| Goa blast: NIA to file chargesheet by May 17 Posted: 09 May 2010 04:32 AM PDT The National Investigation Agency (NIA) would file the chargesheet in the Goa blast case by May 17, a senior officer said. “We will file the chargesheet in two different courts at Margao and Vasco,” the officer said. The agency has arrested four persons — Dhananjay Ashtekar, Dilip Mangaonar, Vinayak Patil and Vinay Talekar — for allegedly conspiring to execute serial bomb blasts in the state on October 16, on the eve of Diwali last year. Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMFC) Vasco had last week granted bail to Vinayak Patil and Vinay Talekar as NIA had failed to file a chargesheet despite having the duo in custody for 180 days. Two persons had died in a bomb explosion at Margao town while police had defused two IEDs at Sancoale, 30 kms away from Margao. Courtesy:PTI |
| HC flays Goa govt for giving land sans agreement Posted: 08 May 2010 07:41 PM PDT In a case involving a claim of over Rs 24 lakh towards license fees for the premises of Club Paradiso in Anjuna, the high court of Bombay at Goa has denounced the government for not entering into an agreement while entrusting the public premises to a private party in 2001. The court observations came in the wake of a petition filed by one Nandgopal Kudchadkar, who is also facing eviction from the club premises following an order of the estate officer in February 2010. Kudchadkar approached the high court as the district court in March 2010, directed him to furnish a bank guarantee of Rs 24 lakh in the matter while staying the execution of the eviction order of the estate officer. Before the high court, the petitioner contended that that he was not liable to pay more than Rs six lakh. According to Kudchadkar, the district court could not have directed him to give a bank guarantee for the sum of Rs 24 lakh without finding out what the dues payable by him were. While dismissing the petition, Justice N A Britto observed, “The petitioner was put in possession of the suit premises from November 7, 2001 and since then has been continuing in possession without any agreement and without paying the licence fees regularly. One fails to understand how public property was entrusted to the petitioner without entering into an agreement.” Upholding the order of the district court for asking the petitioner to give the bank guarantee to secure the amount, the high court further held that the petitioner, who did not have any agreement executed with the Goa Tourism Development Corporation Ltd nor was regular in making payments, cannot be shown any further indulgence. The high court has granted the petitioner, at his request, two week’s time to furnish the bank guarantee before the district court. Courtesy: TOI |
| Swedish model wanted by Goa cops Posted: 08 May 2010 09:59 AM PDT Even as Goa police officials continue to hunt for Swedish model Lucky Mangarda, who uploaded a video on YouTube that showed her boyfriend and Israeli drug dealer Yaniv Benaim boasting of his connection with the Goan police, the model was keeping a low profile in Mumbai since the scandal erupted. Mangarda who had briefly worked in Bollywood as an extra revealed that she shared breathing space with several Bollywood stars, including Kareena Kapoor, Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi and Arjun Rampal. She did not reveal her present location, said she was in Mumbai last week. She answered our question via email. “I was in Mumbai for 14 days between January and February and I shot at four different locations in the city. I shot for Stepmom in a Bollywood studio, that one on the hill,” she said, presumably referring to Film City. The model said she also shot for Devgn-starrer ‘Once Upon a Time in Mumbai’ at Tulip Star Hotel, Juhu, and at Nitin Desai’s studio. She also mentioned Vama Apparels at Peddar Road, where she reportedly shot for Mani Shankar’s film ‘Knock Out’. In one picture, where Mangarda is dressed in a steel blue ghaghra choli, she is apparently on the sets of ‘Stepmom’, Karan Johar’s remake of the Hollywood movie of the same name. “I was in a wedding scene. Kareena Kapoor was in the same scene and maybe Arjun Rampal too, but he had a false beard on, so I don’t know,” she said. Mangarda has fond memories from the sets of ‘Once Upon a Time’. “I especially liked Ajay Devgn; everything he did was so professional,” said Mangarda, who added that Benaim never left Goa to join her in Mumbai. The model now has plans to return to Mumbai in August and learn Hindi. “I have got a better agent and this week’s audition here went very well,” she said. Crime Branch officials in Goa had told local reporters that they had not gotten in touch with Mangarda yet. “We have been trying to trace her,” said Crime Branch deputy superintendent Chandrakant Salgaokar.
