Sebastian Zapeta, 33, who federal immigration officials said is a Guatemalan citizen who entered the US illegally, was arraigned in Brooklyn criminal court. He appeared briefly before a judge and wore a white jumpsuit over a weathered black hooded sweatshirt. He did not speak. He will remain jailed ahead of his next court date on Friday. The apparently random attack occurred on Sunday morning on a stationary F train at the Coney Island station in Brooklyn. Police said on Tuesday that identification of the victim was still “pending at this time”. Authorities say Zapeta approached the woman, who was sitting motionless in the train car and may have been sleeping, and used a lighter to set her clothing on fire. The woman quickly became engulfed in flames, while the suspect then sat at a bench on the subway platform and watched, according to police. Video posted to social media appeared to show the woman standing inside the train ablaze as some people look on from the platform, and at least one officer walks by. NYPD chief of transit Joseph Gulotta said that several officers had responded to the fire and one stayed to keep the crime scene “the way it’s supposed to be” while the others went to get fire extinguishers and transit workers. They were eventually able to douse the fire, but “unfortunately, it was too late”, Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said — the woman was pronounced dead at the scene. During Zapeta’s court hearing on Tuesday, Assistant District Attorney Ari Rottenberg said Zapeta at one point fanned the flames on the woman using his shirt. He said a 911 call from a subway rider helped identify Zapeta. Mr Rottenberg added that under interrogation Zapeta claimed he did not know what happened, noting that he consumes alcohol. But he alleged that Zapeta identified himself to interrogators in images related to the attack. Zapeta was taken into custody on Sunday afternoon while riding a train on the same subway line after police got a tip from some teenagers who recognised him from images circulated by the police. A Brooklyn address for Zapeta released by police matches a shelter that provides housing and substance abuse support. The shelter did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Federal immigration officials said Zapeta had been previously deported in 2018 but at some point reentered the US illegally. The crime — and the graphic video of it that ricocheted across social media — deepened a growing sense of unease among some New Yorkers about the safety of the subway system in a city where many residents take the subway multiple times each day.
The Ludhiana Police have filed six FIRs, including two against Delhi-based lawyer Vibhor Anand, for allegedly uploading doctored videos of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal’s speech about the Scheduled Caste community and farmers on social media. The FIRs stated that the videos have the potential to disturb peace in Punjab and other states, and they have hurt the sentiments of the SC/ST community. It is alleged that the videos were intentionally uploaded to tarnish Kejriwal’s public image and create unrest. The complaints were lodged by local AAP leaders from the Valmiki community in Ludhiana, leading to cases under sections of provocative statements, forgery, and offences under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act and the Information Technology (IT) Act. A complaint by AAP leader Vijay Danav claims that the video could “violate peace among the public and has hurt the sentiments of the community in Punjab and other states, besides being a deliberate attempt to malign Kejriwal’s image.” Similar FIRs have been registered at Dugri, Sahnewal, Haibowal, and Model Town police stations in Ludhiana. In another complaint filed by Surinder Kalyan, national president of Bhartiya Valmiki Sewa Dal Bhawasad and an AAP leader, it was alleged that the edited videos were aimed at inciting discord among communities. Notably, Kalyan’s wife, Usha Rani, recently won the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation elections on an AAP ticket. The cases have been registered under multiple sections of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including 192 (provocation with intent to cause riot), 336(4) (forgery), 352 (intentional insult with intent to breach peace), and 353(2) (creating enmity between different groups). Additionally, sections under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act and the Information Technology (IT) Act have been invoked. The police investigation is underway to identify the accused and ensure accountability for the alleged attempt to spread communal disharmony.
Storm in Ottawa: Secretive Letter Unveils Trudeau’s Uncertain Political FutureTweet Facebook Mail Scuffles and fistfights broke out between ruling party and opposition lawmakers in Serbia's parliament overnight, weeks after a deadly rail station roof collapse that ignited tensions in the Balkan state. The opposition wanted to discuss who is responsible for the crash that killed 15 people in the northern city of Novi Sad on November 1, while governing officials, who have a majority in Serbia's legislature, sought to adopt a bill on next year's state budget. The opposition displayed a banner showing a red hand print reading "blood is on your hands". The ruling party responded with a banner accusing the opposition of wanting "war while Serbia wants to work".

(AP) Scuffles erupted when the two sides tried to grab each other's banner. The rail station, a major hub, was recently renovated as part of a Serbian-Chinese partnership. Critics allege that corruption, poor oversight and inadequate construction work contributed to the tragedy. The collapse has fueled widespread anger toward the government and protests, becoming a flashpoint for broader dissatisfaction with Serbia's authoritarian rule. There are growing public demands for transparency while the country undertakes large infrastructure projects, mostly with Chinese state companies.

(AP) Serbia's parliament speaker Ana Brnabic yesterday accused the opposition of wanting to come to power by force with help from outside. "There is not a hint, not a grain of doubt, that these are people who are well organised, who were trained quite well, I believe paid well, to create chaos in Serbia and destabilise our country," she said. Serbia's autocratic President Aleksandar Vucic said on Instagram that the "daily bullying" and "the savage behaviour" of the opposition would not be tolerated.

"Today they tried to prevent pensioners from receiving their increased pensions, public sector employees from their increased salaries. They won't succeed." Opposition leader Dragan Djilas said the speaker had "shut down" the parliament by refusing to allow a debate on who's responsible for the tragedy. "She started with that when she refused to put on the agenda the request of more than 80 members of the opposition for a debate on confidence in the government because of the murder and crime in Novi Sad," Djilas said.

Rupiah Intervention Shows EM’s Strong-Dollar HeadacheTrump chooses Pam Bondi for attorney general pick after Gaetz withdraws
Cameron Haffner helps Evansville end five-game skid with 57-40 victory over Missouri StateTwo B.C. critical mineral recycling technology companies announced plans today to build a plant in Texas that would produce magnet metals from e-waste. The American company, HyProMag, has completed a feasibility study for the construction of a US$125 million magnet recycling plant in Dallas Fort Worth, Texas. HyProMag has been commercializing a process for recycling magnets -- Hydrogen Processing of Magnet Scrap (HPMS) -- developed by the University of Birmingham Magnetic Materials Group. HyProMag is owned by Maginito Ltd . – subsidiary of two B.C. headquartered companies, CoTec Holdings Corp. (TSX-V:CTH, OTCQB:CTHCF) and Mkango Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:MKA, AIM:MKA). In a feasibility study released today, CoTec revealed plans for a recycling plant in Texas that would produce “permanent magnets” from e-waste – mainly from hard drive discs from computers. Recycling critical minerals, including rare earths and magnet metals, is becoming a security issue for the U.S., Europe and other Western countries and allied nations. “The Chinese have been taking steps recently to restrict various strategic materials,” CoTec CEO Julian Treger told BIV News. “Most recently the Russians have done something on uranium. And it’s just a matter of time before there are further restrictions on rare earths magnets. And they are crucial not only for strategic purposes such as night goggles and ballistic missile guidance systems, but also for drones, robots and super necessary in the hard drives that power AI. So, sooner or later, the ability to generate a domestic recycled supply of these materials is going to be very, very valuable.” The proposed Texas plant would produce 750 metric tonnes annually of recycled neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) – otherwise known as permanent magnets -- over a 40 year operating life, according to the feasibility study. Given the national security concerns over securing domestic supplies of critical minerals and materials, the companies will be looking for grants from the American government to help build the plant Treger said. “We’re also going button down the feedstock supply, and we’re engaging with a number of people in the U.S. industry who can supply us with the waste that we need. And then there are a number of people who want to be customers. All of that needs to be buttoned down before we move to the financing phase. Obviously that will depend on how successful we are in obtaining grants.” CoTec is focused on identifying and acquiring mineral recovery technology. CoTec’s senior management includes former executives and engineers from major mining companies like Rio Tinto and Anglo Pacific Group Plc, and its board of directors includes Bob Harward -- a retired U.S. Navy Vice Admiral and former Deputy Commander of the United States Central Command. “We, as CoTec, have looked at 400 technologies,” Treger said. “We’ve invested in six, so far. We are very picky about things that are really category killers and really move the needle and are disruptive.” “It’s an attempt to invent the 21 st Century responsible commodity extraction business – super green, very low carbon, low cost – and finally deploying the disruptive technologies which are out there (but) which the major mining companies haven’t done so far because of inertia,” Treger said. Making permanent magnets from neodymium, iron and boron is a complex, painstaking process, Treger said. The HyProMag process extracts the NdFeB from spent magnets, rendering them into a powder and then uses a process for reconstituting the magnets in what Teger describes as a “short-looped process.” “We don’t process the individual elements – we just recycle the mix,” Treger said. “It’s a way for the West to basically use its embedded, vast historic supply of magnets in a really strategic way to be much more self-sufficient, which is why it’s obviously of great interest to the U.S. and the Defence sector. “The short-looped process is a short-cut getting these things made and produced, whereas most other recycling opportunities I see are looking to recycle the individual elements of the rare earths, which is very, very difficult thing to do.” Other technologies the company has invested in include copper and iron extraction from copper and iron mine waste. One of the companies CoTec has invested in is Ceibo, which developed a copper recovery technology that Glencore recently announced it will be using at the Lomas Bayas copper mine in Chile. Treger said there is potential for a lot of copper and iron waste recovery in Canada. “We have a major interest in waste,” Treger said. “In Canada alone there are 10,000 closed mines, with waste associated with them, which have enormous liabilities. “We are looking at an iron ore recycling project in Quebec to see how we can scale this and work with the various provinces to minimize their rehabilitation coat and use the historic legacy of all this waste we have hanging around to supply the materials that the west is going to need.” [email protected] twitter.com/nbennett_biv

Mutual of America Capital Management LLC Sells 1,701 Shares of Ryder System, Inc. (NYSE:R)MANCHESTER, England -- When does a blip become a crisis? Manchester City 's losing run went from four games to five against Tottenham Hotspur , who won 4-0 at the Etihad Stadium in a blistering display of counter-attacking football. With players back from injury and doubts about manager Pep Guardiola's future put to bed with a new contract, the international break was supposed to be something of a reset for City. Instead, Spurs exposed the champions' defensive vulnerability -- thanks in large part to a majestic performance from Dejan Kulusevski -- while Erling Haaland had an off day at the other end. It's too early to write off Guardiola's team in a title race that hasn't even started, but the Catalan coach is now further into uncharted territory. Editor's Picks How much closer is Postecoglou to ending Tottenham's wait for a trophy? 3d Joey Lynch State of play at Man City: Guardiola's future, squad uncertainty and exec turnover 4d Rob Dawson A team in crisis: What's behind Man City's recent struggles? 13d Mark Ogden Never before has he lost five consecutive games as a manager and never before has he lost three straight Premier League games as City boss. They're not quite the records he's used to setting. "When you lose 4-0, there is nothing to say but to congratulate Tottenham," said Guardiola. "We are a bit fragile right now, that is obvious. We struggled to score goals and after when they arrived they scored. We are playing a little bit in our thoughts, a little bit of negativity but this is normal." At first, everything seemed right in City's world. The home fans gave Rodri a standing ovation as he showed off his Ballon d'Or for the first time. And as kickoff approached, they began to sing in appreciation of Guardiola, who signed his new two-year deal on Thursday . For 10 minutes, City were dominant. Haaland had two golden chances to score and it felt like only a matter of time before the Spurs goal would be breached and the floodgates would open. But maybe this isn't the same team. Maybe it's unfair to expect them to be with Rodri -- the lynchpin in midfield -- sat in the stands rather than on the pitch. With everyone expecting an imminent Spurs collapse, it was performed, instead, by City. There were nearly 15 minutes on the clock before the visitors had control of the ball long enough to think about venturing forward. When they did, it was executed with pace and precision. Kulusevski might never hit a better pass than the one which James Maddison guided in with a close-range volley to score his first of the night on his 28th birthday. Son Heung-Min forced a fantastic full-stretch save from Ederson and then gave the birthday boy his gift with a clever reverse pass to set up Maddison's second in seven minutes. In the pouring Manchester rain, Guardiola took off his coat as if to send a message to his players that it was time to roll up their sleeves. In January 2023, Spurs went 2-0 up at the Etihad before City roared back to win 4-2 . There was no response this time. Pedro Porro scored a third just after half-time and substitute Brennan Johnson added a fourth in injury time to put the exclamation point on a resounding victory. It was City's first defeat at the Etihad for more than two years and their largest home defeat in the league since losing 5-1 to Arsenal in February 2003. "You don't come to a place like this thinking it's going to be as convincing as it was for us," said manager Ange Postecoglou, who was without first-choice centre-back pairing Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero . "City test you in every way. We got to a really strong level today. Credit to the lads because I thought they were outstanding. We knew we'd have to weather the storm which we did. It's significant because they've got an unbelievable record at home." For the first time in a long time, Guardiola has issues to solve. Without Rodri and injured understudy Mateo Kovacic , City's midfield of Ilkay Gündogan , Rico Lewis and Bernardo Silva were trampled into the floor by Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr . Gündogan was particularly poor. He simply couldn't keep up with the speed of the Spurs' attacks, although he wasn't alone in that. Kyle Walker has looked a shadow of himself this season and he won't want to watch a reply of Timo Werner flying past him to set up the fourth goal. City have now conceded 14 goals in their last five games and it would have been worse if Ederson had not made three good saves. In six home league games so far this season, City have conceded the first goal in four. Guardiola will hope that Rúben Dias -- who has missed the last five games through injury -- can return soon, but there was a further blow when John Stones , starting a Premier League game for the first time in more than a month, was forced off at half-time. City have a chance to break their losing run against Feyenoord in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday. Next up in the league is a daunting trip to Anfield on Sunday. "It's a great game to turn it around, to take three points off the team that's sat above you," said Walker. "But we can't go out there and do a performance like that [against Tottenham], because we're going to get walked over there." "We have to break the results because the victories help us to be more positive and confident and we have to do it," Guardiola added. "We cannot run away, we have to face it and try to make the next game." After a bruising run, Liverpool at Anfield offers the chance to prove the doubters wrong. Or, possibly, cast City further into the mire.After a successful 100-day theatrical run, the Kannada film Krishnam Pranaya Sakhi is now set to premiere on Sun Nxt.
