A Thirty-one-year-old Woman Was Defrauded Of ₹17 Lakh By Fraudsters Posing As Police Officers
A 31-year-old woman from Thane was scammed out of Rs 17 lakh in a drugs-in-parcel fraud, according to local police. On September 6, the complainant received a call from an unknown person claiming that a parcel addressed to her, being sent from Mumbai to Taiwan, had been intercepted. The caller alleged that the parcel contained MD drugs and informed her that a case had been filed against her with the narcotics department.
The woman denied booking any parcel, but the call was transferred to another person who posed as a police officer. The imposter then conducted a video call with her, pretending to record her statement for the investigation.
In order to avoid further scrutiny, the complainant was pressured into depositing Rs 17 lakh into a bank account provided by the scammer. After complying, she informed her family, who helped her realize she had been duped. The victim then approached the police to register a case.
Authorities are investigating the incident and have urged the public to be vigilant against such fraudulent schemes, where scammers use fear tactics to extort money. The case has highlighted the need for awareness regarding online fraud.

Six Candidates For Jobs Who Stole Rs 1.31 Crore Were Arrested
Police in Navi Mumbai have accused six individuals of defrauding job applicants out of Rs 1.31 crore by falsely promising them clerical positions with the Indian Railways. According to officials from the Kharghar police station, between September 2022 and April 2023, the accused targeted 20 victims and collected the money through both cash and digital transfers.
One of the defendants reportedly used the embezzled funds to construct a house in Kolhapur. The victims, all Kharghar residents, initially trusted the promises made regarding job placements. However, when they began asking for updates on the positions, the accused stopped responding and refused to return the money. Realizing they had been deceived, the victims approached the police for help.
Authorities have registered a First Information Report (FIR) under Sections 34 (common intention), 406 (criminal breach of trust), and 420 (cheating) of the Indian Penal Code. Investigations are ongoing, and police are currently searching for the suspects involved in the scam.
The case has brought attention to the rising number of fraudulent schemes targeting job seekers, with law enforcement urging individuals to remain cautious when dealing with employment offers that appear too good to be true.

Vashi Doctors Remove Largest Adrenal Tumor in Maharashtra
Doctors at Fortis Hiranandani Hospital in Vashi successfully removed a massive 6.8 kg adrenal tumor, the largest ever recorded in Maharashtra, from a 44-year-old woman. The patient, Goma Mishra, a resident of Mira-Bhayandar, was diagnosed with the tumor, known as pheochromocytoma, during a routine health check-up.
The tumor, measuring 23 x 24 x 23 cm, was removed through an exploratory laparotomy, as opposed to the more common robotic or laparoscopic surgeries. The procedure was led by Dr. Shishir Shetty, Senior Consultant-Surgical Oncology, along with a multidisciplinary team.
“Given the tumor’s size and weight, we had to surgically open her abdomen to remove it,” Dr. Shetty explained. “The surgery presented a challenge due to the risk of extreme blood pressure fluctuations, which required careful coordination between the surgical and anesthetic teams.”
Goma’s tumor went undetected for a long time, as she displayed no symptoms. Her husband, Ashutosh, revealed that she was undergoing treatment for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) when doctors discovered the tumor.
Despite the complexities, the tumor was removed in 20 minutes, and Goma has since made a full recovery. She has returned to her daily routine with the support of her family.
