Madhya Pradesh Horror: Man Murdered in Daylight Assault, Suspect Arrested

Indore, Dec 27 (NationPress) In a shocking event, a man was murdered in broad daylight at a crowded market in Madhya Pradesh's economic hub, Indore, on Friday.

The suspect attacked the victim with a knife multiple times and subsequently slit his throat. Police reported that around 20 cut marks were discovered on the victim's abdomen.

This incident, which took place in the Pardeshipura locality, has instilled panic among the onlookers who witnessed the heinous act.

The victim has been identified as Vinod Rathore, a waiter at Guru Kripa Hotel, residing in Ganesh Nagar colony in Indore.

Authorities stated that the suspect, identified as Pramod Yadav, was apprehended at his residence. Initial inquiries indicated that Vinod and Pramod resided in nearby neighborhoods and had a dispute for unspecified reasons.

Additional Commissioner of Police (ACP) Sonu Dabar informed reporters that both individuals had a disagreement two days prior, leading to a verbal altercation.

"The suspect was taken into custody shortly after the crime occurred and is currently being interrogated at the local police station. The victim's body has been sent for a post-mortem, and further inquiries are ongoing," Dabar added.

During the investigation, police recovered CCTV footage of the brutal incident, which showed that as Vinod was walking, Pramod pushed him from behind. The sudden shove caused Vinod to lose his balance and fall onto the road.

After that, Pramod relentlessly attacked him with the knife until Vinod lost consciousness. Following multiple stabs, Pramod slit Vinod's throat.

After committing the murder in the bustling marketplace, Pramod fled the scene. "The suspect in the footage appears to be a professional killer. We are investigating to see if Vinod had any previous criminal cases," ACP Dabar stated.
