According to police, the incident occurred at 8 pm when Shailendrasingh Gurucharansingh Lohiya alias Little Sardar (38) and his one unidentified friend were sitting in the courtyard of latter's office. Two assailants arrived on motorcycle and barged in the office premises. They took out weapon and aimed at Little Sardar. Total two rounds were fired and one bullet hit Little Sardar in his back while another bullet brushed his leg. Friend of Little Sardar fled the spot to save himself. The shooters fled the spot on the motorcycle and also threw the weapon on the road. Sardar called his friends for help and they admitted him at Wockhardt Hospital, Shankar Nagar, where doctors are treating him.
Staff of Pachpaoli Police Station led by Senior Police Inspector Narendra Hiwre and Crime Branch team led by Sr. PI Vaibhav Jadhav rushed to the spot after receiving information. Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone III) Sambhaji Kadam also visited the spot and directed the staff to collect evidence.
A team of Forensic Experts also reached the spot. A senior police officer informed that only Little Sardar and his friend were in the office and they were sitting on the benches in the courtyard. Shutter of the office was closed but not locked, the officer said. Little Sardar runs his office near Ashok Square and he is big way into property dealing.
It may be mentioned that the Little Sardar was booked under stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) last year. He had fired shots Jogender Singh Dillo and Goldy at Patankar Square.
A section of police officers suspect that entire incident is another drama enacted by “Little Sardar”. Though the attack on the goon happened between 8 pm and 8.15 pm however, the information reached police after an hour which has raised doubts among cops. This is happening first time that even after being fired at with aim of killing, the cops got information almost after an hour. Similarly it is also a bit casual on part of the attackers to leave behind the evidence, the weapon right at the crime spot so that it can easily found that has intrigued the police.
