A man was brutally murdered in Ahmedabad by a group of individuals, including a woman, accusing the deceased of stealing LPG cylinders.

The victim, identified as Maraj Marwadi, was a plastic waste collector. According to police investigations, Marwadi slept outside the house of Jigi Kumarkhaniya in Lambha. Kumarkhaniya was not at home that night. When Kumarkhaniya returned home, she noticed that their LPG cylinders were missing and Marwadi too was not found.

Suspecting Marwadi of theft, Kumarkhaniya and her husband Mahendra found out where Marwadi was and abducted him in an auto-rickshaw and brought him to their home. They interrogated him about the missing cylinders, and in a fit of rage, Mahendra along with his accomplices Anil and Amjad beat Marwadi to death. The body was then disposed of near a village at Aslali.

The police found Marwadi’s body and launched an investigation. The post-mortem report confirmed that he had been beaten to death.

Following investigations, the police have arrested Anil Sinh, Mahendra, Jiggi Kumarkhaniya and Amjad.
