A property dispute in Thane escalated into violence as a son shot his father and brother, both now hospitalized with serious injuries.
Thane, November 11 (Daily Kiran) : A disturbing incident unfolded in Thane, Maharashtra, where a property dispute led to a violent confrontation. In Guravli village, a man identified as Kalpesh Shelkar opened fire on his father, Balram Shelkar, and his brother, Bharat Shelkar, leaving both seriously injured.
According to police reports, Balram was shot in the abdomen, while Bharat sustained a gunshot wound to his shoulder. They were rushed to a private hospital for urgent medical care, where their conditions are reported to be critical.
Following the shooting, local authorities acted swiftly, apprehending Kalpesh Shelkar. The Titwala police have registered a case and launched an investigation to uncover the details surrounding the shooting.
The incident has sent shockwaves through Guravli and surrounding areas, with residents expressing disbelief that a son could attack his own family over a property disagreement.
This is not an isolated case. On October 19, a similar tragedy occurred in Gujarat’s Bharuch, where a 25-year-old man named Mukesh Parmar was arrested for allegedly murdering his 59-year-old father, Mohanlal Parmar, following a financial dispute over a car purchase. Mukesh reportedly used a grinder to commit the crime during an argument.
Earlier in June, another shocking event took place in Maharashtra’s Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. A man fatally stabbed his 82-year-old father after losing a court case related to a property dispute. The victim, Zafar Kamaruddin Syed Patel, had been involved in a two-year legal battle against his son, Abdul Rahman Abdul Zafar, due to ongoing conflicts over the son’s behavior.
These incidents highlight the alarming trend of familial violence stemming from property disputes in the region.
