In the fatal attack on former BJP councillor Ramesh Raja Parmar’s son at the Sir Sayajirao General Hospital (SSG), Vadodara police have nabbed two brothers of the prime accused Babar Pathan.

Vadodara police previously apprehended five accused, including Babar, who is a notorious history-sheeter. The police have now got hold of his brothers, Mehboob Pathan and Salman alias Sonu Pathan.

Babar, Mehboob, along with another accomplice named Wasim, as well as a few others, were identified as the attackers in this case.

Catching the culprits

While patrolling in Vadodara, a Special Operations Group (SOG) team established that Babar’s brothers were about to arrive near Ajwa Chokdi.

The SOG team had set up a watch following this specific information and nabbed the accused brothers as they arrived.

Mehboob has followed the footsteps of his criminal brother, having more than 15 cases registered against him at various police stations.

Murder of ex-BJP councillor’s son under police watch

Two persons, Vikram Parmar and Bhailu, were attacked over an argument relating to money collection near Government School No. 10 in Nagarwada.

The injured persons were shifted to SSG Hospital for treatment by former BJP councillor Ramesh Raja Parmar, his son Tapan, and other local residents.

Pathan, who was brought by the police to the same hospital, managed to evade police supervision and attacked Tapan using a sword and killed him.

It is suspected that a woman accompanying Pathan had handed him the sword in the hospital, which raises questions about the negligence of police present at the spot.
