Pune Police Conduct Gait Analysis and Reconstruction in Ketan Agarwal Murder CasePreviousNext

Pune police are intensifying their investigation into the June 18 murder of Ketan Agarwal at Lohagad Fort by conducting a gait analysis and crime scene reconstruction involving accused Chetan Chaudhary. The analysis aims to compare Chaudhary's walking pattern with CCTV footage showing a man in a hoodie near the crime scene. Authorities also used a dummy body to verify testimonies and gather forensic evidence, while the accused's lawyers have questioned aspects of the probe.
