Sirpur, Chhattisgarh, October 8 (Daily Kiran) : In a troubling incident in Sirpur, Chhattisgarh, police have arrested three individuals linked to a stabbing that occurred on October 6. The incident unfolded in the Tumgaon police jurisdiction, where a local resident, Rakesh Sahu, was attacked after refusing to give a lift to another man.
According to reports, Rakesh was returning home after dinner when he was approached by Hari Dhruv at Ambedkar Chowk, who requested a ride. When Rakesh declined, an argument ensued. Rakesh called for help from his friends, Paramanand and Tikeshwar Sahu, who attempted to mediate the situation before returning to their workplace at a nearby hospital.
Later, Rajesh Thakur contacted Paramanand, suggesting he apologize to Hari Dhruv. Despite Paramanand’s insistence that they discuss the matter at the hospital, Rajesh insisted they meet at Lakshman Temple. Reluctantly, Paramanand, along with Rakesh and Tikeshwar, followed him there, only to be confronted by Rajesh, Suresh Miri, and Hari Dhruv, who began to verbally abuse them.
During the confrontation, Hari Dhruv attacked Paramanand with a sharp weapon, inflicting severe injuries to his neck that resulted in significant blood loss. Paramanand managed to escape, but the attackers pursued him. Fortunately, Rakesh and Tikeshwar intervened, bringing Paramanand to the Sirpur police station for assistance.
Authorities quickly initiated an investigation, collecting physical evidence from the scene. The suspects were apprehended after police conducted a perimeter search and interrogated them, during which they confessed to the crime. The weapon used in the attack, a knife, was discovered hidden in the grass near Narendra Furniture Shop and was seized in the presence of witnesses.
The arrested individuals have been identified as 26-year-old Hari Dhruv, 35-year-old Rajesh Thakur, and 26-year-old Suresh Miri, all residents of Sirpur in the Mahasamund district. They were presented before a court on Wednesday for judicial remand.
