Pashan, 4th September 2024: A wanted criminal in an attempt to murder case has been arrested by the Detection Branch (DB) of Chaturshringi Police Station.

Chaturshringi Police have arrested Rohit, also known as Bhorya Shinde (age 21, resident of Uruli Kanchan, Pune). A case under sections 109 (attempt to murder), 324 (mischief), and 3(5) (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of the BNS, as well as relevant sections of the Arms Act of 1959 and the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act of 2013, was registered against him at Yerawada Police Station.
