He's Judged Before His Crime is Proven: When SRK Defended Salman Khan
In an old video that has surfaced on the internet now, Shah Rukh Khan backs Salman Khan in his legal brushes saying it's a negative side of stardom that he's judged even before his crimes are proven.
In what came as a big relief for the film industry and the actor's loyal fan base, Salman Khan returned to his Mumbai residence, the Galaxy Apartments on Saturday night. The actor had spent 48 hours at the Jodhpur Central Jail after being convicted in the 1998 blackbuck poaching case. Several celebrities including Sonakshi Sinha, Arjun Rampal, Varun Dhawan, Sonu Sood, Subhash Ghai and Jaya Bachchan had expressed their disappointment over the verdict while still others including Daisy Shah, Jacqueline Fernandez, Ramesh Taurani, Malaika Arora and Amrita Arora among others visited Salman's family post the verdict.
While Shah Rukh Khan hasn't yet commented on the recent verdict, an old video has now surfaced on the internet wherein the actor is backing Salman saying that he often gets judged even before his crime is proven. "Sometimes I believe there are a lot of advantages of being a movie star but there's also a lot of negativity. I think one of the negatives of being a celebrity is that you get judged even before your crime is proved. This has happened time and again with Salman."
Tollywood actress Sri Reddy goes topless to protest against casting couch
Sri Reddy said that her protest by going topless was due to the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce's silence over incidents of the casting couch in Tollywood.
Tollywood actress Sri Reddy today went topless outside the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce at the posh Jubilee Hills in Hyderabad to protest against the casting couch in the Telugu film industry.
Sri Reddy said that her protest was because of the Film Chamber's silence over incidents of casting couch in Tollywood.
She was later removed by the police from the Chamber's premises.
Reddy had earlier hit headlines after she made sensational allegations on social media, of sexual exploitation, against some of the top Tollywood producers, directors and actors.
She has also been threatening to expose the names of those in the industry who sexually exploit aspiring actresses.
A Tollywood director and an actor-turned-politician have reportedly approached the police against her in the matter.
She has also demanded that at least 75% chance in Tollywood and a membership in the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce be given to native Telugu actors.

According to a report by The Times of India, Reddy stripped in front of the Chamber of Commerce as a mark of protest. She also brought to light the dearth of roles for Telugu actresses in the film industry. She added that most of the roles are given to "imported" actresses from Mumbai and elsewhere while local talent is pushed into the vicious circle of sexual exploitation.
She revealed that she has been sexually exploited in the past. She says, "They see the videos and give no roles. They have even asked for live nude videos from me. That is the extent to which they go to take advantage of women who seek roles," adds the Times of India report.
Reddy, in all her despair, said that she could not find any other means to gather the attention of authorities and make her point heard loud and clear. She said her protests would continue until the film producers start promoting local talent.
On 2 April, Reddy had also posted on Facebook alluding to a top filmmaker of being involved in a casting couch racket.
Algeria plane crashes near Boufarik airport; 100 soldiers dead; 10 updates
200 passengers were on the Algerian military plane. Of them, at least 105 are dead, including 26 Western Sahara Nationals
At least 100 people were killed when a military plane crashed soon after takeoff in a farm field in northern Algeria today, officials said. The cause of the crash was unclear, and an investigation has been opened, according to a Defense Ministry statement. Emergency services converged on the area near the Boufarik military base after the crash.
"There are more than 100 deaths. We can't say exact how many at this point," Mohammed Achour, chief spokesman for the civil protection agency, told The Associated Press. He said the plane was carrying soldiers. The Defense Ministry did not provide a death toll but expressed condolences to the victims' families. The flight had just taken off from Boufarik, about 30 kilometres southwest of the capital Algiers, for a military base in Bechar in southwest Algeria, Achour said. It was scheduled to make a layover in Tindouf in southern Algeria, home to many refugees from the neighbouring Western Sahara, a disputed territory annexed by Morocco. The Soviet-designed Il-76 military transport plane crashed in an agricultural zone with no residents, Achour said.
Here are the top 10 developments around the Algeria plane crash near the military base of Boufarik:
1. 200 passengers were on the military plane. Of them, at least 105 are dead, including 26Western Sahara Nationals.
"There are more than 100 deaths. We can't say exactly how many at this point," Mohammed Achour, chief spokesman for the civil protection agency, told The Associated Press.He said the plane was carrying soldiers. The Defense Ministry did not provide a death toll but expressed condolences to the victims' families.
2. 14 ambulances were at the scene and injured people were being transferred to hospital.
3. The flight had just taken off from Boufarik, about 30 kilometers southwest of the capital Algiers, for a military base in Bechar in southwest Algeria, chief spokesman for the civil protection agency said. It was scheduled to make a layover in Tindouf in southern Algeria, home to many refugees from neighboring Western Sahara, a disputed territory annexed by Morocco.
5. Boufarik is located in northern Algeria, near the Mediterranean sea, some 30 kilometres from the capital, Algiers.
6. The Algerie Presse service agency said the Iliouchine-type plane was headed for Bechar in south-western Algeria.
7. The crashed plane was an Ilyushin Il-76 strategic airlifter, Algerian media report.
8. In 2014, Air Algerie flight disappeared from radar screens over Mali 50 minutes after takeoff en route from Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso to Algiers with 110 passengers and six crew on board including 51 French nationals. The crash killed 77 people.
9. Small plane crash on golf course kills 6 in Phoenix suburb: Another plane crash, in the US, killed six people. The identities of those killed in the Monday night's fiery crash in Scottsdale were not made public. Nobody on the ground was hurt, said Kevin Watts, a Scottsdale Police Department spokesman.
10. Pilot dies in Myanmar military plane crash: A Myanmar pilot died on Wednesday after a "technical failure" caused his military jet fighter to plummet into a paddy field in the centre of the country, the army said. A live video on Facebook showed flames billowing up from the crash site near Kyunkone village about an hour away from the capital Naypyidaw. Local people found the unconscious body of the pilot attached to his parachute nearby and tried to drag him away from the scattered debris for medical help. The army chief's office later confirmed on its Facebook page that the crash was due to a "technical failure" and that the pilot died of his injuries on the way to a military hospital in nearby Taungoo town.
Kuldeep Singh Sengar, the BJP MLA from Uttar Pradesh’s Bangarmau district in Unnao, has been caught in controversy ever since he was accused of raping an 18-year-old woman in 2017.

But the BJP MLA has since rejected the charge as a conspiracy by his opponents. His brother Atul Singh, meanwhile, was arrested on Tuesday in connection with the alleged custodial killing.
Sengar, a political turncoat
Sengar, seen as Brahmin-dominant Unnao's most prominent Thakur leader, has earned the reputation of being a political turncoat. He is known for siding with whichever party is in power and has regularly changed parties and Assembly constituencies.
According to MyNeta, Kuldeep passed his Class 12 exams from Raja Shankar Sahay Inter College in Unnao in 1982. The leader has one criminal case registered against him related to the disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant (IPC Section-188) and assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty (IPC Section-353).
His political career started in 2002 when he was elected as a BSP MLA from Unnao Sadar. Ahead of the 2007 Assembly elections, he switched allegiance to the Samajwadi Party. He contested from Bangarmau as SP candidate and won.
Kuldeep again changed his seat to Bhagwant Nagar in Unnao in the 2012 elections and contested on an SP ticket. Then, before the 2017 Assembly election, he joined the BJP and once again won from the Bangarmau seat.
Kuldeep passed his Class 12 exams from Raja Shankar Sahay Inter College in Unnao. He started his political career with the Congress and became the pradhan of Makhi village in Unnao in 1997-98.
In 2002, he contested Assembly elections as a Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) candidate from Unnao Sadar constituency and won.
Family's political clout
Sengar's family has also been involved in politics. His wife Sangeeta was elected chairperson of the Unnao Zila panchayat during the SP regime, a position she still holds. His brother Manoj Sengar had won a local-level election.
A report in The Indian Express quoted a BJP leader as saying that Sengar is considered close to independent MLA (Kunda) Raghuraj Pratap Singh alias Raja Bhaiyya. "Sengar also gets votes of Muslims. He is the most influential Thakur leader in the entire district. With the combination of Muslims and Thakurs and some other upper castes, he wins the polls. While Brahmins are divided here, Sengar keeps the Thakurs united in his favour by helping them," he said.
The report said that the MLA is known to help local people financially. Another BJP leader quoted by The Indian Express said he offers Rs 10,000 as minimum cash gifts to brides in his constituency.
A Hindustan Times report quoted Unnao-based political analyst Shailendra Shukla as saying: "Kuldeep has positioned himself as a prominent Thakur leader in Brahmin-dominated Unnao. He has a good hold on Muslim votes and also enjoys the support of other upper castes. He has considerable support among lower caste voters too. His formula to win the election is through high social presence."
The report quoted a police officer posted in Unnao as saying that while Sengar is a full-time politician, his brothers Manoj and Atul work to maintain his image of a 'bahubali' leader. Both brothers have criminal cases against them.
"His family is feared in the region because of Manoj and Atul, who manage the muscle and money power of the family," the police official told Hindustan Times on condition of anonymity.
According to another report in The Indian Express, such is the clout of Sengar and his family, that the girl who accused him and her family have refused to return home, saying they fear for their lives.
The girl’s mother was quoted by the report as saying: "We will not return to the village until the situation is normal. The MLA and his associates must be planning something. No one in the village will dare support us. No one will raise his voice against the MLA and his family. They hold all administrative posts in the village."
On Monday, two police officers and four constables were suspended after the death in police custody, following which Adityanath summoned the accused BJP MLA. This came only a day after the woman had tried to commit suicide outside the chief minister's residence in Lucknow on Sunday, saying no action has been taken against the accused yet.
Later on Monday evening, Sengar arrived at the secretariat to offer his explanation to the chief minister, but reportedly could not meet him. The state's home department said the girl had not named the MLA in her first complaint lodged last year. "It is an unfortunate incident. ADG (Police) Lucknow has been asked to probe the matter thoroughly. Those at fault — whoever they might be — will not be spared," Adityanath said.
Briefly addressing the media after meeting Adityanath, Sengar ruled out the possibility of resignation. "Does one tender resignation upon being accused? Will you resign if your name comes up?" the MLA asked the reporters.
"There is no allegation against me — I'm open to any kind of investigation. Strict action should be taken against the real culprit," ANIquoted him as saying.
However, the woman had alleged that she was raped in June 2017 by Sengar. She also accused the police in Unnao of not taking any action or registering a case on her complaint, Vijay Sen Singh, in-charge of the Gautam Palli police station, said.
Airlines warned about Syria air strikes as US and allies ponder action
Singapore: ThePan-European air traffic control agency Eurocontrol on Wednesday warned airlines to exercise caution in the eastern Mediterranean due to the possible launch of air strikes into Syria in the following 72 hours.
Eurocontrol said that air-to-ground and/or cruise missiles could be used within that period and there was a possibility of intermittent disruption of radio navigation equipment.

US President Donald Trump and Western allies are discussing possible military action to punish Syria's President Bashar al-Assad for a suspected poison gas attack on Saturday on Douma, a rebel-held town that had held out against government forces.
Officials of the Trump administration have been discussing with officials of France and Britain a possible joint military response with the Associated Press quoting sources saying the allies have weighed launching a military strike as early as the end of this week.
Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop told ABC Radio on Wednesday Australia would support any proportionate action.
“I am not going to comment on US military actions. But if the United States does carry out an airstrike in response to this use of chemical weapons against citizens then Australia would support any action that is targeted calibrated and proportionate," she said.
US President Donald Trump cancelled a planned trip to Peru and Colombia to work on the Syria response.

Trump cancelled a planned trip to Latin America where he was due on Friday to focus instead on responding to the Syria incident, the White House said. Trump had on Monday warned of a quick, forceful response once responsibility for the Syria attack was established.
The Eurocontrol warning on its website did not specify the origin of any potential missile threat.
"Due to the possible launch of air strikes into Syria with air-to-ground and/or cruise missiles within the next 72 hours, and the possibility of intermittent disruption of radio navigation equipment, due consideration needs to be taken when planning flight operations in the Eastern Mediterranean/Nicosia FIR area," it said, referring to the designated airspace.
Aviation regulators in countries including the United States, United Kingdom, France and Germany have previously issued warnings against airlines entering Syrian airspace, but the Eurocontrol statement included a broader area outside the airspace controlled by Damascus.
Eurocontrol's warning cited a document from the European Aviation Safety Agency, Europe's safety regulator, a copy of which was not immediately available.

Russia vetoed a US-drafted resolution to create a new inquiry to ascertain blame for such attacks. The US and other countries then blocked a rival Russian bid to set up a different probe that would require the Security Council to attribute responsibility.
Moscow opposes any Western strike on its close ally Assad. Russian US Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia said Washington's decision to put forward its resolution could be a prelude to a Western strike on Syria.

"The United States is again trying to mislead the international community and is making yet one more step toward confrontation," Nebenzia told the 15-member Security Council. "It is clear that the provocation step has nothing to do with a desire to investigate what happened."
Twelve council members voted in favour of the US resolution, while Bolivia joined Russia in voting no, and China abstained. A resolution needs nine votes in favour and no vetoes by Russia, China, France, Britain or the US to pass.
"This resolution is the bare minimum that the council can do to respond to the attack," US ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley told the council before the vote.
A rival Russian bid to create a new inquiry into chemical weapons attacks in Syria failed after the draft resolution only received six votes in favour.
Moscow opposes any Western strike on its close ally and has vetoed Security Council action on Syria 12 times since the war in Syria started.
At least 60 people were killed and more than 1000 injured in Saturday's suspected chemical weapons attack on the town of Douma, according to a Syrian relief group.
Doctors and witnesses have said victims showed symptoms of poisoning, possibly by a nerve agent, and also reported the smell of chlorine gas.
International chemical weapons experts are expected to go to Douma to investigate the suspected poison gas attack.
The Hague-based Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) said Syria had been asked to make the necessary arrangements for the deployment of an investigation team.
The Assad government and Russia both urged the OPCW to investigate the allegations of chemical weapons use in Douma, a move by the two countries that was apparently aimed at averting any US-led action.

The ESA Just Discovered a Second Magnetic Field Surrounding Our Planet
How are we only seeing this now?
MIKE MCRAE
11 APR 2018
A trio of satellites studying our planet's magnetic field have shown details of the steady swell of a magnetic field produced by the ocean's tides.
Four years of data collected by the European Space Agency's (ESA) Swarm missionhave contributed to the mapping of this 'other' magnetic field, one that could help us build better models around global warming.
Physicist Nils Olsen from the Technical University of Denmark presented the surprising results at this year's European Geosciences Union meeting in Vienna, explaining how his team of researchers managed to detail such a faint signature.
"It's about 2 – 2.5 nanotesla at satellite altitude, which is about 20,000 times weaker than Earth's global magnetic field."
On a fundamental level, both fields are the result of a dynamo effect produced by charged particles being sloshed around in a fluid.
The stronger magnetic field that tugs on our compass needle forms from the steady movement of molten rock deep under our feet.
This field also leaves its signature in the alignment of particles embedded in Earth's crust, a pattern that has also been analysed in detail by Swarm.
In fact, the ESA also released the most detailed map to date of this mottled magnetic imprint at the meeting. Take a look at this stunning image below:
(ESA)
But it was details of the 'other' dynamo that astonished the meeting's audience.
Ions dissolved in our oceans' waters also produce an incredibly weak field as they move about in currents and tides.
The faint patterns created by movements such as the Gulf Stream are difficult to tease apart from the bold background of the stronger magnetic field.
But the ebb and flow of the tides as they're pulled by the orbiting Moon produces a clear pulse, one that makes those weak signals stand out.
Launched in 2013, Swarm consists of three identical satellites, currently orbiting between 300 (186 miles) and 530 kilometres (330 miles) overhead, tasked with collecting data on our planet's magnetic properties.
"We have used Swarm to measure the magnetic signals of tides from the ocean surface to the seabed, which gives us a truly global picture of how the ocean flows at all depths – and this is new," says Olsen.
Having multiple ways to study the movements of our ocean waters is serious business as we hone models describing the shifting patterns of heat energy around the globe.
As water is capable of holding onto significant amounts of heat, predicting our planet's ability to soak up excess warmth trapped by rising amounts of greenhouse gases relies on knowing precisely how tides and currents move in three dimensions.
Dark matter making us blind to alien life, says study
Our limited understanding of dark matter and energy may be making us blind to signals from intelligent alien life, which possibly exist in dimensions that humans cannot perceive.

Our limited understanding of dark matter and energy may be making us blind to signals from intelligent alien life, which possibly exist in dimensions that humans cannot perceive. “When we think of other intelligent beings, we tend to see them from our perceptive and conscience sieve; however we are limited by our sui generis (unique) vision of the world, and it’s hard for us to admit it,” said Gabriel de la Torre, from the University of Cadiz in Spain. “What we are trying to do with this differentiation is to contemplate other possibilities, for example, beings of dimensions that our mind cannot grasp; or intelligences based on dark matter or energy forms, which make up almost 95 per cent of the universe and which we are only beginning to glimpse,” said de la Torre. The researchers conducted an experiment with 137 people, who had to distinguish aerial photographs with artificial structures (buildings, roads) from others with natural elements (mountains, rivers).
In one of the images, a tiny character disguised as a gorilla was inserted to see if the participants noticed. “It is very striking, but very significant and representative at the same time, how our brain works,” said de la Torre. “Before doing the test to see the inattentional blindness we assessed the participants with a series of questions to determine their cognitive style (if they were more intuitive or rational), and it turned out that the intuitive individuals identified the gorilla of our photo more times than those more rational and methodical,” he said.
“If we transfer this to the problem of searching for other non-terrestrial intelligences, the question arises about whether our current strategy may result in us not perceiving the gorilla,” he said. “Our traditional conception of space is limited by our brain, and we may have the signs above and be unable to see them. Maybe we’re not looking in the right direction,” de la Torre said. “We can have the signal in front of us and not perceive it or be unable to identify it. If this happened, it would be an example of the cosmic gorilla effect. In fact, it could have happened in the past or it could be happening right now,” he said.
In the study published in the journal Acta Astronautica, researchers also pose how different classes of intelligent civilizations could be. They present a classification with three types based on five factors – biology, longevity, psychosocial aspects, technological progress and distribution in space. An example of Type 1 civilisations is ours, which could be ephemeral if it mishandles technology or planetary resources, or if it does not survive a cataclysm.
However, it could also evolve into a Type 2 civilization, characterised by the long longevity of its members, who control quantum and gravitational energy, manage space-time and are able to explore galaxies. The third type of intelligent civilization, the most advanced, would be constituted by exotic beings, with an eternal life, capable of creating in multidimensional and multiverse spaces, and with an absolute dominion of dark energy and matter.
Commonwealth Games 2018, Gold Coast: Shreyasi Singh wins Gold, know more about the Delhi-born shooter
The Delhi-born Shreyasi won the individual Silver medal in double trap in Glasgow
Shreyasi shot 96 in the finals and beat Australia's Emma Cox 2 shots to 1 in the shoot-off at Belmont Shooting Centre. The other Indian contender in the field, Varsha Varman finished fourth with 86.
The bronze medal went to Scotland's Linda Pearson who shot 87 to finish a point ahead of Varsha, who held the third place for a while.
By clinching Gold, the 26-year-old Shreyasi also improved on her silver medal-winning effort at the Glasgow Games four years ago.
"I'm feeling really well. In 2014, I won the silver and I was really upset that I couldn't win the gold but now, also I was trailing, but when I got the opportunity to fight more and fight harder in the shoot off, I was really happy about that, and I gave it 100 percent," Shreyasi said.
"Emma (COX, AUS) is, of course, a brilliant competitor to be winning the gold medal against, so lots of wishes to her. She shot really well, too. But I think God is on my side and I'm feeling really lucky."
Cox missed 12 of her 30 shots in the fourth round after placing herself in the gold medal position.
Interestingly, Shreyasi was on the second position while Varsha was on the third position after three rounds.
On her comeback after trailing in two rounds, Shreyasi said, "My coaches really helped me, and my family is also here so they were a big support for me. I just had it in me that I want to win the gold medal.
"I don't want to go back with another silver, I want to win the gold medal," she said.
Singh had won a silver medal in the double trap event at the 2017 Commonwealth Shooting Championships.
Shreyasi's grandfather and father served in the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) as its president. She had represented the country in two events at the 2010 Delhi Commonwealth Games Delhi, however, she failed to win a single medal.
The Delhi-born Shreyasi won the individual Silver medal in double trap in Glasgow and followed that by winning a Bronze medal at the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon.
The result of the ongoing Games ensured the experienced shooter won the elusive Gold.
Asked about celebrating the victory, she said, "I'm shooting in trap as well so I've got to get back to training and then shoot a competition the day after, so there's not much of a party right now. But maybe later."
