In a shocking incident in Odhav, Ahmedabad, a man was murdered on the day of his niece’s engagement. The victim, Sunil, was trying to protect his niece from harassment by a young man named Jignesh Patni. Sunil and his friend went to Jignesh’s home to confront him about the harassment. They wanted Jignesh to delete photos of his niece, Reshma, from his mobile phone. This confrontation turned deadly when a dispute arose between the men. Jignesh, along with his two brothers, attacked Sunil with knives, leading to his death.
The police were alerted after the incident, which occurred on August 3 at around 8:30 PM. Sunil’s family was devastated as they prepared for the engagement ceremony. They demanded justice for Sunil, hoping that the attackers would face severe punishment.
The police arrested Jignesh Patni, his brother Arun, and another brother known as Vicky. They are all residents of Odhav and are involved in the scrap business. Sunil, on the other hand, worked for a private company. The police investigation revealed that Jignesh and Reshma had been classmates, which led to their friendship. Unfortunately, Jignesh began to harass Reshma after her engagement was announced. He even threatened to post her photos on social media.
Concerned for her safety, Reshma informed her family about Jignesh’s threats. In an effort to protect her and ensure that her engagement would not be affected, Sunil and his friend decided to confront Jignesh. However, this confrontation quickly escalated into violence. Sunil’s friend Ravi was also injured during the attack and was rushed to the hospital.
