Pune, 11th April 2022: In the crime patrol series, the police finally reach the criminals, but without realizing it, after watching the series, a man killed a woman acquaintance by giving her sleeping pills in a soft drink and decamped with her jewellery. However, the accused was arrested by the police in just 10 hours.
The accused has been identified as Kisan Sitaram Jagtap (46), a resident of Narlicha Mala in Purandar taluka of Pune district in Maharashtra. He had murdered Sunita Balu Kadam (44), a resident of Vaiduwadi, Hadapsar.
Sunita’s married daughter has lodged a complaint at Hadapsar police station. According to police, Sunita was living in Vaiduwadi with her daughter and son-in-law. It was found on Sunday morning (April 10) that someone had murdered Sunita and stolen her jewellery, mobile and ATM card and other items worth Rs 46,000. A murder case was registered by Hadapsar police station.
While investigating the case, police found CCTV footage of the area and zeroed on Jagtap who had the mobile phone. He was detained near his house.
According to police, Jagtap was living in Hadapsar Malwadi in 2009 when he got acquainted with Sunita. They remained in contact. He needed money for his daughter’s wedding. About three months ago, after watching the crime patrol series, he hatched a murder plot.
A police officer said, “Around 11.30 pm on Saturday, he bought a bottle of soft drink and laced it with sleeping pills. He went to meet Sunita and while talking he offered her the soft drink. After she became unconscious, he banged her head on the wall. He fled with her ornaments, ATM card and phone. To make it look like a robbery case, he scattered the things kept in the cupboard and the room. However, we solved the case within 10 hours after getting the information about the murder.”
The action was taken by a team comprising Police Inspector Hemant Patil, Assistant Police Inspector Krishna Babar, and police personnel Ramesh Sable, Mahesh Waghmare, Ashruba Morale, Pramod Tillekar, Praveen Kalbhor, Vishal Bhilare, Akbar Sheikh, Dawood Syed, Vilas Khadare and Prithviraj Pandule.
