Kalinga Lancers overturn early setback to defeat Ranchi Royals 4–2 in Men’s HIL

Vedanta Kalinga Lancers recovered from an early deficit to register a 4–2 victory over Ranchi Royals in their opening fixture of the Hockey India League at the Mayor Radhakrishnan Hockey Stadium in Chennai on Sunday. The contest began at a frenetic pace, with Ranchi Royals striking inside the opening minute. Tom Boon converted an early penalty corner with a powerful drag-flick to put his side ahead.

Ranchi Royals reclaimed the lead soon after, as Mandeep Singh finished off a sharp move inside the circle to make it 2–1.

Dani Alves Accuser Appeals Rape Conviction Overturn

Dani Alves Accuser Appeals Rape Conviction Overturn

File photo of Dani Alves.© AFP The woman who accuses Dani Alves of raping her appealed on Monday the overturning of the former Brazil and Barcelona star’s conviction that sparked outrage in Spain, her lawyer said. Alves, 41, was sentenced to four-and-a-half years in jail in February last year after being found guilty of raping a young woman in the VIP bathroom of a Barcelona nightclub on December 31, 2022. But a Barcelona appeals court overturned the lower court’s ruling on March 28, saying Alves’ trial had inconsistencies and contradictions, and there was insufficient evidence to prove he was guilty. The complainant’s lawyer Ester Garcia told reporters on Monday that the appeal “was lodged today, which was the last day it could be submitted”. “For reasons of strategy, the reasons for which we are appealing will not be made public.” The public prosecutor’s office in the northeastern region of Catalonia announced last week that it would also appeal the ruling. A demonstration called by feminist groups in reaction to the decision drew hundreds …

Can Donald Trump overturn Hunter Biden’s presidential pardon? | World News

US President Joe Biden issued a “full and unconditional” pardon for his son Hunter Biden, who was expected to be sentenced this month over tax and gun violation convictions. Backtracking on his earlier statement on not interfering with the sentencing, Joe Biden said his son was being ‘treated differently’ by his own Department of Justice. In an official statement from the White House on December 2, the US president said, “For my entire career I have followed a simple principle: just tell the American people the truth. They’ll be fair-minded. Here’s the truth: I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice – and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further. I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision.” The presidential pardon angered both rivals and allies, with some Democrats on the fence about the decision. While US …

Trump pushes to overturn legal case tied to 2020 election loss | World News

Former US President Donald Trump has asked a federal judge to dismiss two key charges related to his alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 election results. Trump’s legal team claims that a recent Supreme Court ruling sets a higher standard for such charges, and they argue this should result in the charges being dropped. These charges are part of a case accusing Trump of trying to stop the certification of his loss to Joe Biden on January 6, 2021. His lawyers argue that, based on the Supreme Court’s June decision, prosecutors cannot prove that Trump intentionally disrupted the certification process.   The Supreme Court case involved a defendant charged in the January 6 Capitol riot. The ruling stated that obstruction charges must show an attempt to affect the “availability or integrity” of official documents or records. Along with the two obstruction charges, Trump is also trying to get the other charges against him dismissed. The indictment accuses him of a larger conspiracy to prevent his election loss from being officially confirmed. Trump has pleaded not guilty …

If voted to power, Congress will overturn SC verdict on Ram temple, says PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday claimed the Congress will reverse the Supreme Court verdict on Ram temple if voted to power just like its landmark 1985 ruling in the Shah Bano case was overturned by the Rajiv Gandhi government as part of the party`s appeasement politics. Modi said a senior Congress leader, who quit the party recently, has revealed that “shehzada” (a reference to MP Rahul Gandhi) called a meeting of select people after the 2019 SC verdict in the Ram temple case and said if his party comes back to power, the apex court decision will be overturned just like his father (then-PM Rajiv Gandhi) did in the Shah Bano matter. In 1985, the SC had ruled in favour of Shah Bano, a Muslim woman from Indore who had sought maintenance from her husband after divorce, but the then-Rajiv Gandhi government overturned the judgement through an Act. In November 2019, a five-judge apex court bench had paved the way for construction of a Ram temple in Ayodhya, ending a decades-long land dispute. The …
