The Odisha Police on Saturday spotted in the CCTV footage of a filling station a woman, of an age nearly that of the student who set herself on fire on the campus of the Balasore college, buying petrol in a bottle around the same time.

The complainant purchased an iPhone 11 for Rs 65,264 from a Croma store in Mumbai on June 4, 2021.

In Delhi’s Sultanpuri, Kusum, a 52-year-old drug kingpin, operated a sophisticated heroin racket from a covert hub disguised as four houses. She used rope-lowered baskets and window slits for drug deliveries, while juvenile lookouts and CCTV cameras provided security. Police finally breached the fortified structure, arresting her son Amit, who managed the daily operations, after months of surveillance.
