A recent investigation by media organisations has shed light on the tragic death of Ukrainian journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna, who was captured by Russian forces in 2023 while reporting on the illegal detention and torture of Ukrainians in the occupied region of Zaporizhzhia. According to a forensic examination of her body, Roshchyna, 27, suffered extensive torture and ill-treatment, including "abrasions and hemorrhages on various parts of the body, a broken rib, neck injuries, and possible electric shock marks on her feet," as described by Yuriy Belousov, head of the War Crimes Unit at the Ukrainian Prosecutor General's office. Belousov also noted that Roshchyna's body showed signs of an autopsy having been performed before it was returned to Ukraine, and that some of her organs were missing. The missing organs could signal that Russia attempted to hide the cause of death, possibly to conceal that it had committed a war crime, Belousov said. Roshchyna's colle...

Lucknow Super Giants captain Rishabh Pant defended his decision to bowl first in hot and humid conditions in an afternoon start at the Wankhede Stadium as his team slumped to a 54-run defeat in Match 45 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 on Sunday. The Mumbai batters capitalised on the pitch that looked good for batting and posted 215/7, riding on half-centuries by Ryan Rickelton (58) and Suryakumar Yadav (54). With the LSG batters scorched and cooked up by the hot and humid conditions, Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult produced fiery spells to claim 4-22 and 3-20 to bowl out the visitors for 161 in 20 overs and secured MI's fifth straight win. This was Mumbai's 150th win in IPL history, the first to reach this milestone, and also the first for the five-time champions over LSG in the league phase. But Pant said his decision to bowl first did not impact the match as they were outplayed by a side that played better. "It (bowling first) was the right decision for us, we back...

A heinous terror attack took place in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam on April 22. At least 26 people were killed in the tragic incident. Television actors Shoaib Ibrahim and Dipika Kakar had a narrow escape, as they left Kashmir just a day before the terror attack. In his Instagram Stories, Shoaib assured fans that they were safe. However, the actor faced brutal trolling for ending his note by writing, "New vlog coming soon." Despite the growing backlash, Shoaib Ibrahim again posted a note on his Instagram Stories on Saturday, teasing fans about his new vlog. Against a black backdrop, he wrote, "New vlog jaldi." Shoaib didn't react to the trolling and simply added a smiling emoji to his note.

Former Indian cricket team batter Manoj Tiwary said that he believes Punjab Kings will not win the IPL 2025 title and even levelled a major allegation against head coach Ricky Ponting . During the IPL 2025 match against Kolkata Knight Riders, PBKS decided to send Glenn Maxwell at No. 4 and Marco Jansen at No. 5 after a brilliant start courtesy Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh . That meant that Nehal Wadhera and Shashank Singh were able to get any balls due to the change in batting order. Tiwary said that Ponting chose the foreign batters or Indian talents and the plan did not work out for them. He added that if he continues to show lack of confidence in Indian players, PBKS will not win the title this year. "My gut feeling says that punjab team will not be able to win the #IPL trophy this season because what I saw today when they were batting was, the coach didn't send Indian inform batters Nehal wadera and Shasank singh, instead he trusted his foreign players to deli...

The people who have been arrested in Assam, Meghalaya and Tripura include an MLA, a journalist, students, a lawyer and retired teachers. Most of the arrests were from social media posts.

FBI chief Kash Patel finds himself in a spot after hastily posting about a judge's arrest on his social media handle on X. The case in question was about an undocumented migrant who was allegedly evading federal agents who were pursuing him. The Trump administration has accused the sitting Judge of a federal court of allegedly "helping" the migrant. The judge's arrest comes amid growing struggle between the government and the judiciary in America. President Trump's policy on immigrants, both legal and illegal - and the manner of their detention and deportation has been nothing short of being termed hardline, rights activists say. 'DELETED WITHIN MINUTES' The tussle between the White House and courts saw a sharp escalation with the arrest of Hannah Dugan, a Milwaukee County circuit judge. She "intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject," claimed Mr Patel in a post on X, adding that agents were "intending to detain the ...

The recent interview with US President Donald Trump by TIME magazine has caused debate regarding the Crimean peninsula, which was annexed by Russia in 2014. Trump stated that "Crimea will stay with Russia” as part of potential peace negotiations with Ukraine, adding that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky understands this reality.  The Crimean peninsula has been a point of contention between Ukraine and Russia for years, with Russia annexing the region in 2014. Trump's comments suggest that he believes Crimea's fate is already sealed, with Russia maintaining control over the region. He pointed out that the people of Crimea largely speak Russian, implying that this demographic factor contributes to the region's ties with Russia. However, he also took a swipe at his predecessor, Barack Obama, saying, "But this was given by Obama. This wasn't given by Trump." Zelensky has consistently maintained that recognising occupied territory as Russian is a red l...

The Attari Border between India and Pakistan, located in Punjab, will be closed from tonight as part of retaliatory measures against Pakistan following the shocking terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam - the worst since the 2019 Pulwama strike -- in which 26 people died.  Besides closure of Attari border, suspension of Indus water treaty and refusal to issue SAARC visas were among the range of measures India will take against Pakistan, the Cabinet Committee on Security decided this evening. The committee chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, had met to formulate India's response to the attack. "The Integrated Check Post Attari will be closed with immediate effect. Those who have crossed over with valid endorsements may return through that route before 01 May 2025," the foreign ministry announced after the meeting.  The suspension of Indus Water Treaty - a water sharing agreement that sends the waters of Indus to the parched heartland of Pakistan - is th...

US President Donald Trump on Sunday issued an eight-point 'non-tariff cheating' list, warning countries of non-tariff-related offences that could spoil relations with the US. The warning came days after Trump announced a 90-day pause on his sweeping tariffs on all countries, barring China. In the eight-point list, Trump mentioned currency manipulation - an accusation he has made previously on some countries for deliberately devaluing their currencies to make their exports more competitive while making US products costlier abroad. Another warning is about Value-Added Taxes (VATs) that are applied to imports but refunded on exports in many nations. The Republican leader also warned countries of dumping below cost, export and other government subsidies, protective agricultural standards, counterfeiting, piracy, and IP theft, and transshipping to evade tariffs. He also warned of protective technical standards, citing Japan's 'bowling ball test' - a claim Trump made ...

Russian President Vladimir Putin, under pressure from Washington to show willingness to make peace in Ukraine, proposed on Monday bilateral talks with Kyiv for the first time in years, and said he was open to more ceasefires after a one-day Easter truce. Separately, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy confirmed Kyiv was sending a delegation to London to meet with the United States and other Western countries on Wednesday. The London talks are a follow-up to a meeting in Paris last week in which the U.S. and European states discussed ways to end the more than three-year-old war. Putin, speaking to a Russian state TV reporter, said fighting had resumed after his surprise 30-hour Easter ceasefire, which he announced unilaterally on Saturday. Both countries accused the other of violating Putin's truce, which Kyiv had largely dismissed from the outset as a stunt. Washington said it would welcome an extension of the truce. Zelenskiy, who has called for it to be extended to a 30-...

MS Dhoni was left disappointed after the Chennai Super Kings captain was dismissed cheaply by Jasprit Bumrah during the IPL 2025 encounter against Mumbai Indians on Sunday. Dhoni, who played a significant knock in CSK's previous match, could manage to score just 4 runs in 6 matches against MI. On the fourth ball of the 19th over, Dhoni tried to slam a low full-toss for a six over deep backward square leg. However, he was not able to connect properly with the delivery and the ball went straight to Tilak Varma who completed a well-judged catch to end Dhoni's stay at the crease. It was a huge wicket for MI as Dhoni is well known for his shots in death overs and their celebration said it all. On the other hand, it was a disappointing show from Dhoni who failed to score big for his side and he was visibly upset with himself as he made his way back to the dressing room. Shivam Dube and Ravindra Jadeja cracked half-centuries and shared a 79-run partnership for the fourth wicket...

Chennai Super Kings continued their disappointing run in IPL 2025 as they slumped to a nine-wicket loss against Mumbai Indians on Sunday. It was a completely one-sided show as CSK were completely outplayed by MI at the Wankhede Stadium. CSK posted a total of 176/5 courtesy half-centuries from Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dube . However, Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma were in sublime form as they guided their side to a comprehensive victory. Following this loss, CSK remain at the bottom of the IPL table with just 4 points. As a result, they will have to win all six of their remaining games and hope for favourable results from other teams in order to have a chance to reach the IPL 2025 playoffs.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday said that Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the BJP are responsible for "instigating communal violence" in the state. “RSS and BJP are the ones who are instigating communal violence in West Bengal. People of the state should be extremely careful not to get trapped in their provocations. BJP and its allies have suddenly become very aggressive in West Bengal. These allies include RSS. These forces are using the backdrop of an unfortunate incident that happened due to provocation. They are using the backdrop to play divisive politics,” said the Chief Minister in her open letter. The Chief Minister added that they (RSS-BJP) want to "incite" riots, which can affect everyone. “We love all. We want to stay together. We condemn riots. We are against riots.

The denial from the BJP was firm and unequivocal. The ruling party at the Centre underlined that it respects the judiciary, and that the provocative comments made by its MPs - Nishikant Dubey and Dinesh Sharma - against the Supreme Court have nothing to do with the BJP.

Former Indian cricket team batter Virender Sehwag was extremely critical of Rohit Sharma as the Mumbai Indians star continued to struggle for runs in the ongoing IPL 2025. Rohit, who came into the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad with 56 runs in five innings, was dismissed for 26 by Pat Cummins. Rohit's dismal run has resulted in a lot of criticism from both experts as well as fans and Sehwag warned him that he needs to safeguard his legacy. Sehwag pointed out that he has just one 400-plus run IPL season and even hinted that it is time for Rohit to retire from the format. “If you look at Rohit's IPL numbers in the last 10 years, he scored more than 400 runs only once. So he is not the kind of player who thinks that I need to score 500 or 700 runs. If he thinks, he might. When he became the Indian captain, he said that he wanted to be the player who wants to cash in on the powerplay and take the chances, so he wanted to make all the sacrifices alone, but he is not considering ...

Italy's PM Giorgia Meloni will fly to Washington to speak with US President Donald Trump regarding tariffs on Europe. The tariffs will potentially be a lethal blow to Italian exporters.  However, her counterparts from Europe feel she may be the only European leader Trump might be willing to listen to, since Trump had said that she is "a fantastic leader and person", when he invited her to this inauguration ceremony in January. Other European leaders have tried to change the US President's mind through various means - flattery, threats or promises to buy more American gas, but the talks reached nowhere. Currently the European Union has three months to convince Trump not to slap 20 per cent duties on all its exports to the United States, apart from the baseline 10 per cent tariff with another 25 per cent on steel, aluminium and autos. As Meloni speaks to Trump on Thursday, it is Europe's opportunity to show that they can still do business with the US. Moreover sh...

Former Pakistan stalwarts Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Hafeez have clashed over a difference of opinion regarding the legacy left behind by Pakistan cricketers of the previous generation. Hafeez had stated that the era of Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis failed to deliver an ICC trophy for Pakistan. Instead, he said that it was the Pakistan team led by Younis Khan which won the T20 World Cup in 2009 and left a legacy for the future generations. However, Akhtar has retorted at Hafeez's comments brutally. "I am a big admirer of the cricketers from the 1990s, but when we talk about their legacy, it's clear they didn't bring home an ICC trophy," Hafeez had told Akhtar earlier. "They were part of the World Cups in 1996, 1999, and 2003, and despite our strong performances, we lost each time. In fact, we only made it to the 1999 final, and that loss was quite heavy," Hafeez further said. However, Akhtar has now responded to Hafeez's comments speaking on a...

The Waqf Amendment bill was passed by parliament earlier this month after marathon debates in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. Now, a three-judge bench of Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna and Justices Sanjay Kumar and KV Vishawnathan will hear the challenges to it at 2 pm. Earlier, the Supreme Court made it clear that it would not trespass into the domain of the legislature. But as the final arbiter on issues involving Constitution, it has agreed to hear the petitioners, who insist that the amended law tramples on several fundamental rights, including the right to equality and the right to pursue religious practices. Among those who challenged the law are leaders of Congress, Janata Dal United, Aam Aadmi Party, DMK and CPI; religious organizations and NGOs like Jamiat Ulema Hind and the All-India Muslim Personal Law Board.

In a case that has sparked debate in Ireland, a woman continued to collect her dead mother's pension for three years, claiming it was a way to keep her memory alive. The incident came to light in County Meath, where authorities recently discovered that pension payments intended for an elderly woman- who had died years earlier- were still being withdrawn. According to the Irish Mirror , 56-year-old Catherine Byrne, the woman's daughter, never registered her mother's death or informed the Department of Social Welfare, allowing the payments to continue unnoticed for over 36 months. The case was eventually brought before the Dundalk Circuit Court, where Catherine admitted to withdrawing the money but insisted it was not used for personal luxury. Instead, she claimed the funds were spent on flowers for her mother's grave, calling it her way of keeping her mother "alive". Despite the emotional explanation, the court ruled the act as serious welfare fraud. Catheri...

Punjab Kings defended the lowest-ever total in Indian Premier League (IPL) history as they beat Kolkata Knight Riders by 16 runs in a thrilling match in Mullanpur on Tuesday. Chasing 112 for a win, KKR were comfortably placed at 71 for 3 in 9.1 overs, but they suffered a sensational collapse to be bowled out for 95 in 15.1 overs.
