Man Murdered a Person Over Sharing Kharra

In a distressing incident that shook the Wathoda area of Nagpur, a 35-year-old man met a brutal end at the hands of his friend following a dispute over sharing 'kharra' on Tuesday evening. The victim, identified as Jitendra, known as Jiddi Arun Gujar and a resident of Devi Nagar, fell victim to the violence allegedly perpetrated by Dinesh Bawankar (26), also a resident of Devi Nagar. The police swiftly took Dinesh into custody, and his father Anandrao Bawankar was also detained in connection with the case.

The police department revealed that Dinesh and his family operated a pan kiosk in Sangharsh Nagar and had no prior criminal records. However, tensions increased when Jitendra, who worked for a decoration contractor, engaged in a fight with Anandrao after the latter declined to provide him with complimentary 'kharra' from their kiosk. This disagreement led to Jitendra slapping Anandrao, further worsening the situation.

Anandrao rushed home and told the dispute to his son Dinesh. Under the influence of alcohol, Dinesh had an encounter with Jitendra. Subsequently, Dinesh, along with his father Anandrao, confronted Jitendra and stabbed him in the neck. Despite efforts to provide medical assistance, Jitendra succumbed to his injuries before any aid could be administered.

The Wathoda Police Station, led by Senior PI Vijay Dighe, promptly responded to the scene of the crime. The authorities transported Jitendra's body to the Government Medical College & Hospital for post-mortem examination as investigations into this tragic incident continue.
