Srinagar, May 24: Major Litul Gogoi, who was at the centre of the controversy over tying a civilian to the bonnet of a moving Army jeep last year, this time arrested by the Jammu and Kashmir police for creating ruckus in a hotel.

According to police the army officer turned violent while arguing with a Srinagar hotel staff who refused to allow a minor girl stay in a room booked by the army officer. The girl and a Budgam resident, who had brought the girl to the hotel, were also detained.

The police received a call from Hotel Grand Mamta, Dalgate, around 11 a.m. yesterday that an altercation had taken place there. “It surfaced that one girl (name withheld) and Sameer Ahmed of Budgam had come to meet an Army officer,” said the police.

Major Gogoi was taken to the Srinagar’s District Police Lines, where top police officials operate, “for questioning.” According to the hotel ledger, Major Gogoi had booked a room for a night for two persons (including him) in the hotel and checked in on Wednesday morning.

“One Kashmiri girl wanted to meet the officer. The hotel staffer grew suspicious about the girl who was apparently a minor. He asked for her identity document. The girl after some hesitation produced an Aadhar card. After learning about who she was, the receptionist put his foot down and told the army officer that the hotel’s policy didn’t allow him to let a local girl stay in the hotel,” the hotel staffers said.

“When we refused the entry, Major Gogoi went outside and had altercation with our employee. We called up police,” they added.

Major Gogoi was in the eye of the storm when he paraded a civilian Farooq Ahmed Dar of Chill Brass in Beerwah on the bonnet of his vehicle on April 9 2017 during the by-elections. However, Army chief General Bipin Rawat issued a commendation card to the Major claiming that he resorted to such an act to escape stone-throwers.

The Enforcement Directorate on Friday produced Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal before the Rouse Avenue court and sought a 10-day custody in the excise policy-linked money laundering case. "Kejriwal was the kingpin of the scam," the ED reportedly told the court after the AAP chief was produced before Special Judge Kaveri Baweja around 2 pm amid tight security. 

ASG S V Raju was appearing for the agency, while Senior Advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi is representing Kejriwal. 

Raju in his argument said Kejriwal was "directly involved in formulation of the (liquor) policy... he was involved in handling of proceeds of crime as well in the Goa election campaign."

"The expert committee was constituted but it was a sham committee. The policy was made in such a manner that it would enable the taking of bribes and recoupment of people who gave the bribes," the ED counsel said. 

Kejriwal was produced in the trial court shortly after he withdrew from the Supreme Court his plea against arrest by the Enforcement Directorate in the excise policy-linked money laundering case. Kejriwal's counsel said he would contest the remand proceedings before the trial court and then come back to the apex court with another petition.

Bengaluru, Mar 15: Former Karnataka chief minister and senior BJP leader B S Yediyurappa was booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act on Thursday for allegedly sexually assaulting a minor at his residence in Bengaluru last month.

Yediyurappa, 81, was booked after a woman lodged a complaint saying that she visited his residence on February 2 seeking justice in a rape case against her daughter and sought that a special investigation team (SIT) be formed to look into the case.

According to the first information report (FIR), Yediyurappa allegedly took the minor to a room, closed the door and sexually assaulted her. The woman further alleged in the FIR that when she confronted Yediyurappa, he said that he was checking if the girl was raped or not. Yediyurappa later allegedly apologised and asked the woman not to reveal the matter to anyone.

The Sadashivanagar police in Bengaluru have registered a case under Section 8 (commit sexual assault) of the Pocso Act and Section 354 (a) (sexual harassment) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

Reacting to the allegations, the former CM said that around one-and-a-half months ago, they (the victim and her mother) had come to his house seeking help and he had taken them inside. 

“After listening to her, I called the city police commissioner B Dayananda over phone seeking to address her problem. Later, they spoke against me and I then suspected that there is some health problem with her. I sent them to city police commissioner’s office. I even gave her some money as they were in distress. I came to know that an FIR has been registered and will look into it. But this is what I get for helping someone,” he added.
