According to the police, Dattatray Bhoir and Pradeep Shirose had come to Ulhasnagar on Monday for a haldi ceremony of their friend. To go home, they caught the Kasara original coming between 2 pm at Ulhasnagar railway station. dead Dattatraya and Pradeep and other passengers were sitting on a bench and mocking each other. At this time, a group of youthful men with knives were sitting in front of these passengers. The indicted Amol Pardeshi questioned Dattatraya, misunderstanding that Dattatraya Bhoir laughs at him and makes fun of him. Bhoir advised Amol to remain calm, saying he hadn't said anything to you. As Amol and his three accomplices consumed liquor and drugs, they picked up a quarrel with Bhoir and Shirose and abused them. The other passengers were pacifying the indicted. The four indicted, who were in a crapulous stupor, suddenly started beating Dattatray Bhoir. They were beaten with sticks. One of the indicted attacked the victim with a knife, injuring him seriously. The indicted had set the train on fire between Titwala and Khadwali railway stations. They hovered the other passengers to throw them out of the compartment at knife point. As soon as the passengers reached the Khadwali railway station, they caught hold of the two indicted and handed them over to the railway security personnel. Two others managed to escape. The police have linked the indicted with the help of CCTV footage. The increase in the number of people travelling in the original train from Kalyan to Kasara and Karjat during the night has raised concerns about the safety of passengers.
