Chandrapur Police Trace 98% of Missing Children in 5 Years Chandrapur police have successfully traced and reunited 1,155 of the 1,176 children reported missing or kidnapped in the district between 2021 and May 2026, achieving a recovery rate exceeding 98 percent. The achievement marks a significant milestone in the district’s efforts to locate missing children, with intensive search operations continuing for the remaining 21 cases. Police officials emphasized that locating every missing child remains a top priority, underscoring their commitment to resolving these cases. The success of the operation is attributed to state-wide initiatives such as Operation Shodh and Operation Muskaan, which were conducted under the guidance of the Chandrapur Police and the Women and Child Crime Prevention Department. These operations combine advanced technological tools with coordinated field actions to track missing children across district and state boundaries. Investigators rely on platforms like the TrackChild portal, the Crime and Criminal Tracking Network and Systems (CCTNS), CCTV footage, mobile phone location analysis, and technical intelligence to gather critical evidence. Collaboration with law enforcement agencies in other states has also been pivotal in tracing children who may have traveled outside Maharashtra. To strengthen their response, every police station in Chandrapur district has established a dedicated Missing Persons Cell. These cells are responsible for collecting intelligence, conducting technical investigations, and coordinating search efforts. The Anti-Human Trafficking Unit (AHTU) has played a key role in the rescue operations, highlighting the multifaceted approach to addressing child disappearances.#cctns #chandrapur_police #operation_shodh #operation_muskaan #trackchild_portal
63 bovines rescued in Chanda, 5 nabbed Chandrapur police intercepted two trucks on Mul Road, rescuing 63 cattle being transported illegally and seizing assets worth 58.2 lakh rupees. Five individuals were arrested during the operation, which took place near the MEL checkpoint. The action was part of a coordinated patrol initiated by the Superintendent of Police to combat illegal activities such as cattle smuggling, gambling, and property-related offenses. Officials confirmed the vehicles were stopped following a tip-off, leading to the discovery of the livestock. A total of 11 accused have been booked by Ramnagar police. The operation highlighted the police’s efforts to curb illegal trade in livestock, which has been a persistent issue in the region. Cattle smuggling often involves large-scale transportation of animals across state borders, bypassing legal channels and depriving farmers of fair market prices. The intercepted trucks were reportedly carrying the cattle without proper documentation, violating animal welfare and legal regulations. The Superintendent of Police emphasized that the coordinated patrol aimed to address multiple illicit activities simultaneously. By targeting smuggling networks, the police sought to disrupt organized crime and protect local economies. The seized assets, including the cattle and cash, will be handed over to authorities for further legal proceedings. The incident underscores the challenges faced by law enforcement in tackling cross-border smuggling. Despite increased patrols and intelligence-sharing, such operations remain critical to dismantling illegal networks. The rescued cattle will be transferred to government-run livestock centers, where they will be evaluated for health and market readiness.#chandrapur_police #superintendent_of_police #mul_road #melf_checkpoint #ramnagar_police
Vehicle Sale Scam: Vehicles Dismantled, Suspect Detained in Nagpur Chandrapur police have arrested a suspect in connection with a major vehicle fraud case involving the illegal takeover and dismantling of two dumpers belonging to a businessman from Bhadravati. The accused, Sabir Ali Sirajuddin Syed, allegedly lured the victim, Govind Atul Kundu, into a fraudulent sale by presenting notarized documents, but failed to pay the agreed amount or return the vehicles. The case came to light after Kundu reported the incident to authorities, prompting an investigation by Ghuggus police under the supervision of Inspector Yogesh Patil. The probe revealed that Syed had transported the two Tata dumpers (registered under MH-29-BE-1656 and MH-29-BE-1657) to Nagpur, where they were handed over to Jiya-ur-Rehman, alias Jiya Ansari. Acting on intelligence, police conducted a raid in Nagpur and detained Ansari. During interrogation, Ansari admitted to dismantling the dumpers using a gas-cutter at Syed’s instructions. Investigators recovered parts including the chassis, tyres, an oil tank, and other components. Further inquiries uncovered that Syed is linked to similar offenses in Chhattisgarh, where he remains in custody. The operation was led by senior district officials, with Police Inspector Prakash Raut overseeing the investigation. Authorities emphasized the need for vehicle owners to exercise caution when selling or leasing vehicles, urging them to ensure proper legal transfer, verify buyers, and complete all Regional Transport Office procedures to prevent fraud. The case highlights the growing prevalence of vehicle-related scams, with law enforcement agencies urging vigilance among owners.#nagpur #chandrapur_police #govind_atul_kundu #sabir_ali_sirajuddin_syed #jiya_ur_rehman
