TIMES NEWS NETWORK New Delhi: With the arrest of three people, in- cluding a parking lot contractor, the crime branch busted a gang of inter-state auto thieves on Thursday. Efforts are on to nab the remaining members of the gang which was al- legedly involved in over 70 cases of auto theft. ‘‘Apart from the two main accused, Puneet Narang a Delhi University graduate, and S K Mishra, we also arrested a Connaught Place parking contractor, R B Yadav, for providing car keys to the accused for duplication,’’ stated deputy commissioner of police (crime) Depen- dra Pathak. A Maruti Zen car bearing a fake registration number and 15 duplicate car keys were seized from the accused. They were arrested from the Pragati Maidan area. According to the police, the gang was in touch with similar gangs in Assam, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. ‘‘They provided stolen cars to their counterparts on demand. They used a computer-aided key making device to dupli- cate car keys,’’ said Pathak.

Two people, Raees Khan (22) and Dhyan Singh (20) have been arrested. ‘‘We laid a trap for them near Novelty cinema in Old Delhi. While these two were overpowered, an- other managed to escape. Five plastic cans contain- ing the substance were seized from them,’’ said deputy commissioner of police (narcotics and crime prevention) D L Kashyap. ‘‘The seized quantity of acetic anahydride could have produced about 568 kg of heroin. They bought the consignment at Rs 600 a litre and would have sold it at Rs 2,000 a litre,’’ added Kashyap. The narcotics branch in separate incidents also arrested two people and seized two kg of heroin from them. Mohammed Badshah (28), a notorious drug trafficker, was arrested from his Seelampur residence. ‘‘We found one kg heroin in his residence. In another incident, a man was arrested from Kash- miri Gate with a kg of heroin,’’ added Kashyap. Students hurt in accident New Delhi: Four students sustained injuries when the van they were travelling in was hit by a truck in the Sarai-Rohilla area.

TIMES NEWS NETWORK : After exhausting the mystery hostage-taker with all sorts of delaying tactics, including providing him a mobile phone and a bottle of whisky,the police took just sev- en seconds to storm into the house of Ashok Sonrik and res- cue his daughter, held hostage since Wednesday afternoon. The armed intruder was shot dead around 1.40 am and Ashna, 6, rescued. The child was sleeping when the police moved in. “He fired three rounds before the commandos shot him dead,” said DIG Dinkar Gupta. SSP Harpreet Singh Sidhu was thanked by the parents, who praised the cool strategy adopted in the entire operation.” We had to wait and watch as the life of the little girl was at stake. This half-crazed criminal could have done anything,” said Sidhu.

The seven petitioners are design expert and founder trustee of the Asian Heritage Foundation Rajiv Sethi, conservationist A G Krishna Menon, traditional water-harvest- ing expert Anupam Mishra, conservation architect Smita Dutta Makhija, conserva- tionist Malvika Singh and master craftsmen Hafiz Ahmed and Shamim Khan, who have been honoured with awards by the President.

LG enters handset market TIMES NEWS NETWORK New Delhi: South Korean consumer electronics major LG has entered the Indian cellular handset market, which is dominated by Nokia, Motorola and Sony Ericsson. LG, on the other hand, had so far been focusing on CDMA handsets. LG officials said the two handsets would be positioned at mid-to-high segments, with special focus on high-resolution colour displays, designs and LMS (long-message service), with about 3,200 characters. ‘‘We will introduce about three more models this year and a dozen more next year. By then we would have sold about 400,000 handsets,’’ said Praveen Valecha, group head of mo- bile phones. Valecha added LG’s 65K colour display would be a certain attraction. LG is planning to launch a camera phone in November. Microsoft warns of five new flaws, provides patches Seattle: Mi- crosoft Corp For safer software has an- Microsoft wants to nounced five • notify computer users new “criti- of patches regularly cal” flaws in its software •This applies to a and provided wide range of Microsoft patches to software stop hackers The flaws affect busi- accessing • nesses, individual users computers through a •The plan aims to make malicious software more secure programme similar to the devastating Blaster worm. The an- nouncement, part of an initiative to notify computer users of patches on a more regu- lar basis, applies to a wide range of Mi- crosoft software. Stephen Toulouse, a security programme manager, urged companies and individuals using the products to apply the patches in order to correct flaws in the software. The software, detailed on the website http://www.microsoft.com/security, in- cludes Microsoft’s Exchange e-mail server, Windows OS, Windows Messenger service and multimedia software for web browsers. The flaws affect businesses and individual users, Microsoft said, although the Messen- ger programme, which was created for en- terprises, won’t affect most consumers. “We’re trying to move from patch devel- opment to patch deployment,” Toulouse said, under a strategy to get customers to update Microsoft software more frequently. The plan to improve the software patch system was announced by CEO Steve Ballmer last week as part of Microsoft’s ongoing Trustworthy Computing initiative. The initiative aims to make its software more secure and reliable and was launched in early 2002. The world’s largest software company said it recognised the difficulty the multiple patches posed for companies, and set out to make it easier for them. Reuters
