Kin stage sit-in demanding arrest of main accused

Ulhasnagar: Tension prevailed in the Camp-5 area of Kailash Colony on Friday evening following the brutal double murder of two brothers in a broad daylight firing incident that has triggered outrage among local residents and the victims’ family members. Relatives of the deceased staged a sit-in protest on the main road, refusing to accept the bodies until all the accused are arrested. The bodies of brothers Anil Harkesh Chouhan (22) and Aman Harkesh Chouhan (17) were brought to their residence around 6:30 pm amid heavy police deployment to prevent any untoward incident. A large number of residents, including women, gathered near the house and raised slogans against the police administration, demanding immediate arrest of the main accused and strict punishment for all those involved in the attack. Protesters alleged that timely police action could have prevented the incident. The agitating relatives warned that they would not take custody of the bodies until the prime accused and all absconding suspects are arrested. The protest led to a tense atmosphere in the locality for several hours. Police officials remained at the spot and attempted to pacify the protesters while additional security personnel were deployed to maintain law and order. According to police, the firing incident took place on Thursday evening at Kailash Colony Chowk, where a gang of nearly 10 to 12 persons allegedly opened fire on members of the Chouhan family over an old rivalry. Anil and Aman Chouhan died on the spot, while Arjun Surajbali Chouhan sustained serious injuries and is currently undergoing treatment at a hospital. While speaking to, ‘The Perfect Voice’, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime) Amarsinh Jadhav said that two accused Shekhar Birajdar and Ajay Rao have been arrested in connection with the case. He added that four police teams have been formed to trace and arrest the remaining accused, and further investigation is underway. The incident has once again raised serious concerns over law and order in Ulhasnagar, with fear and anger spreading among local residents following the deadly attack.

Navy doc treat injured Pakistani crew

Mumbai: In a humanitarian gesture, the Indian Navy (IN) rendered lifesaving medical assistance to save the life of a Pakistani crewman on an Iranian fishing vessel in the Arabian Sea, officials said.


The operation took place on Friday/Saturday around 350 nautical miles in the high seas off Oman coast, with the help of the stealth frigate INS Trikand.


On April 4, the INS Trikand monitored a distress call from the Omani vessel 'Al Omeedi' seeking help for a crew member, who was seriously injured with multiple fractures and blood loss.


Further enquiry revealed that the distressed crewman was working on the vessel's engine when he sustained the grievous injuries and was transferred to another Iran-bound dhow, 'FV Abdul Rehman Hanzia', in the vicinity.

On getting the SOS, INS Trikand immediately altered her course to rush medical assistance to the injured crew.


The 'FV Abdul Rehman Hanzia' has a contingent of 11 Pakistanis and 5 Iranians manning the vessel.


The Indian warship's medical officer along with a team of Marine Commandos boarded the FV.


Ob board, the MO started the three hour long medical procedures, controlling the blood flow, suturing and splinting of the crew's injured fingers.

It was a timely response which prevented the patient's total loss of the injured fingers due to gangrene.


The IN stealth warship also provided crucial medical supplies, antibiotics to the FV to ensure the injured crew's wellbeing till the dhow reaches Iran.


The entire crew of the dhow expressed their gratitude to the IN for rendering assistance on time that helped saving their injured mate's life, said the IN officials.
