Nagpur, Maharashtra – In a tragic incident, an eatery owner, Raju Bhaurao Dhengre, was brutally murdered in the early hours of Saturday. According to the Kuhi police station official, the 48-year-old was attacked with a wooden log and strangled at his eatery in Pachgaon on the Nagpur-Umred road around 3:30 am. The culprits behind this heinous act were allegedly two of Dhengre’s employees with whom he had a financial dispute.

It is reported that the motive behind the murder stemmed from a disagreement over the salary and bonus of the accused employees. They had expressed a desire to go on Diwali vacations to their native Madhya Pradesh, which led to an argument with Dhengre. The situation escalated to the point where the perpetrators took the life of the eatery owner while he was asleep.

After committing the crime, the accused fled in Dhengre’s car, which they later abandoned after it crashed near a bridge on Naag river in Vhirgaon. The authorities are actively pursuing the culprits to ensure that they face justice for their actions.

In the wake of this tragedy, there has been an outpouring of support and demand for justice. Maharashtra Bharatiya Janata Party chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule has intervened, meeting with senior officials of Nagpur rural police to urge the immediate arrest of Dhengre’s killers. It is worth noting that Dhengre was also the general secretary of the party’s Umred taluka unit, adding another layer of significance to the case.

The loss of Raju Bhaurao Dhengre has sent shockwaves through the community, prompting calls for swift action to bring his perpetrators to justice. This devastating incident serves as a harsh reminder of the impact of unresolved disputes and the tragic consequences that can arise from them.
