AMRAVATI
: Teosa police have arrested four persons who allegedly killed Shiv Sena’s city unit chief Amol Janardan Patil (36) with sharp weapons on Saturday night. One accused is absconding.
Old enmity was the reason behind the brutal killing, said police inspector Rita Uike.
Amol and his friend were sitting in front of Aashirwad Beer Bar around 10.15 last night when the accused Sandip Ramdas Dhobale (38), Pravin alias Babu Ramdas Dhobale (30), both residents of Shikshak Colony, Teosa,
Ankush alias Rajesh Ramesh Ghagare (31), a resident of Ashoknagar, Teosa, Pravin alias Avi Eknath Pande (30), a resident of Ratangir Maharaj Nagar, Teosa, and Gunwant Umap, a resident of Kalmapur, reached the spot and threw chilli powder in his eyes. They then attacked Amol with iron rods and sattur (machete). Amol collapsed in a pool of blood and died on the spot.
While a large crowd gathered on the spot after the incident, the accused sped away on their bikes.
PI Uike reached the spot with her staff and did spot panchnama.
