Two very large crude carriers loaded with Iranian oil have reached Indian ports, ship tracking data from LSEG shows, as local refiners utilise a temporary waiver granted by the United States last month to resume purchases from Tehran for the first time in seven years. The current waiver is due to expire on April 19. The Iran-flagged Felicity has reached Sikka Port in western India, while the Curacao-flagged Jaya is at the eastern port of Odisha, the data shows. A VLCC carries 2 million barrels of oil. India, the world's third-biggest oil importer and consumer, has not received a cargo from Iran since May 2019 after coming under U.S. pressure not to buy the country's crude. Indian Oil Corp, the country's top refiner, has bought Iranian oil loaded on the Jaya, a vessel under U.S. sanctions, Reuters reported last week. India has also allowed Reliance Industries Ltd, the operator of the world's biggest refining complex, to buy Iranian oil loaded on the Comoros-flagged...
Muskan, who is in Meerut jail for the gruesome murder of her husband Saurabh Rajput and hiding his body in a blue drum, gave birth to a baby girl at the local medical college hospital on Monday evening, jail officials said.
Senior Jail Superintendent Dr Viresh Raj Sharma told PTI that Muskan was brought to the Lala Lajpat Rai Memorial Medical College here around 11.30 pm on Sunday after her labour pain increased.
Dr Shakun Singh, head of the Obstetrics Department, told PTI that the newborn weighed 2.4 kg and doctors successfully attempted a normal delivery. Both mother and child are healthy, jail officials said.
The senior jail superintendent said Muskan's family members have been informed. However, no one from the family visited Muskan at the hospital.
According to the hospital administration, Muskan's condition remained normal throughout the day, and she was continuously monitored. Given the sensitivity of the matter, police deployment has been increased around the main entrance and wards of the hospital.
Officials said that special instructions have been issued regarding security arrangements, and medical records are also being compiled from time to time.
Saurabh was killed on the night of March 4 at his house in Indiranagar in Meerut district. Muskan and her alleged lover, Sahil Shukla, are accused of drugging him and stabbing him to death.
It is alleged that they dismembered Saurabh's body, severing his head and hands, and hid the body parts in a blue drum filled with cement.
After the incident, both of them went to Himachal Pradesh.
The investigation into the sensational case revealed that Muskan had allegedly been planning the murder since November 2023, according to the police.
Saurabh was killed "not because of tantra-mantra, but because he was an obstacle in their love affair," the police claimed.
Muskan was arrested along with Sahil on March 18. Earlier, Muskan "confessed" to her family before she and Sahil were arrested.
Police sources said that according to the initial plan, the two accused wanted to pack the body in a suitcase and throw it away. A piece of bone was also found in the suitcase.
