Techie kills ex-wife in front of daughter, dies in car crash

November 14, 2016

Pune/Aurangabad, Nov 14: A Pune based software engineer died in a road accident early Saturday morning, hours after he allegedly murdered his divorced wife at her father's residence in Aurangabad.

murder Manoj Madhukar Garule (35), a resident of Sangvi, near Jagtap chowk, Pune, fled in his car after stabbing his ex-wife, Ashwini, in front of their eight-year-old daughter on Friday evening, the Aurangabad police said.

Garule was fleeing in his car towards Nashik at a very high speed and lost control over the vehicle while taking a turn. He was thrown out of the car, which somersaulted before landing in a farm along the road, the police said.

The police, who took Garule to the Government Medical College and Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries, soon realised that he was the man they were looking for. A blood-stained knife was recovered from his car.

Pune was rocked by a similar murder about four months ago. In July , 40-yea rold software engineer Manoj Patidar, working with a Hinjewadi-based IT major, shot his wife Anjali dead with a country-made pistol at her clinic on Wakad road, close to their rented accommodation. He was arrested within hours of the murder.

The Aurangabad police said Garule's second wife is in Nashik -her hometown -to celebrate Diwali and that payment of alimony to the divorced wife could be the motive for the murder.

Inspector Manish Kalyankar of the Aurangabad police said, "The couple got married in 2006, but Manoj started demanding dowry, following which Ashwini's father, Vishnu K Shinde, gave Rs 1.5 lakh to him for purchasing a flat. However, his dowry demands increased."

Shinde has stated in his complaint that after he failed to fulfill the frequent demands for dowry, Garule started harassing and torturing his daughter physically and mentally. Finally, Ashwini, along with her daughter, moved to her father's residence in Aurangabad and filed a case of domestic violence, followed by a suit for separation. The Aurangabad court ruled in favour of Ashwini and ordered Garule to pay an alimony of Rs 20,000 per month in 2012. "However, he gave only up to Rs 55, 000 intially and later defaulted on the payment."

"Manoj was working in a leading software company in Tathawade in Pune and was earning about Rs 1.50 lakh per month. He had done his graduation in BE (computers) from an engineering college in Nashik. He had moved to Pune in early 2006 for better prospects," Kalyankar said.

After the divorce, Garule married a widow and both were staying in Pune, he said.

Giving further details of the case, Kalyankar said that Ashwini and her daughter went to a mall and had some food there before returning home. Her parents have gone to Nashik. "After hearing Ashwini's daughter scream for help, her neighbours came and took her to a nearby hospital, where she was declared on arrival.

Manoj's father, Madhukar Garule (58) of Sinnar taluka in Nashik district, said in his statement to the Aurangabad police that he had two sons -Manoj and Amol. Amol died in an accident in 2010, he said.

No evidence of children’s murder in Muzaffarpur shelter home case: CBI tells Supreme Court

Agencies

January 8,2020

Muzaffarpur, Jan 8: There is no evidence of murder of children in Bihar's Muzaffarpur shelter home, the CBI on Wednesday told the Supreme Court.

The probe agency told the apex court that two skeletons were recovered from the home's premises which were later, in forensic investigation, found to be of a woman and a man.

A bench headed by Chief Justice S A Bobde accepted the status report of the CBI and allowed two officers to be relieved from the investigation team.

Attorney General K K Venugopal, appearing for the probe agency, said investigation was done on allegations of rape and sexual assault of children and charge sheets have been filed before the courts concerned.

Venugopal said the children, who were alleged to have been murdered, were later traced and found to be alive.

He said the CBI has investigated cases of 17 shelter homes in Bihar and charge sheets have been filed in 13 of them, while in four cases the preliminary inquiry was conducted and later closed as no evidence of any wrongdoing was found.

The probe agency, in its status report filed on Monday, said no incriminating evidence proving commission of any criminal offence could be gathered in four preliminary enquiries and as such no FIR has been registered.

The CBI had also said the Bihar government has been requested to take departmental action and action of cancellation of registration and blacklisting of concerned NGOs by providing them the result of investigation, i.e., the CBI report.

Several girls were allegedly sexually and physically assaulted at a shelter home run by an NGO in Bihar's Muzaffarpur. The issue had come to light following a report by the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS).

Following the report, a petition was filed in the apex court seeking lodging of an FIR and court-monitored probe by an independent agency into the allegations.

The plea filed by journalist Nivedita Jha through advocate Fauzia Shakil has sought "registration of FIR and independent investigations or court monitored probe into the affairs of these 14 (other) shelter homes in Bihar mentioned in the TISS report".

The apex court had directed the CBI to probe the offences under the Information Technology Act regarding the video recordings of the alleged assault on girls at the shelter home.

It had also directed the agency to investigate the role of "outsiders who were involved and facilitated the sexual assaults on the inmates", after administering them intoxicants and also against those who allegedly indulged in trafficking of girls from the shelter home.

The apex court had earlier directed the CBI to complete its probe into the alleged murder of 11 girls at the shelter home and asked it to file a status report.

The SC had transferred the case from Bihar to a Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) court in Saket District Court complex in Delhi.

Earlier, the top court had directed the CBI to conduct a probe into allegations of physical and sexual abuse of inmates in 16 other shelter homes in Bihar which were flagged in the TISS report.
