A Madhya Pradesh judge convicted 14 persons of rioting, attempted murder, and murder in connection with a mob lynching case involving cow vigilantes. Following the conviction and life sentences, the judge received death threats and communal remarks on social media, prompting the registration of an FIR against the threateners.

This case involves the recovery of explosives in a vehicle near the residence of Mukesh Ambani and the subsequent death of businessman Mansukh Hiren. The investigation includes allegations of a conspiracy involving police officers, including Sachin Waze, and claims of extortion targeting influential figures.

Former Trinamool Congress councillor Debraj Chakraborty was arrested and faced 10 additional extortion cases and land-grab complaints within 24 hours of arrest. He and his wife, former TMC legislator and singer Aditi Munshi, have been booked in multiple cases including extortion, money laundering, criminal intimidation, and asset disproportionate to income. Both CBI and Enforcement Directorate are investigating various charges.
