Around 5.10 pm, Sachin left for some work, while Sushilkumar and Ashish went into the river for a swim. At about 5.30 pm, as they were returning from the water, four to five unknown youths approached them and asked Sushilkumar for a lighter. When he handed it over, the group suddenly began abusing him and his friend.
When the victims objected to the verbal abuse, the youths turned violent. Acting in coordination, the attackers struck Sushilkumar on the head with stones, causing him to lose consciousness. They also attacked Ashish with stones and then stabbed him in the chest with the clear intention to kill. The complainant was also stabbed in the back before the attackers fled from the scene.
Regaining some consciousness, Sushilkumar immediately contacted Sachin and the police for help. Both injured were rushed to the Sub District Hospital, Kamptee, where doctors declared Ashish Gondane dead on arrival. Sushilkumar, who sustained multiple injuries, is currently undergoing treatment at Max Hospital, Nagpur.
Based on Sushilkumar’s statement, Khaparkheda Police have registered a case under Sections 103(1), 109, 352, and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita against unidentified accused. API Meshram is leading the investigation, and efforts are underway to trace and arrest the attackers.
