Jalgaon shooting: Slain doctor's husband & her ex-CRPF cop father remain critical
Trupti Wagh
's husband, Avinash, and her father, Kiran Arjun Mangle, remained critical on Monday, authorities said.
Mangle (48), a former sub-inspector with the Central Reserve Police Force (
CRPF
), was furious with his MBBS graduate daughter marrying a Std XII pass distant relative against his wishes.
He fired three bullets from his licensed pistol at the young couple during a relative's pre-wedding ceremony at Chopda in Jalgaon district around 10.15pm on Saturday, leading to the death of Trupti (24). Wagh (28) received bullet injuries in his hand and back, requiring immediate medical attention. The family members who were with Wagh at the programme decided to shift him to Pune. "While Trupti died, the medical condition of Mangle and Wagh remains critical. Wagh has been shifted to the Sassoon General Hospital in Pune, while Mangle, admitted in Jalgaon, is put on ventilator support," said inspector Madhukar Salve of Chopda police.
Salve said Mangle, who was caught by the guests and relatives of Wagh attending the ceremony, was thrashed. He received grievous internal and external injuries. The police have recovered the pistol from Mangle, who has been booked for the murder of Trupti, along with his son.
According to Dr Yallapa Jadhav, medical superintendent of the Sassoon General Hospital, the patient is stable but critical. "He has received intestinal injuries and we have treated him for the injuries," Dr Jadhav said.
The police said Mangle was furious after his daughter eloped and married Wagh, who was not as educated as Trupti. "Mangle carried that anger all year round before he sought the opportunity. He travelled some 50km from his home in Shirpur, gatecrashed the event and opened fire at the couple," the police said.
Wagh works as a helper with a Pune-based private company and earns about Rs 12,000 a month.

Over 100 illegal arms seized in 18 months from across state
1 2 Jaipur: From AK-series rifles to country-made pistols and even muzzleloaders, a wide range of illegal firearms continues to surface in police investigations across Rajasthan. This points to an evolving arms supply chain that caters to both local gangs and organised criminal groups. Since 2023, the Anti-Gangster Task Force (AGTF) seized more than 100 illegal weapons and recovered 2,115 cartridges from multiple districts. Police officials said many of these weapons were smuggled along a well-trodden corridor extending from Dholpur, near the Uttar Pradesh border, to Pratapgarh, which shares boundaries with Madhya Pradesh. "The gangsters and suppliers work as a closely knit community; they procure weapons both from Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh," said an official. Since June, notable recoveries include an AK-56 rifle seized from criminal Rajveer Singh and an AK-46 recovered from a suspect in Dholpur. In Churu, gangster Jitendra Singh alias Jeetu Jodi was caught with an AK-47 and two magazines. In a separate operation in the same district, Praveen Jyoti alias Praveen Commando—who carried a Rs 25,000 reward—was arrested with 18 illegal weapons, 16 magazines, and 160 cartridges. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cách giao dịch ETH/USD mà không cần nắm giữ Ether IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo A major breakthrough came in Pratapgarh, where AGTF officials arrested gangster Salman Khan and arms supplier Rakesh Kumar, recovering 14 illegal foreign and country-made weapons, 10 magazines, and 1,880 live cartridges. This operation also led to the arrest of Ramashankar, a key illegal arms dealer in Uttar Pradesh. Police later arrested a UP-based gun shop owner who allegedly supplied ammunition to the network. Officials said that in several narcotics-related raids, weapons were also recovered, indicating that drug cartels are sourcing firearms alongside their trade. "In many such cases, weapons were seized alongside drugs," said an AGTF officer. According to sources, the seizure in Pratapgarh was one of the largest in recent years, with over 1,800 rounds of ammunition recovered, further exposing the supply networks that support criminal operations across the region. AGTF officials said that after they arrested the gun shop owner from Uttar Pradesh, they also began to keep an eye on similar businessmen in Rajasthan. "We found that the accused arrested from Uttar Pradesh used to siphon off ammunition to gangs by forging his record sheets. After that, we decided to examine other gun house owners in Rajasthan," said an official.

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The case has sparked widespread outrage across Assam. The accused, identified as Pratim Bora, used advanced AI platforms to superimpose his former classmate's face onto pornographic content, falsely portraying her as being involved in the adult entertainment industry. The malicious campaign triggered outrage across Assam, with social media users condemning the act. Police investigations confirmed that the content was fabricated and intended solely to tarnish the woman's reputation following a personal fallout. The arrest was made on Saturday night following a formal complaint filed by the victim's brother. Dibrugarh SSP in-charge Sizal Agarwal, while briefing the media on Sunday, revealed that the cybercrime unit's swift investigation led to Bora's arrest. "The accused Pratim Bora used the image of the victim to generate several obscene content and pornographic materials using AI softwares. It was made to appear as if the victim had joined the porn industry which turned out to be completely false during investigations," Agarwal said. The investigation revealed that Bora had utilised sophisticated AI-powered image generation platforms to produce the doctored images. He also created multiple fake social media profiles and Gmail accounts to upload and disseminate the content across various platforms. What began as harassment escalated into a profit-driven scheme when Bora discovered he could monetise the fabricated content through subscription-based adult platforms. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "Initially he was only trying to harass her but when he started to earn money through subscription based adult content using her morphed content he became greedy and began to continue it," Agarwal said. During interrogation police said they had discovered that Bora had earned around Rs 10 lakh through the morphed content. The campaign also falsely claimed she was residing in the US and involved in adult media. During the arrest, police seized substantial digital evidence from the accused, including two mobile phones, one hard disk, one laptop, one tablet, one pen drive, one card reader, several SIM cards, and multiple credit and debit cards. The case has been registered at Dibrugarh Police Station under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including sections 336(4), 356(2), 74, 75, 294, and 351(2). These provisions cover a comprehensive range of offences including cyber harassment, defamation, obscenity, and invasion of privacy. Bora was produced before the district and sessions court of Dibrugarh which sent him to five-day police custody.
