PUNE: The Dehu Road police on Tuesday arrested two men on the charge of threatening to shoot a man with a pistol, suspecting the latter had informed police about their illegal activities.
The duo — Shivkumar Bansode (26) and Ravi Anshigal (21) — have been charged under the relevant sections of the IPC and the Indian Arms Act. A 31-year-old resident of Ravet had filed an FIR with the police.
An officer said on Tuesday, the complainant and his friend were riding a bike. The duo stopped them in o lanes in Ramabainagar in Ravet. “Bansode threatened to shoot him for tipping off the police about their illegal activities,” the officer said.
He said Anshigal also abused the complainant for appealing to the youths from the colony to not indulge in criminal activities.
