Indian teens kill granny for Indian Premier League bets
PANAJI - Indian police in Goa said Thursday they had arrested two teenage males on suspicion of killing their grandmother and taking her money to gamble on Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket games.
The youngsters, aged 14 and 15, were among a gang of five held by police for the alleged murder of 65-year-old Linda Cajetan Andrade, who was found naked in her home last month.
The group are suspected of stealing 400,000 rupees (S$9,530) and some gold ornaments from her home.
"These boys wanted money to bet on the Indian Premier League and the (football) Euro cup," police superintendent Arvind Gawas told AFP, adding that the cash was used for betting but that it was unclear how much was gambled.
"After the murder and robbery they sold all the gold and distributed the money amongst themselves," he said. "They betted during the IPL and continued during the Euro cup."
The five accused were picked up from different locations in the south of the holiday state of Goa after one of them confessed to the crime, Gawas said.
Along with the grandsons are three males aged 15,19 and 21.

Google adds face blurring technology to YouTube
Google has added a new face blurring feature into YouTube in an effort
to provide visual anonymity for video on the network. Google says the
new feature has been added following a recent observation from human
rights group called WITNESS that no social networking site offers such
technology.
Speaking about visual anonymity, Google says it is proud to be a home for activist videos, and hopes the new feature will encourage more people to speak out against oppression. "Visual anonymity in video allows people to share personal footage more widely and to speak out when they otherwise may not," the blog post further stresses.
To use the feature, users need to select the video they want to edit within YouTube's
Video Enhancement tool, then go to Additional Features and click the
“Apply” button placed under the 'Blur All Faces' option. YouTube also
lets you have a preview of the video before making it live. There is
also an option to delete the non-blurred and original copy of the video
from your account.
Google
has explained the feature with an example of the Arab Spring protests
in Egypt. The Internet giant, however, points out that this feature is
an “emerging technology” and that it might not be 100 percent accurate.
“Whether you want to share sensitive
protest footage without exposing the faces of the activists involved, or
share the winning point in your 8-year-old’s basketball game without
broadcasting the children’s faces to the world, our face blurring
technology is a first step towards providing visual anonymity for video
on YouTube,” says Google in a blog post.
Speaking about visual anonymity, Google says it is proud to be a home for activist videos, and hopes the new feature will encourage more people to speak out against oppression. "Visual anonymity in video allows people to share personal footage more widely and to speak out when they otherwise may not," the blog post further stresses.
"Because human rights footage, in
particular, opens up new risks to the people posting videos and to those
filmed, it's important to keep in mind other ways to protect yourself
in the people in your videos. YouTube is proud to be a destination where
people worldwide come to share their stories, including activists,” the
post concludes.
In the recent past, Google has been using this technology to blur faces and licence plate numbers on its Street View mapping service.
