Trupti Wagh
's husband, Avinash, and her father, Kiran Arjun Mangle, remained critical on Monday, authorities said.
Mangle (48), a former sub-inspector with the Central Reserve Police Force (
CRPF
), was furious with his MBBS graduate daughter marrying a Std XII pass distant relative against his wishes.
He fired three bullets from his licensed pistol at the young couple during a relative's pre-wedding ceremony at Chopda in Jalgaon district around 10.15pm on Saturday, leading to the death of Trupti (24). Wagh (28) received bullet injuries in his hand and back, requiring immediate medical attention. The family members who were with Wagh at the programme decided to shift him to Pune. "While Trupti died, the medical condition of Mangle and Wagh remains critical. Wagh has been shifted to the Sassoon General Hospital in Pune, while Mangle, admitted in Jalgaon, is put on ventilator support," said inspector Madhukar Salve of Chopda police.
Salve said Mangle, who was caught by the guests and relatives of Wagh attending the ceremony, was thrashed. He received grievous internal and external injuries. The police have recovered the pistol from Mangle, who has been booked for the murder of Trupti, along with his son.
According to Dr Yallapa Jadhav, medical superintendent of the Sassoon General Hospital, the patient is stable but critical. "He has received intestinal injuries and we have treated him for the injuries," Dr Jadhav said.
The police said Mangle was furious after his daughter eloped and married Wagh, who was not as educated as Trupti. "Mangle carried that anger all year round before he sought the opportunity. He travelled some 50km from his home in Shirpur, gatecrashed the event and opened fire at the couple," the police said.
Wagh works as a helper with a Pune-based private company and earns about Rs 12,000 a month.

SP MLA, minister spar over security of journalists in state
CITING THE arrests and murders of journalists in the state, the opposition on Tuesday questioned the government whether it would bring 'Patrakar Suraksha Kanoon' to ensure security of journalists. During question hour, SP MLA Sachin Yadav asked, 'Will the government bring Patrakar Suraksha Kanoon for the security of journalists in the state?' While elaborating on his supplementary question, Sachin spoke about how journalists were arrested while covering an exam paper leak case on Ballia and cited the recent murder of a journalist in Sitapur. Pointing out that several cases were registered against journalists during the Covid pandemic period, he claimed that less than one fourth of these cases led to convictions. 'In 2020, 361 journalists were arrested, while only 54 were later convicted. Aaj ka journalists physical attack, legal harassment jhel raha hai…' said Sachin. He asked the government if it would form such a committee to look into 'Right to access for investigation, Minimum wages for freelance journalists, Minimum advertisement to all, Censorship appeal to neutral committee and also protection against FIR until investigation…' To this, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Suresh Khanna responded by saying that the SP MLAs should be aware of the 'links of those involved in killing the journalist in Sitapur…' Khanna asserted that the government respects journalists and also appreciates their contribution and, when prompted by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath who was sitting next to him, also emphasised that the government also gave Rs 10 lakh ex-gratia on the death of journalists during the pandemic period. Khanna also alleged that instead journalists were harassed during the erstwhile SP government. Claiming that the government is working to ensure security of all, including journalists, Khanna informed the house that there is already a district level committee made for the purpose, which comprises the Superintendent of Police of that respective district, four senior journalists and officials of the Information Department as members, which meets once in two months to tackle such issues.

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Assistant inspector Rakesh Jadhav said on Tuesday that the businessman from Kondhwa Budruk came across a cellphone number of the fraudster posing as an agent on a social media site. The fraudster claimed he was helping parents and students secure admission in engineering colleges. Jadhav said the businessman contacted the fraudster over the phone and met him numerous times. During these meetings, the fraudster boasted of having good contacts with college officials and assured the businessman that he could help his son gain admission in a college of their choice. The police officer said the fraudster lured the businessman into paying a donation of Rs 2.8 lakh for securing admission. The victim, without verifying the fraudster's credentials, paid the donation in cash and online. The fraudster later issued a letter to the victim stating that his son had received provisional admission in an engineering college. The victim realised he was tricked after the college officials informed him that the letter was fake. After the fraudster failed to repay the money, the caterer initially filed a complaint application. Following verification, an FIR was registered. The police officer added that a police team was working on some clues to trace the fraudster as early as possible.
