Fateganj police have made a major revelation in the case of a fire and subsequent massive blast in a car in the Nayard area of Vadodara a few days ago. According to a report by Sandesh, this incident was not an accident but a pre-planned conspiracy. The police have arrested an accused named Jayesh Solanki in this matter.
Investigation has revealed that there was a dispute and personal grudge between the car owner, Pritesh Makwana, and the accused, Jayesh Solanki. Driven by this feeling of revenge, Jayesh Solanki decided to cause damage to Pritesh Makwana's car.
Two days ago, during the night, the accused splashed petrol on the car and set it on fire. After committing this act, the accused calmly went home and went to sleep. Due to the fire in the car, a powerful explosion occurred, possibly due to a gas cylinder inside or other reasons, which spread panic in the surrounding area. 4 innocent people were seriously injured in this incident.
The investigation team of Fateganj police station conducted a thorough examination of CCTV footage from the surrounding areas. With the help of technical evidence and informants, the police apprehended Jayesh Solanki within a matter of hours. The police have now initiated legal proceedings and further investigation is underway.
