The accused, Deepak Vishwakarma, is a property dealer and the two groups were at loggerheads owing to an old property-related issue.

Their bodies were found in a house, following which the police were alerted. Police officials reached the crime scene after receiving the information and took the victims to the nearby hospital, but the doctors declared them dead.

SSP, Prayagraj, Ajay Kumar said, “Four people, Yasin Ali, Sultan Ahmed, Imran Ali and Rasool Ahmed, all property dealers came to meet Deepak at his home. The two groups fought over a flat spread across 900 square feet, which led to a clash. All the four people had stamp papers and they forced Deepak to transfer the property in their names due to which the accused took out a gun and opened fire at Yasin and Sultan.”

ACCUSED ARRESTED

The victims sustained serious bullet injuries and a Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) team and dog squads were pressed into service for a further investigation. Police said that the accused has been arrested and he confessed to his crime.

“We have also taken Imran Ali and Rasool Ahmed into police custody and are questioning them. We have recovered two country-made pistols and cartridges from the spot.”

“The accused, Deepak Vishwakarma, has confessed to his crime of firing at two people and his statement has been recorded. We are investigating the case from all angles and further action will be taken as per law. We have arrested Ali and Ahmed and they are being questioned to crack the case. Further action will be taken based on the complaint,” the SSP said.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
