Pistol supplier in Pingle murder case arrested
The supplier who provided a pistol to the accused in the murder of Kapil Pingle in Ranjangaon has been arrested in Jalna district.
Kapil, a 32-year-old, was shot dead near a quarry in Wadgaon Kolhati on Thursday night. The Waluj MIDC police arrested the accused Jayesh alias Yash Sanjay Fatelashkar Yadav (24, Begumpura), Vikas Suresh Jadhav (18, Jalna), Sagar Jeetsingh Vikas Muley (Jalna), and Bharat Kisan Padure (33, Begumpura). They confessed to killing Kapil because they suspected he had contracted to have Jayesh killed.
During the investigation, the accused revealed that they had obtained a pistol from an arms dealer in Jalna named Amar alias Atul Ganesh Pawar (40, Sadar Bazar, Jalna). They purchased the country-made pistol from him for ₹50,000. The police arrested Amar from Sadar Bazar in Jalna on Tuesday.
