10 days later, cops clueless but family suspects murder

Vijay Upadhyay
Agra. Ten days after the death of a senior administrative officer in Gorakhpur, the State police is unable to ascertain the cause of his death while his family, based in Agra, claims that he was murdered.
Yashveer Singh, additional commissioner of Gorakhpur died mysteriously on 19th January, a day after he left from his residence at Agra on the 18th of this month. While the police had pointed out the possibility of a heart attack as the cause of death initially, the investigation later went haywire, with the family members indicating the possibility of his being poisoned.
But after the post-mortem report went inconclusive, the Gorakhpur police had preserved stomach remains of the deceased official for forensic analysis though almost 10 days later, the cause of his death still remains unknown. The family members have demanded a detailed inquiry into the circumstances that led to Mr Singh's death.
They said that on the day of his death, Mr Singh was visited by four people, including a woman and immediately afterwards, he was found dead in his apartment which indicated that these four people had some role in Mr Singh's murder but the police had failed to inquire into the identity of these people.
Talking to The Pioneer, SN Singh, in-charge, Cantt Police station, Gorakhpur who is also the officer in-charge of the inquiry into Mr Singh's death, said that the deceased official had been suffering from blood pressure related problems and it could have caused his death. He said that the police had found no proofs of four people visiting Mr Singh just before his death and the woman had been identified as an old acquaintance of the deceased official.

Woman torched to death by inlaws on International Women's Day in India

AGRA.               It could serve as a well-placed slap in the face of the the groups of so-called women's rights activists who all too recently celebrated International Women’s Day, fervently praising the contribution made by women to the society and vowing to prevent violence against the feminine gender comfortably ensconced in luxurious clubs and hotels.    While the world was busy celebrating women’s day, a young girl was murdered in cold-blood, torched to death by her in-laws in Kayamganj town of Farrukhabad district of Uttar Pradesh, alongwith a 6-month fetus inside her, just three years after marriage.    Two weeks have passed since the grisly murder but the local police appears to be in no hurry to catch the absconding in-laws who doused the girl in kerosene and left her to burn and die on the street, making good their escape while the locals awaited for the police to arrive. Meanwhile, the victim’s mother Archana Sharma has suffered from a strok

My views on Libya, India and the permanent SC seat

On Wednesday, the British government 'de-recognized' the Gaddafi government and decided that it was in the interest of democracy to recognize the Libyan rebels as the only legal representative of the Libyan people. Immediately after that, the British Police entered the Libyan embassy in London and forced the remaining Libyan diplomats out of UK. France has already been parachuting modern weaponry, arms and ammunition to the Libyan rebel strongholds and both France and the United States have recognized the rebels as the legal Libyan representative power. While I am not a fan of Gaddafi or his regime in any way or form but I am equally disappointed in NATO's tactics and the double standards being played by the western powers in the Arab world. Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein had been two sore patches in the otherwise near-sweeping 'western conquest' of the Arab world and its oil. Only now, when a group of disenchanted Libyans, trained and provided for by wes

Vishal Sharma / Agra December 29, 2008, 0:00 IST Govardhan Udyog plans to use cowdung to produce particle board. Faced with the task of developing environment-friendly technology for industry due to guidelines issued by the Supreme Court, entrepreneurs in Agra are realising the cost-effective potential of such technologies and innovations. Govardhan Udyog is one such unit which plans to use a non-conventional raw material, cowdung, to produce particle board and pharmaceutical products. The unit was inaugurated this week on the Agra-Delhi national highway near the Mathura refinery, about 55 km from Agra. Company sources said the basic raw material used in the manufacture of particle board will be cow dung. This will perhaps make it the first particle board manufacturing facility using cowdung as the raw material. Govardhan Udyog Managing Director SK Mittal said particle boards were emerging as a viable alternative in designing office furniture and automation products in the country as c
