Tragedy struck the peaceful neighborhood of Shastri Nagar in Kothrud last night as a 22-year-old man fell victim to a brutal attack. Gaurav Avinash Thorat, a local resident, was gunned down and then viciously attacked with swords and koytas by a group of individuals, leaving the community in shock and fear.
The suspects, including Dinesh Bhalerao, Sohel Sayyed, Rakesh Sawant, Sahil Wakde, Bandya Nagtilak, Lakhan Shirole, Aniket Umap, and a minor, have been named in the police report. The motive behind the attack appears to stem from a previous feud between Gaurav and one of the accused, Sohel.
Eyewitnesses report that the assailants confronted Gaurav and his friends near the Datt Temple late at night, with Sohel firing a shot that narrowly missed its target. What followed was a gruesome assault that resulted in Gaurav’s untimely death, sending shockwaves through the neighborhood.
This incident comes on the heels of another violent attack in the area involving the Gajanan Marne gang, further unsettling the residents of Kothrud. Senior Police Inspector Sandeep Deshmane is spearheading the investigation into this tragic event, striving to bring justice to the victim and closure to the community.
