A young man named Hardik Santhalpara was murdered in the area behind the Medical College in Surendranagar, in connection with which the police have arrested the main accused, Sachin. According to a report by Sandesh, the motive behind this murder has emerged as a dispute over a love marriage.
There was a suspicion that the deceased, Hardik, had provided shelter to a couple residing in Surendranagar. Due to this matter, there had been verbal altercations and animosity between both parties for some time. Holding this grudge, the accused called Hardik under the pretext of a settlement and subsequently murdered him by inflicting knife wounds to his thigh area.
Following the incident, the police had commenced a search for the perpetrators. The police arrested the accused Sachin and took him to the crime scene for a procession to make him realise the consequences of the law. This procession, conducted to instill fear of the law among criminals, caused a stir in the area.
In this case of Hardik Santhalpara's murder, the police are continuously conducting investigations and strict action is being taken against the accused.
