In a series of gun firing incidents, one incident came to light where two people fired at each other due to an old dispute. The incident took place in front of Aggresan School in Yerwada around 3:30 to 4am on Friday morning.
Three bullets were fired at each other, fueled by anger over old disputes. The accused have been identified as Akash Satish Chandalia, Akshay Satish Chandalia, Amhala Satish Chandalia, Abhishek Sham Chandalia (all residents of Range hills, Pune), Sushant Prakash Kamble (resident of Parnkuti society, Yerwada), Sandesh Santosh Jadhav, Sanket Taru (residents of Jay Jawan Nagar Yerwada).
According to the police, in the preliminary information, the incident occurred due to personal disputes. Thirty-year-old victim Vicky Chandalia, a resident of Jay Jawan Nagar, operates a hotel in Yerwada jurisdiction. On midnight, goons entered a hotel in front of Agrasen High School and demanded money from the hotel operator Vicky Chandalia. However, Vicky refused to comply. Meanwhile, accused Akash Chandalia took out a pistol and fired at Vicky.
One of the bullets hit him on the right side of his abdomen above the waist. Later, his aides beat him and escaped from the spot. Injured Vicky was later admitted to a nearby hospital.
