Two nuns and two novices belonging to a Kerala-based congregation were forcefully asked to deboard an express train in Uttar Pradesh’s Jhansi by members of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) after local Bajrang Dal activists allegedly complained that the two women were allegedly conducting religious conversion. They were detained for questioning by railway police on March 19, and only after establishing there was no conversion involved, they were allowed to proceed. Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday promised strict action in the incident.

Noting that Uttar Pradesh has a BJP-ruled government while addressing a poll rally in Kerala, Shah said, “I want to assure the people of Kerala that the culprits behind this incident will be brought to justice at the earliest”.

he issue was brought to the Home Minister’s notice by party’s Kanjirappally assembly candidate, K J Alphonse, who is his former ministerial colleague in the union cabinet. The Kerala Catholic Bishops Council (KCBC) had also expressed concern over the matter.

Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan strongly condemned the incident and urged the Centre to take action against those “who disrupt and impair the freedomof individual rights” guaranteedby the Constitution.

The Congress and BJP took up the matter with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, respectively. The police said there was no basis in the complaint and all four women later took the next train to their destination in Odisha.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
