An Indian-origin man has been awarded four life terms in prison after he was convicted of attempting four murders, including that of a ten-year-old, in Leicester, UK.
The accused identified as, Carlos Vinodchandra Racitalal (33), was found guilty for stabbing a 10-year-old boy, a woman in her 30s and a man in his 70s. He was also found guilty for hitting a five-year-old girl with his car. Apart from four counts of attempted murder, Racitalal was also convicted on three counts of possession of bladed articles.
During the hearing, the court ordered that Racitalal will spend a minimum term of 22 years and six months in jail. The bench headed by Justice Thomas Linden QC said, You are one of the more frightening types of offender from the point of view of the public, and particularly vulnerable members of the public, in that they will have no inkling of what is about to happen and therefore no opportunity to take evasive action. An additional concern is your apparent lack of insight into what you have done.
This was an extremely complex investigation with very distressing circumstances, said Detective Inspector Tim Lindley of the Leicestershire Police force. Terming it to be a heinous crime? and completely unprovoked, Detective Lindley added, Racitalal is an extremely dangerous man who had no concern, regard or remorse for any of his victims, who ranged from young children to an elderly man.

In the most unbelievable incident ever, four men were arrested for allegedly raping a Bengal monitor lizard in Sahyadri Tiger Reserve (STR). The reserve is spread over four districts of Satara, Sangli, Kolhapur and Ratnagiri in Maharashtra.
The gruesome incident took place at Gothane village in Ratnagiri district on March 31 when the four accused illegally entered Chandoli National Park (part of the reserve). One of the four was also carrying a gun for hunting.
The Maharashtra Forest Department checked the mobile phone of one of the accused and that’s when he learnt about the incident. The officials found the recording of the act, which showed the accused allegedly gang-raping the monitor lizard.
A forest official said the four accused were identified as Sandeep Tukaram Pawar, Mangesh Kamtekar, Akshay Kamtekar and Ramesh Ghag.
The official said, “During the investigation, the forest officials found that the accused had allegedly raped a Bengal monitor lizard. Their act was also recorded in a mobile phone of one of the accused persons. We have recovered all the related evidence from the accused and they were granted forest department custody initially, but are out on bail now. They have been asked to mark their presence before the forest officer, who is probing the case, every Monday.”
“The four accused have been booked under various sections of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972,” said field director of Sahyadri Tiger Reserve (STR), Nanasaheb Ladkat.
