Three Arrested for Alleged Murder of Man in Dahanu Over Old EnmityPreviousNext

Three men were arrested in Dahanu taluka, Palghar, for the alleged murder of 24-year-old Nitin Chandu Pagi. Initially reported as an accidental death, the case was reclassified as murder after Pagi was found with severe facial injuries on November 1. Police linked the killing to an old enmity stemming from a quarrel at a marriage function a year earlier. The accused were identified and apprehended following the spotting of a vehicle used to transport the victim's body.
