Gangster's aide held for firing at student after robbery bid
Pune: The Pimpri Chinchwad crime branch on Wednesday claimed to have detected the case of firing on a 20-year-old student on August 1 when he was manning his father's grocery store in Pimpri market, following the arrest of Ravindra Ghare (40) — an associate of a Mumbai gangster. Ghare, a shooter of the gangster with at least 25 criminal cases against him, had decided to commit a robbery because he was in financial trouble. He had opened fire at the student, Bhavesh Kukarani, because he resisted the suspect's bid to snatch his gold chain. The student survived the incident. Joint commissioner of police, Pimpri Chinchwad, Shashikant Mahavarkar said, "A crime branch team led by senior police inspector Vijay Dhamal recovered Kukarani's gold chain, a country-made pistol, 11 cartridges and two stolen motorcycles from Ghare's possession."

Dhamal said the area where the suspect lived was overcrowded. "We identified Ghare with the help of his body structure. We took him into custody on August 6.

Hiranwar Gang's Arms Supplier Nabbed in MCOCA Murder Case
Nagpur: In a significant breakthrough, the Nagpur crime branch apprehended Himanshu alias Jordan Vaidya, a member of the Hiranwar gang, from Wathoda on Tuesday. Vaidya, a key accused in the murder of café owner Avinash Bhusari, was wanted under the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA). On April 14, Bhusari was fatally shot in Gokulpeth, allegedly by Hiranwar gang members who mistook him for a member of the rival Sheikhu gang. Investigations revealed that Vaidya, 30, an alleged arms supplier, had procured three firearms and cartridges from Madhya Pradesh, which were used in the crime. Acting on confidential intelligence, a team led by senior inspector Mahesh Sagade and DCP Rahul Maknikar picked up Vaidya from his residence. After the medical examination, he was presented before the ACP (Sitabuldi division) for further action. The arrest is being seen as a crucial step in dismantling the Hiranwar gang's organised crime network, which has been linked to multiple violent incidents in Nagpur, including Bhusari's murder.
