NCW has asked the state police chief to submit a detailed investigation report. The Pune Police are now in action mode as they have inquired about the whereabouts of the accused, Dattatray Gade. Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut claimed that the incident in the Shivshahi bus in Swargate depot from Pune is similar to the Nirbhaya case in Delhi. “Fortunately, the victim’s life was saved. Our Shiv Sainiks staged a strong protest at Swargates. Vasant More, Sanjay More and women activists protested. Now cases will be registered against them. There is no longer any fear of law to the gangs operating in Pune. The Home Minister is using the Home Department for political work mainly to harass the opposition,” said Uddhav Thackeray, the UDDhav Sena chief. The police sources said that Gade’s brother told them that the accused did not come to his home, and he does not have a mobile phone. Gade had committed a robbery at Kare Ghat near Shirur village in 2020. He was also charged with robbery and sentenced. He also has two cases registered in Shikrapur, Supa, Kedgaon and Kotwali police stations in the Ahilyanagar district. He is a history-sheeter and has three acres of ancestral land and a family house. He has a brother, a wife and children but has no job and was moving around in search of employment. He bought a four-wheeler in 2019 by raising a loan for transporting passengers. He used to give lifts, especially to elderly women wearing jewellery and rob them at knife point. He had contested the election in Gunat village for the post under the state government’s TantaMukti Abhiyan (dispute-free village campaign) but lost it. His parents work in the field. His future plans include developing SocialNews.XYZ into a News website that has no bias or judgment towards any of the news sources.
