AURANGABAD: A 48-year-old man was arrested by Nanded police in the wee hours of Wednesday on charge of murder after he allegedly stabbed his younger brother to death.
The incident took place in Mahadev Pimpalgaon of Ardhapur taluka following which police swung into action and nabbed the suspect. The deceased has been identified as Anil Kalyankar, while the suspect has been identified as Digambar. The incident took place when Anil was intercepted by Digambar when the former was heading home.
The accused first started abusing Anil and before anyone could understand anything, the suspect allegedly stabbed the latter multiple times on the chest and stomach. After the incident, Digambar managed to flee, while the villagers rushed the injured man to the hospital where he was declared brought dead.
Ardhapur police maintained that prima facie it appears to be a premeditated murder, as the accused was not only waiting for his brother but was also carrying a sharp-edged weapon with him.
