Eleven years after three blasts claimed 27 lives in Mumbai, the trial in the case began before a special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) court in Mumbai on Thursday.

Special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam appeared for the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS).

At least 11 persons are facing trial in the case.

Three powerful blasts ripped through crowded areas in Dadar, Opera House and Zaveri Bazar localities of Mumbai on July 13, 2011, killing 27 people and injuring 127.

The ATS claimed that Yasin Bhatkal, one of the founders of the terrorist organization Indian Mujahideen, was the mastermind of the blasts.

The accused are facing charges including criminal conspiracy, murder, attempt to murder, causing hurt under the Indian Penal Code besides offences under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and MCOCA.

Teen Boy Beats Man To Death With Wooden Bat In Delhi: Cops

A 25-year-old man was arrested and a juvenile apprehended for allegedly killing an acquaintance who could not pay for a sound system he had rented from the accused in north Delhi's Sabzi Mandi area, police said on Thursday.

The accused, Raja, a resident of Mori Gate, and his 16-year-old associate were on the run and had switched off their mobile phones after the alleged crime.

The duo was arrested by plainclothes police while they were entering the Tis Hazari Court complex to meet Raja's lawyer on Wednesday, the police said.

The incident took place around 11 pm on January 29.

A passerby told the investigators that he witnessed the victim Munindra Kumar Shahi lying on the road in Mori Gate while a boy from his colony stood over him with a foot on his chest as Raja kept hitting him on the head with a heavy wooden baton.

When the passerby intervened, the accused fled, the police said.

The passerby and another person brought the injured victim to HRH Hospital where doctors declared him dead, they said.

Interrogations revealed that Raja ran a business of renting sound systems for small functions. The victim had rented a sound system from him for Rs 1,500 for New Year. However, Shahi was yet to pay Raja, resulting in a heated argument between them, Deputy Commissioner of Police (North) Sagar Singh Kalsi said.

On the night of January 29, there was another argument between the accused and Shahi over the issue, leading to the murder by Raja and his juvenile associate, he said.

Raja was previously found involved in a case of hurt (Section 319 of the Indian Penal Code) registered at Subzi Mandi police station.

A wooden baton and bloodstained clothes worn by the accused at the time of the murder have been recovered, the police said.

China's Xi Condemns Pakistan Mosque Blast, Says "Will Continue Support"

China's President Xi Jinping strongly condemned an attack at a mosque in neighbouring Pakistan, state media reported Wednesday, after rescue work ended with the death count at 101.

The suicide blast on Monday in Peshawar struck inside a police compound as hundreds of officers gathered for afternoon prayers.

The city's police chief said Tuesday that the attack was revenge for the force's frontline operations against Islamist militants.

In a call with Pakistan's President Arif Alvi on Wednesday, President Xi said China "opposes all forms of terrorism and strongly condemns the incident", according to state broadcaster CCTV.

Beijing "will continue to firmly support Pakistan in promoting its national counter-terrorism action plan, maintaining social stability and protecting the safety of the people," President Xi said.

China and Pakistan are longtime allies, with their leaders frequently hailing what they call an "iron brotherhood".

In recent years, Beijing has financed development projects in Pakistan and worked with Islamabad to combat terrorism and improve security.

But sporadic attacks on Chinese citizens have also taken place, including a suicide bombing last year targeting staff at a Confucius Institute in Karachi.

Myanmar Extends State Of Emergency By 6 Months

Myanmar's National Defence and Security Council has agreed to extend the country's state of emergency by six months, state media said Wednesday, likely delaying elections the junta had pledged to hold by August.

Junta chief Min Aung Hlaing's request to prolong the state of emergency declared when the generals toppled Aung San Suu Kyi's government in February 2021 was granted, state broadcaster MRTV said.

The "state of emergency will be extended for another six months starting from February 1", Acting President Myint Swe was quoted as saying.

"Sovereign power of the state has been transferred to commander in chief again," he added.

The state of emergency was due to expire at the end of January but on Tuesday the junta-stacked National Defence and Security Council met to discuss the state of the nation and concluded it "has not returned to normalcy yet".

Junta opponents, including anti-coup "People's Defence Forces" and a shadow government dominated by lawmakers from Suu Kyi's party, had tried to seize "state power by means of unrest and violence", the military's information team said in a statement.

Google Engineer Laid Off During Mental Health Leave, Shares Post

A US-based Google engineer was fired after receiving an email at 2 am while she was out on mental health leave. Ali Neil, 29, was among 12,000 workers laid off by the tech giant. 

In a LinkedIn post, Ms Neil said that at least her leave positioned her to be somewhat prepared for an event like this. It took her a few days to accept it and come to terms with what happened. 

She wrote, "After having some time to really settle with everything that's happened over the past week, I thought I'd add some colour to my exhausted post I shared early last Friday after not being able to sleep. It wasn't all that great still being awake at 2:06 AM to read that email."

She added that she was devastated by the news and Neil said that is "somewhat comfortably unsettling" to think about what is next after Google. 

She wrote, "I absolutely miss my team and the myriad of colours in the company culture that is Google, the experience of it all, and being Googley. But it's also such a good reminder in my life that, it's still an Enterprise Multinational Company. An Entity, not an Identity, and that means there's so much more to explore and continue to give 110% toward. I feel so very proud to have gotten where I am today, and to see what's next."

In her post, she thanked her teammates and managers for her time at the tech giant. 

In an interview with Insider, she said she was taken aback by the severance notice. "Now I'm left here having to find a job for the first time in years after being on mental health leave in quite possibly one of the most difficult hiring situations and housing markets."
