After Nagpur Times, Vinay joined Dinshaws in marketing. Taking stock of the situation, senior police officers of Nagpur Police rushed to the spot and conducted a panchanama.
An offence of murder was registered. Manhunt of the accused is underway.
This is the 13th incident of murder in the span of 24 days in February this year. While the series of murders continues, this raises serious questions about the law and order situation in the city, especially for the Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra and Union Minister.
