A police official said that Kumbhre, a resident Mangli (Arab) village in Nagbhir teshil of Chandrapur district, was arrested for killing Aishwarya Sunil Chavan, a resident of Umred. The girl had went missing on August 6, 2018. 
Her parents, who are daily wage workers, had lodged a missing complaint with Umred police. However, the investigation had not moved even an inch for last three years. 
WAPI Sheetal Khobragade resumed investigation in the case. After checking Call Detail Records (CDRs) of the girl and her two sisters, the police suspected some phone calls made by Jitesh Waman Kumbhre (24), a liquor peddler, who was living at Mangli (Arab) village in Nagbhir teshil of Chandrapur district.
The woman cop conducted secret inquiry at Mangli (Arab) village and activated network of informers. A Standard X student told the informers that he had gone with Kumbhre to pick the girl from Umred in 2018. WAPI Khobragade then rounded up Kumbhre and his wife and interrogated them separately. During cross-checking of their statements, the police understood that the accused were misleading as their statement differed. The police then ‘grilled’ Kumbhre after which he confessed to committing murder of the girl. Kumbhre was married and father of a daughter and got involved in extra-marital affair with the girl. As the girl was forcing him for marriage, he had hatched a conspiracy of murder with involvement of two more persons to get rid of her. 
He had picked the girl from Umred and drove the vehicle to his village. After the 16-year-old boy deobarded from the vehicle at Mangli (Arab) village, Kumbhre took the girl in the jungle of Kanhalgaon where his agricultural land is situated. He had allegedly strangled to death Aishwarya and buried the body near his farm. The police are suspecting role of two more persons, including his wife in the murder case and helping Kumbhre in destroying the evidence.

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...

CONSTRUCTION work of 700-metre-long cable-stayed bridge, longest in the country, with a viewing gallery at the top at Ambhora in Kuhi tehsil is near completion. The bridge would be open for traffic in December this year providing a major boost to tourism at Shree Chaitanyeshwar Mahadev temple at Ambhora. It is set to open doors of development for the backward area of Kuhi and Umred tehsil. Ambhora, located 75 km from Nagpur city, is a famous religious and tourist place in Vidarbha. It is situated at the confluence of five rivers -- Wainganga, Kanhan, Aam, Kolari and Murza. Just around a decade ago the river bank housing Ambhora used to see a flux of tourists from all over the State.

However, now with the construction of the new bridge tourists will get a chance see the scenic backwaters across the river bed which is...
