Former Punjab Police IG Amar Singh Chahal is in critical condition after a self-inflicted gunshot, reportedly due to an Rs 8.1 crore online investment scam. A handwritten note detailed how he was defrauded by a group named ‘F-777 DBS Wealth Equity Research Group’. This incident follows a similar case involving another IPS officer in the region.

Massive protests erupted outside the Bangladesh High Commission in Delhi following the mob lynching of a Hindu youth, Dipu Chandra Das, in Bangladesh’s Mymensingh.

Investigators are analysing technical data such as IP addresses, device information and transaction trails to establish ownership and intent of the accounts.
