam Solanki said. The case gained attention after Sharma’s family alleged physical assault, dowry harassment and attempts to destroy evidence.

FIR against Abhishek Banerjee over inflammatory statements, remarks against Amit Shah

FIR against Abhishek Banerjee over inflammatory statements, remarks against Amit Shah KOLKATA: An FIR has been registered against TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee at the Bidhannagar North Cyber Crime Police Station for allegedly making inflammatory statements ahead of the elections, making remarks regarding the playing of DJs and issuing statements against Union home minister Amit Shah. On Friday, Banerjee accused the Centre of allowing violence to erupt in West Bengal after the assembly election results and alleged that the counting process was manipulated during the recently concluded polls. In a post on X, the Trinamool Congress general secretary alleged that party candidates and counting agents were forcibly removed from several counting centres and claimed that central government employees controlled the counting process. “To every soldier of the Trinamool Congress family, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your courage, resilience, and relentless fight for justice. Despite an extremely difficult and compromised election, you never gave up hope,” Banerjee wrote. He further alleged that post-poll violence broke out across Bengal after the results were declared. “After the results, Bengal witnessed shocking post-poll violence despite repeated promises of protection by the Centre. Central forces remained mute spectators as our workers, offices, and homes were attacked and set ablaze,” he said. Banerjee also expressed condolences to families of those killed in the violence. “My deepest condolences to the families of those we lost in this struggle. Bengal has suffered immensely over the past few days, and such scenes are against the very spirit of our land,” he added.
