In a significant breakthrough, the Crime Branch Unit 3 and the Anti-Gunda squad of Pimpri-Chinchwad police arrested Abdul Malik (45), a resident of Dudulgaon originally from Uttar Pradesh, in connection with the murder of Amusahab Mulla. The crime was reportedly driven by an extramarital affair between Abdul Malik and Jeba Mulla (30), the wife of the deceased.

According to Harish Mane, Assistant Police Inspector of the Anti-Gunda Squad, “Abdul and Jeba were romantically involved, and the murder occurred because Abdul Malik wanted to marry Jeba.”
