Nagpur: District and additional sessions judge VP Ingle last week acquitted three persons, including two brothers, charged with murder of one Umesh Ingle at Wadi in 2014.

As per prosecution’s version, Prashant and Santosh Parteki, and Deepak Bhaisare stabbed Ingle to death after the deceased refused to serve them liquor and slapped Prashant. The trio was later arrested by Wadi police.

About 14 witnesses, including Ingle’s father Venkat and elder brother Narendra, had testified against the defendants in the court. However, contradictions in the testimonies led to the acquittal.
