THANE: Four men have been arrested for allegedly threatening a Diva resident at gunpoint.
Police said one of the accused, hotelier Rupesh Patil (31), was in love with the complainant’s wife. He decided to intimidate him so that they would get separated and roped in the three men.
On September 15, around 10.30pm, when the complainant was in an autorickshaw, two men on an unnumbered bike waylaid them, flashed a revolver gun at him and threatened him. The complainant fled and later filed a police complaint.
Mumbra senior inspector Madhukar Kad said they arrested Rupesh, Sajan Patil (21), Sunny Rajbhar (21) and Ankit Shinde (25) on September 18 based on CCTV footage and intelligence inputs.
