Jism 2 star Sunny Leone says it is a shame when people in power waste their time one her, after CPI leader Atul Anjan demanded ban on a condom advertisement featuring the actress.

The 34-year-old former adult star took to Twitter and said instead of talking about her, people should focus on helping those in need.

“Sad when people of power waste their time and energy on me, instead of focusing on helping those in need!!!!! #SHAME #EPICFAIL” she tweeted.

During an event in Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh, Anjan contended that the “disgusting and dirty” advertisement featuring the “Ragini MMS 2” actress could lead to increase in rape incidents.

Leone will be next seen in the adult comedy “Mastizaade” which stars Tusshar Kapoor, Vir Das, Shaad Randhawa, Suresh Menon among others.

The Bombay High Court extended by around three months the temporary bail granted to former Delhi University Professor G N Saibaba, arrested for alleged Maoist links, considering his deteriorating health condition.

Saibaba was arrested by Maharashtra police last year. On June 30, the high court granted him temporary bail for three months to undergo medical treatment for multiple ailments including a degenerative spine disease.

The bail was granted by a division bench headed by Chief Justice Mohit Shah, which had converted into public interest litigation (PIL) a letter written by activist Purnima Upadhyay, which highlighted the deteriorating health condition of Saibaba who is 90 per cent disabled due to post-polio paralysis.

Senior advocate Gayatri Singh, appearing for Upadhyay, today told the court that although Saibaba is discharged from hospital, he would require regular treatment.

“His health has improved. If treatment is not received, he’ll go back into a situation worse than what he was suffering from,” Singh said adding that Saibaba has to return to the Nagpur Central Prison on October 4.

She also informed that five other accused in the same criminal case have been released on regular bail by the Nagpur bench of the high court.

The bench, while extending the temporary bail given to Saibaba till December 31, also directed that the earlier Rs. 50,000 bail bond shall continue. It also gave liberty to Saibaba to move the Nagpur bench of the high court seeking regular bail.

A Pune civil court has rejected a petition that sought an order to restrain leader of Shepherd community Hemant Patil from taking out a rally on September 29 to demand reservation in jobs and education for members of the tribe.

The petition was rejected by Pune civil judge S S Gulhane on technical grounds, according to the petitioner’s lawyer Mayur Narendra Gajbhiye.

The court ruled that the petition was not filed in a proper format and hence rejected it, the lawyer said.

The petition, filed by Rajesh Palve, contended that Patil had organised a rally in Pune to demand reservation for the Shepherd community by describing himself as “HP of Maharashtra” and drawing a parallel on the lines of a rally taken out by Hardik Patel in Gujarat for the Patel community.

It was pleaded that the rally slated to be held on September 29 in Maharashtra demanding reservations could create law and order problems just as the Gujarat rally over OBC quota had witnessed riots. Hence, the organiser should be restrained from taking out the procession, the petition pleaded.

Hitting out at media for “ignoring” significant events while choosing to focus on Sheena Bora murder case, Shiv Sena wondered whether media has justified its role as fourth pillar of democracy and if it is a true reflection of people’s thoughts.

The party came down heavily on the media for overlooking the 50th anniversary of the country’s 1965 war victory and being “deaf” towards the plight of Vidarbha and Marathwada regions which are reeling under severe drought.

“While covering Indrani case, the media ignored many other incidents that took place. The 50th anniversary of the 1965 Indo-Pak war was ignored. If the media ignored the supreme sacrifices made by our jawans to win the war, can media be called a reflection of people’s thoughts?” the Sena asked in an editorial in party mouthpiece ‘Saamana’.

“The media is giving minute details of what Indrani ate, drank in the lockup and whether she slept or not. There is a competition on this between media houses. At the same time, Vidarbha and Marathwada are reeling under severe drought conditions and people and cattle there are dying. But nobody hears their screams,” it said.

Taunting the media, the Shiv Sena said it seems like terror-related problems have ended, separatists in Jammu and Kashmir have given up their war against India and Pakistan has stopped ceasefire violations.

“It seems no jawan is being killed by Pakistanis now and no civilian is getting hurt. It seems all the problems of school students and teachers in Mumbai have been sorted out and problems related to food, clothing and shelter have ended and the only entertainment left now is Indrani?s case,” the Sena quipped.

Pointing out important issues like corruption drought situation, the ruling alliance partner said, “Poor people are selling their children for money and activists are being murdered. The media is only concentrating on the Sheena murder case.”

“In such a situation, can a confused and a deaf media be called the fourth pillar of democracy?” the party asked.

A man who allegedly stole a Harley Davidson bike on the pretext of trial run from a showroom in Banjara Hills in Hyderabad, was arrested in Mumbai and has turned out to be an IIT-Chennai graduate, police said.

Based on preliminary investigation, the accused was identified as Kiran, an ONGC employee working in Mumbai, an investigating officer said.

The accused, who is in his thirties, told the police that he graduated from IIT Chennai.

“We have picked him up in Mumbai in the early hours on Friday. He is being brought to Hyderabad. After reaching the city, he will be further interrogated and placed under arrest. We have to collect more details in connection with incident,” the officer said.

On September 1, Kiran, posing himself as a customer named Tahir Ali visited the showroom and filled the pro forma for test-drive, police had earlier said.

He then took the 750 cc (Harley Davidson–Street 750 model) bike for the test drive around the vicinity, but later escaped from another route even as a showroom employee followed him, they said.

Television news channels had then broadcast footage captured outside the showroom (based on CCTV) showing a person driving away with a bike and another following him.

A case on charges of theft and cheating under relevant IPC sections was registered in connection with the incident following a complaint.

The bike that he took, a Harley Davidson Street 750, is the cheapest in the stable. Its ex-showroom price is Rs. 4.32 lakh. The most expensive model in India is the Street Glide Special, which costs Rs. 29.91 lakh.

During investigation, police found that the phone number and email-ID details furnished by the accused in the proforma were found to be ‘fake’.

Vaishali Patil, a social-worker working for the tribals in Gagode village from 25 years, on Friday called the forest, where Sheena Bora was buried a ‘killer favourite,’ adding that actor Ranjit’s farm was located next door that had also seen six murders.

“It has been going on from 1986. This forest has become a place where murderers think they can hide their crime. In the farm nearby, which belonged to actor Ranjit, six murders happened,” said Patil.

“The whole village knows about this. We filed a complaint with the police then. But the offence wasn’t registered. Five of the six bodies were declared unidentified and cremated,” she added.

“We feel very insecure because of so many murder cases happening around here. Because you can never tell if your complaint will be registered or if legal action would be taken,” Patil continued.

In the Sheena Bora murder case, the body of the victim was found in the same Raigad forest by the Raigad Police.
