Mandai, 5th June 2025: A brutal murder near Pune’s Mandai Metro Station has been swiftly solved by police, with the arrest of a accused within just 24 hours. The incident occurred in the parking area outside the station on Wednesday. The victim, an unidentified man aged about 50, was found lying in a pool of blood and was declared dead at Sassoon General Hospital after being transported for urgent care.
According to police, the accused, Ramesh Prakash Satre (age 21, resident of Rahuri, Ahilyanagar District), was apprehended in Shirur taluka after a parallel investigation led by Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime) Pankaj Deshmukh, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime) Nikhil Pingle and Assistant Commissioner of Police (Crime 1) Ganesh Ingale. The Crime Branch Unit-1, led by Senior Police Inspector Shabbir Sayyad, acted on a tip-off from an informant, tracked Satre to a relative’s home in Borhade Mala, Shirur, and arrested him.
Investigations revealed the victim and the accused did not know each other. After consuming alcohol together, a dispute arose over unnatural relations, leading the accused to attack the stranger with a kitchen knife used for chopping onions, inflicting fatal wounds to the neck and throat. CCTV footage and informant cooperation were key to the swift arrest. The Vishrambaug Police are continuing further investigations into the case.
